I used Stella 4d to make this image, and you can find that program at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
These were all derived in various ways from the polyhedra seen in the last two posts. The rest are smaller at first, but each can be enlarged with a single click of your mouse. Each of them has icosidodecahedral symmetry.

All of these were made using Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator, which is available at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
