Mandala-Decorated Dodecahedron
Image
See http://www.software3d.com/stella.php to download a trial or fully-functioning version of the program (Stella 4d) I used to create this rotating image of a dodecahedron. Any image can be placed on a polyhedron’s faces with this program; this one appears two posts ago, and was made using Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint.

Here’s the inverted-color version, also:

The Second Stellation of a Mandala-Covered Truncated Octahedron
Image
To see what the truncated octahedron looked like before being stellated twice, and read about how it was created, I refer you to the previous post on this blog.
Stellation of polyhedra is easy with Stella 4d, a program you can try and/or buy at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

The image on the squares is the same that appears two posts ago here, its color-inversion appears on the hexagons, and these were created with Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint. Projecting those images onto the larger faces of this polyhedron, and then creating this rotating .gif file, was accomplished with the use of Stella 4d, polyhedron-manipulating software you can try and/or buy at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.

Truncated Dodecahedron with Mandalas
Image
A flat version of the mandala on each decagonal face here may be seen in the previous post. I used Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint to make it.
To place the mandalas on the decagonal faces of a truncated dodecahedron, I used a program called Stella 4d, which you may try for yourself at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
Solar Eclipses and Mandalas On a Great Rhombcuboctahedron

Credit where credit is due:
I found the eclipse picture with a Google-search.
The mandalas are the one in the previous post here (“Seventeen Circles”). I made it using Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint.
I used software called Stella 4d to assemble this onto the chosen polyhedron, and make the animated .gif file you see here. This software is available at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php, with a free trial download available.
