I made this faceting of the rhombicosidodecahedron using Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator. You can try this program out, for free, at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

An Enneacontahedron Made of Hexagons and Rhombi
An enneacontahedron is a polyhedron with ninety faces. There are many such polyhedra. This particular one has sixty hexagonal faces, and thirty rhombic faces. I made it using Stella 4d, a program you can try for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
Two Images of a Toroidal Rhombic Triacontahedron Made of 212 Dodecahedra
I made these using Stella 4d, a program you can try as a free trial download at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
The Great Icosidodecahedron and Its Dual, the Great Rhombic Triacontahedron
The great icosidodecahedron is one of the uniform polyhedra, which I do not know well. I stumbled across it while creating facetings of the (lesser) icosidodecahedron. This solid has two face-types, there are red pentagrams and yellow equilateral triangles, as seen in the next two pictures.
The dual of this solid is the great rhombic triacontahedron. Its faces are thirty interpenetrating rhombi.
I used Stella 4d to create these images. You may try this program for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

Simulated Geomag Rhombicosidodecahedron
This rhombicosidodecahedron appears to be made from Geomag pieces, but, in reality, it was made virtually using a program called Stella 4d. You may try Stella, for free, at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
A Symmetrohedron with 122 Faces
In this symmetrohedron, all faces are regular, except for the green isosceles triangles. If these triangles were a little closer to being regular, this would be a near-miss to the Johnson solids, but that is not the case. I made this (starting with the last polyhedron in the post right before this one) using Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator, a program you can try for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
