More !PolyDraw examples

Here are a few of the over 140 possible polyhedra which can be studied using !PolyDraw, coloured to emphasize different aspects of their shapes.
top left: compound of a cube and an octahedron, also the 1st stellation of the cuboctahedron
top right: compound of 5 cubes, with each cube a different colour. This is a stellation of the rhombic triacontahedron

example polyhedra

middle row left: compound of 5 octahedra
middle row right: compound of 5 tetrahedra
bottom left: compound of 10 tetrahedra
     - these last three are stellations of the icosahedron
