Category:Green and violet skeletons of regular polyhedra

This category is an image set. It should contain only images that have the same style, and should have a parent category that is purely topical.

The images in this set show the regular polyhedra and their Petrie polygons.
Solids with a horizontal edge in front are shown in violet. Those with a vertical edge in front in green.

Those shown below have the same edge radius, chosen so that the biggest solid still fits in the image. There are also images with bigger midspheres, but not for all solids.

This category is partitioned into Green and violet Platonic skeletons and Green and violet Kepler-Poinsot skeletons.

These images have been raytraced with POV-Ray, and the source code can be found here: https://github.com/watchduck/polyhedron_skeletons

Stellated dodecahedron cells (red, magenta, blue, green, yellow) shows sD and gsD in a similar way, but as augmentations.
In that set the core of the gsD is an icosahedron instead of a great dodecahedron.

For the Platonic solids violet and green correspond to red and yellow in Platonic solids with direction colors.

For the K-P solids such a correspondence is not possible, because gD and sD have both red faces. See Kepler-Poinsot solids with direction colors.

The 4-fold view of cube and octahedron differs, so that the Petrie polygon can be shown symmetrically:

Small in great rhombi (renderings of Archimedean solids) uses the same colors.
Elements on 2-fold symmetry axes are blue in both sets. (For green and violet there is no similarity in meaning.)
