'Star' Tessellations - Type 3

(click on the image for a larger version)

The above edge network is formed in a similar fashion to the Type 2 network.  In this case the faceting is of the cells of a 12, 12, 3 tessellation, replacing each dodecagon with a dodecagram (a 12/5-gon) where the vertices of the dodecagram are superimposed on the vertices of the original dodecagon.  A copy of this network superimposed on the original 12, 12, 3 tessellation is linked here.

Three tessellations can be formed using this network:

12/5, 6, 12/5, Inf.
K:-, B:154, C: 6 oo | 6/5

12/5, 12, 12/7, 12/11
K:-, B:154, C: 6/5 6 (3 : oo) |

12, 6/5, 12, Inf.
K:-, B:154, C: 6/5 oo | 6

In each case, clicking onto the vertex figures above will show the sample cell superimposed on the above network.
