Wooden Dodecahedron

Inspired by Gary's Dodecahedron idea, I though I would try a wooden one!

That came out really nice Rik, did you use one of the wood fills that come with Xara?

That's pretty cool Rik. I like it.

Thanks for the comments guys and gals.

Frances: I couldn't get any of the XARA fills to look right, so, had to search on the Internet.

love the soft corners very realistic... one question on the realism front... the wood grain should be the same... on all sides by same i mean direction if it was carved? but that is being super nitpicky lol

You think you are more 'nitpicky' than me?!

I can assure you that I did think of that.
If I was honest, I got a bit wrapped up in the 'XARAXONE' bit and simply forgot to look at the grain direction.
I still haven't found a good way of positioning the words on the face, the way I want to.

I will have a look at the grain when I get a chance.

Mind you. I could say that it is not carved, and is made from different pieces put together, but then that might open a whole new can of worms!

Thanks indeed for your input.

Any and all feedback is appreciated.
