All models, prints and animations on minddesk were made with Qubicle. Qubicle technology presents the ultimate way of merging traditional pixel-art with the 3rd dimension and thus introduces new inspiring worlds to explore. Qubicle is currently not available for download. It is in an early beta-test phase and only distributed to a selected group of people. If you like to be one of the beta-testers or want to stay informed about the development process contact minddesk.
Qubicle is devided into two main tools:
The Qubicle Constructor is a standalone Windows software for creating 3D pixel-art. It combines standard 2D image editing tools with a powerfull function-set for editing 3D cube-matrices. »more
3D pixel-art created with the Qubicle Construtor can be imported and used inside Autodesk Maya with the Qubicle Maya Plugin. It offers many unique features including the Qubicle Rasterizer for mesh-to-cube translation. »more

Das ist echt abgefahrenes Zeug, was Du da machst! Gefällt mir super gut. Weiter so! Wir sollten uns mal unterhalten, ob sich daraus auch marketingtechnisch für unsere Firma was draus entwicklen lässt… Finde die konsequente Verschmelzung von Old-School-Pixel-Art mit 3-D super! Ich denke das richtige Maß muss gefunden werden – manche Modelle sind mir etwas zu pixelig, aber sonst echt geil!
