Cube Collab is Back!
The Return of Cube Collab
Cube Collab is coming back and I hope to participate more frequently!
So this blog post is warning of what is to come!
What is Cube Collab?
Cube Collab is simply a collaboration of pixel artists to make isometric pixel art cubes. Each collab follows a theme, and sometimes a set palette, and is solely for fun, practice and collaboration.
Cube Collab was created by PixelShorts so give him a follow if you want to stay up to date, participate, or to pay tribute.
Here is a gif from PixelShorts explaining Cube Collab:

Next Theme: Hope
The next cube collab theme is Hope and entries are due by April 18th, 2021.
This thing on.... it's been a minute but it's time to get #cubecollab back on the map! The returning theme will be #hope and you can use any palette.

If you make a cube make sure to let PixelShorts know as he puts them together manually.
After just a few days we already have a couple of entries:

I need to get started on mine . . . as I wait until the last minute often. Any ideas? I might do something with my BagelCoin, ha.
