    yes you can retexture but is should still be recognizable as the qube

    Hey, sorry, just to check-- does it need to have the 'april fools' text on it to keep it recogniseable? Or could we pick one of the many varieties of grey and turn up the metalisisation a bunch or use glow effects like kindred's comp promo?

     Well some people are changing the shape into a godless sphere, that's fine so long as they keep the texture. Otherwise, you can do whatever you want to it providided it keeps the cube shape.

    In Spanish or Italian would a female cube be a cuba?

    I beg your pardon it would be quba because this here is the qube not just some regular cube

    So we can retexture it however we want? I have an idea in my head, but it involves very much retexturing it.

     Yeah go ahead. I've been painting face on them and retexturing them etc. Just so long as it keeps the cubic shape.

    If you're not going to keep the shape, keep the texture. It just needs some kind of signifier that it was originally a qube.

    or is it the one referred to by @JayVersluis (here)

    or should we create our own primative by ourselves (*as I suspect - going along with the joke)?

    Would love to know and enter. thank you.

    Qubetans! What is your proffesion?

     

     

    This silly thing was made entirely with qubes. Most qubes were harmed during the production of this scene, either stretched or squashed mercilessly.

    All cubes are male in those languages.

    Qube Cafe

    My order is up at the Qube Cafe. I think I'll come back for one of those yummy Qubecakes after I finish this Quben, if I still have room.

    OK, let's get this ball rolling...

    I think the Qube is best rendered large and at SubD 4.

    A cube is just a ball in the universe where π = 4

    I only have an undergraduate degree in mathematics. We didn't cover that universe. frown I guess I stumbled upon it by accident or followed Martin Gardner into another dimension... or something... [queue Twilight Zone music]

    When you say rendered in daz, does rendering in daz with the octane plug in count?

     Yes - 3DL, Iray, Octane, anything really. I can't even prove you rendered it in daz anyway. I just like rules.

    Love that statement 

    Any limit to the number of entries allowed?

    No limit, but me and welly will only pick one from each artist to be eligible, and it will be our favourite by them.

  • Okay, thank you :-)

    1st render, hmm failed. For some reasons some light sets think we want to see blinding white disks in them, nope.

    So here's my 2nd render. Not done for 'hours' 'cause this is laptop which I need to keep working for awhile yet ;-)

    The idea: April Showers :-) {And I have no idea what that thing with teeth is - but it reminds me of some of the clouds we've been seeing.}

    Well, guess not, uploader claims that "no file data could be found ...." ... guess it was over the limit. Back in  a sec. Resized it down a tad.

    I wanted to render a P ube, a hairy Qube but fear that's not allowed

    I do not comment on the forums much anymore ... but I would like to jump in and say I absolutely love the many zany directions this theme is going in. A lot of good creativity (and in some cases a show of skill) going on here. Keep up the great work everyone!

    I hate to mention RENDOxxx but I think they have the anatomical geographs for the cube.

    you can now open the image in a separate window, copy the adress, go to edit your post where you can insert the image with that little image icon, add the address there, please adjust to maximum size of 800 pixels on the longest side and safe, keep the attachment.

    you can do the same with an image previously posted in the gallery
