Peter Richardson created Voxelizer 1.0 for Autodesk Maya, which will take a base form and “volexize” it with a set number of boxes, you know for that 8bit look the kids are doing these days. This is really sweet! And in trying Voxelizer 1.0, I found it pretty straight forward to set up and use, with the results being pretty consistent. Peter offers a downlaod, so why not try Voxelizer 1.0 right now?! Download it here, and try the test file here.
