This question mark block has extended its form into the fabled third dimension! This mysterious realm of depth is unexplored by either 8-bit explorers or Perler bead artists. This bold scientific discovery promises to usher a new age for Super Mario Bros. crafts!
Shown above, an artifact from the third dimension, looking very much like one of our own question mark blocks, but somehow composed of many two-dimensional blocks working in tandem to form a strange array of squares. These squares exist simultaneously in the normal two dimensions and in the newly-discovered third! This is a hypersquare.

XD at the description
i'm just wondering how they did it. ive worked with perler beads before and building a 3D object with them would be either very time consuming or very frustrating.

I like pictures of game-related perler bead crafts because I see them as pixel-for-pixel instructions on how to design a shirt in Animal Crossing: Wild World.
Good examples here:

Although I'm guessing they wanted the opportunity to play with more textures, I've always imagined ? blocks as having a ? on all sides except the top and bottom...
Still very cool :)
