Hmmm this is interesting. I would have done what dick balaska suggested ie:

"I would build 6 cubes, each with its own image, and then squish and
union the cubes together.

It also sounds like you're applying the texture/image after rotating."

I had no idea that you could do what bald eagle suggested ie:

"3.6.2.1.6 Cubic Pattern

The cubic pattern takes six texture elements and maps each one to each of the
six pyramids centered at each half-axis, effectively mapping each texture
element to each side of a origin-centered cube."

Thanks for this tip. ;)
