Very cool! How'd you do that?

The first thing I did was create an animation of just a rotating box, to figure out stuff like coloring/shading, how each image should skew, etc. I used a bit of math to figure out how to make the rotation as smooth as possible, but it was mostly guess and check to get it to look okay. Then I took a Blue Sun image, used Photoshop to skew it to the appropriate values, and just overlaid the image on top of the rotating box that I had made. The last step was just to add the 3D coloring to the appropriate places. I just wanted to see if I could do it, I'm glad it turned out as well as it did.
