Hey padadu, just wanted to say I love your work! It's so hard to find free voxel assets that are actually .vox files, but you have a really cool variety of assets on offer. I was also delightfully surprised to find the golem, dragon, and cannon in this set that you took the time to color, and I have to say they are amazingly well done!
If you don't mind me asking, do you have a particular program or method you use for coloring .vox models? I mostly use VoxelShop, though I'm also somewhat familiar with MagicaVoxel. But it just seems insanely time consuming to color anything with a diverse/realistic looking palette like you did here. I'm sure there HAS to be a more efficient method than coloring 1 voxel at a time lol, but the only real shortcut I've discovered is importing pixel art PNGs into Voxelshop (which upload as a flat, 1 voxel thick model), and then more or less wrapping that around the surface of whatever plain model I'm trying to color. But that is still pretty slow, and requires a lot of fiddling and shifting individuals voxels around...
Anyway, thanks again for sharing your work, and I'll keep an eager eye out for any future uploads from you!
As for the program, all my models were made in MagicaVoxel, and regarding the textures, I imported the PNG file. As you can see from the other asset packs, most of them don’t have textures, precisely because it’s not easy and it’s time-consuming. Unfortunately, many personal commitments have kept me from posting new asset packs, but I hope to get back to it soon!

Thank you so much, and sorry for the late reply!
