2-D projections of rotating cubes

Mathematica code:

Rot = 
 Table[
  Table[
   RotationTransform[a, {1, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0}][Tuples[{-1, 1}, 3][[v]]],
  {v, 1, 8, 1}],

Edge := {1, 2, 4, 3, 7, 8, 6, 5, 1, 3, 4, 8, 7, 5, 6, 2}

CubeProjections[color_, pr_, b_, s_, h_, w_, m_, o_] :=

  Translate[
   {AbsoluteThickness[h], If[color == 0, Black, White],
    Line[
     Table[
      Table[
