// Access models of .vox file
IModel[] models = voxFile.Models;

// Access voxels of first model in the file
Voxel[] voxels = models[0].Voxels;

// Access properties of a voxel
Vector3 position = voxels[0].GlobalPosition;
Color color = voxels[0].Color;

// Access palette of .vox file
IPalette palette = voxFile.Palette;

// Access raw data of a chunk
