yesterday comment added cfr for cubes and cuboids, see tex.stackexchange.com/a/30316. this is a community-list answer. other answers to the same question may also be of interest. (it is worth following the first couple of links in the community list just to see some awesome looking cubes. disclaimer: I have an answer linked there, but mine is absolutely boring with not even a whiff of Tolkien about it.)

2 days ago comment added cis i) Am I correct that you want the 3D image shown at the bottom at the end of the post? ---> You then have to draw this with 3D coordinates. ii) I don't know if I understand everything correctly: But if a 3D image is to be created automatically from a 2D drawing, as far as I know, this doesn't work with TikZ (TikZ can't do magic). For this you need proper CAD software.
2 days ago comment added cfr 3d realism and tikz don't really go together. that said, if you basically just need some cubes/cuboids stacked, you can do it reasonably straightforwardly, if not entirely conveniently e.g. tikz-3dplot can be used for simple cases if you are patient. it is not bug-free, but it would work OK here, I think.
2 days ago comment added MS-SPO Such 3D wireframe models aren't provided (yet) by Tikz or its related packages. So you better look for such a simulator, export its result as pdf, svg or bitmap and include it in Latex docs via package graphicx.
2 days ago comment added samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Can you show an example which produces the Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/3d view', to which you passed '{120}{30}', and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it. error? Maybe you are just missing the necessary libraries?
