Everything got a bit narrower. This isn’t a bad thing – there was plenty of dead space in all the panels. The only bit where it feels like a serious compromise is panel two, having lost a bit of the speakers and Tantek’s shadow.

One bit of weirdness – for some reason the starboard rear landing strut was outside the vehicle in the original render. Somehow, I never, ever noticed. Makes me wonder what other goofiness I’ll be bumping into down the line.
