  If you want to shear in two axes instead of one, you can do it equally
easily with a matrix transformation, or if you want to do it like above,
then:

    rotate z*45 // or whatever
    rotate x*45 // or whatever
    scale <1, .5, 1>

  It might be easier with the proper matrix transformation, though.
