Hmm...  I'd pulled the camera out much further than normal, and used a 
smaller viewing angle (15'), as I've noticed this gives a better 
impression of size when you're close up to an object.  However, the 
camera is no longer that close to the object, so I'll have to try that out.

Wait, do you mean the previous WIPs, or the first alternate (the night 
scene)?

I know, and right now I'm just trying out alternate angles before I fix 
anything like that.

Well, you're a few stories up, though I could put it on the ground floor 
and throw some trees outside...
