1. Original Full-Depth Scene
The first broad depth surface. Cheeky and the carriage move together, including the basket distortion you rejected.
2. Whole Cheeky Foreground
Cheeky, scarf, and paws move as one island. The basket is flatter, but the lower foreground still pulls at its rail.
3. Smooth Head Depth
Head and hat only, with a broad depth gradient and perspective. This is the version where the head could appear narrower while turning.
4. Rigid Head Translation
The latest correction before this gallery. Head and hat move at constant scale, producing clean parallax but only a limited sense of turning.
5. Gentle Spherical Turn
A restrained side-to-side and up-down turn. The head outline foreshortens very slightly, the nose projects naturally, and one distant light twinkles.
6. Natural Portrait Turn
Moderate yaw and pitch with a more visible nose projection. The head remains calm while two small lights answer the movement.
7. Nose-Led Turn
The head outline keeps constant scale while the muzzle supplies the angle. This gives the nose changing apparent projection without squeezing the whole head.
8. Expressive Storybook Turn
The strongest but slowest turn, with clearer nose foreshortening and a warmer synchronized sparkle. All non-head geometry remains fixed.
