This is the idea I like very much. It's basically the same thing as we do to make trains rounded, pointed, etc. - ILLUSION.Snail wrote:Keep them 8px wide, and play with the shading effects so that the final effect will be that of somewhat smaller vehicles.
Also, some, mostly older vehicles DO HAVE very narrow bodies. It comes to common sense for artists - and some proper research. I.e. I know for a fact that some very very old coaches are narrower and shorter in height than later models. Why should all our vehicles have 8px or 6px, why couldn't we have both, depending on their IRL counterparts? In fact, that would only stress the difference between modern more "standardized" vehicles and older vehicles.
