Simple Indentation (Using Optical Illusion!)

I don't know if anyone ever thought of this trick. But this is a use of the Glass trick (setting a fuselage block's length to a negative value via XML to make it transparent) to create the look of an indentation. The idea here is to make that length as low as possible to keep it from poking out too much. And I think it works! You can only (visually) tell it pokes out if you look at it from a perfect side view.

    @Tang0five By resize I mean the size of the faces specifically, not length of course.

    @Tang0five Well the part itself can be downloaded here, and still resized, so perhaps it could still be a useful sub assembly ;)
