Speaking at least on my own behalf, though, I would like to see more than one north/south render; and given the release of the one we have some months ago by now, the fact that they still refuse to give us an east/west shot isn't very sporting.

EDIT: I had a chance to look at a hi-res render of the arch's interior and just noticed something cleverly subtle. Its ceiling appears to be concave rather than there being a plain open space.

The perspective angle seems to perform an optical illusion to make said ceiling look to ve above the "horizon line".

IOW, if I were to draw up a crude keyboard cutaway illustration looking due east/west, we'd prolly see something like this:

Also:
The B/W model of the tower offered in an earlier posting here shows a due N/S perspective. The arch ceiling aforementioned definitely has more to it...and I had to look several times to comfirm this. The slightly eastward offset in the render under scrutiny here would likely throw the casual viewer off. It did for me.

PPS: From what I can also see from the hi-res material, the detached core's exterior has some kind of texture to it as well.

Here's (as far as I know) the most detailed render (KIM the perceived/real "dip" previously "illustrated")...
