It seems it’s the same problem than in [Rotation and scaling of child not preserved properly when parent is non-uniformly scaled and rotated](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/rotation-and-scaling-of-child-not-preserved-properly-when-parent-is-non-uniformly-scaled-and-rotated/11092) or [Distortion occurs when the mesh is moved from the world coordinate system to another non-uniformly scaled mesh - #2 by Evgeni\_Popov](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/distortion-occurs-when-the-mesh-is-moved-from-the-world-coordinate-system-to-another-non-uniformly-scaled-mesh/38082/2). The outcome is that we would probably need to support shear deformation in our transformations, but this is not something we plan to do, as it would represent a huge change in the code base. Handling non-uniform scaling is always a problem and should be avoided if possible… --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/child-mesh-distorts-and-stretches-to-match-parent-scaling-after-rotation/41212)._
