Description
Great work! Exploring the potential to use zdog for data visualization applications. But experiencing an unexpected effect of transparency with the shapes rendered as shown in the screenshot.
```
let box = new Zdog.Box({
addTo: pointGrp,
translate: { x: long, y: lat, z: size },
rotate: { z: Math.PI / 8 },
width: 15,
height: 15,
depth: size*3,
stroke: false,
color: '#C25',
leftFace: color_left,
rightFace: color_left,
rearFace: '#ED0',
topFace: color_left,
bottomFace: color,
});
```
Any ideas why this may be happening?
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by reproducing the screenshot using the provided Zdog.Box configuration, especially its face colors, dimensions, rotation, and depth. Trace how Zdog.Box renders those faces and compare the result with the expected opaque shapes. Done means the cause of the unexpected transparency is identified and the rendering behaves as intended.
