I wonder how it would look if you just turned that missile rack on its sideā€¦

I turned mine in it's side and it looked much better. I also had to trim that weird chunk off the edge.

You ever see The Fifth Element? Turning it sideways is like taking their ancient symbol for air, and subsituting their ancient symbol for water.

The references you come up with kill me. That is totally sig worthy!

It's true! You either get vertical wavy missile alignment, or horizontal wavy missile alignment.

(For the record, the rest of the mini is still very nice.)

I know we're supposed to refrain from simple emoticon responses but:

In most missile packs, the missiles are aligned in a simple grid, so you get straight columns and rows out fo the missile holes. On the T-Bolt IIC, the rows are...okay...but the columns are distinctly and dramatically curved.

In Fifth Element, the symbol for air was a series of four vertical wavy lines, parallel to each other. The symbol for water was the exact same wavy lines, turned 90 degrees. The Thunderbolt's missle rack gave me the same impression.
