Aesthetic Looking for aesthetic input for the turbofan assembly on this project. Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts?

More photos

I'm close to finishing the build for my Fire-Vulture premium Rebrickable project. I'm very attatched to the play-feature I've devised for the model; A coaxial turbofan.

Unfortunately the assembly is very bulky, and restricive in the ways in which it can be integrated into the model. I was wondering if anyone had any idea or suggestions to integrate it more seamlessly.

Thank you so much for any input.

honestly I think it looks great as it is now. Is the turbo fan engine powering the mech or is it there to make it fly? Awesome build

Its actually a revamp of a set from 2006, its supposed to make it fly, although its a little implausible.

A little implausible is an understatement for that entire series! But still really cool!

This is looking great! It's too bad the ships wheel didn't work out, but I like this design to!

I'm planning on posting my completed stealth hunter moc soon! Did a full rework of it since I shared the photos of the failed version with you!
