It certainly would look tall, due to the shaping on the emitter, I'd have to have a minimum spacing between them on the stand. Whether it looks wrong or not, we'll have to decide at a later date. Priorities regarding this model involve finishing it to a good standard (there are a few more details that could be worked on, I'm sure) and then trying to convert it to the two smaller versions.
