Description I get bugged a lot to paint up a locust so I whipped this up. Kind of hard to maintain the unseen look when adding hips, but I like my torso twisting

Locust, 20 ton light mech, LCT-5T variant.
Weapons:
1 Extended Range Medium Laser
6 Light Machine Guns in 2 Arrays

I'm no pro with the rules either, but I think all it does it cause all the machine guns in one array to his the same location. If I'm not mistaken this can mean more than just fitting them close together and putting them on the same trigger, so I made them a rotary cluster.

Yeah, that's what the rules state. Add half a ton of weight and the machine guns are all linked and hit the same location. The rotary array looks like a good idea to me!

Love the way you show the MG arrays spinning. The unseen mechs need a redesign to bring them into the fold. Of all the one's you've done I love your Marauder redesign the best. it's different enough to not be unseen but familiar enough to the design to recognize. IMHO

With the fluff being clear about nothing being clear, I had to go with a vulcan gun styled array

That's pretty much how they're portrayed in the game manual for MechWarrior 4: Vengeance as well. They are described as groups of machine guns mounted together. "The effect is that of multiple machine guns firing at the same time from the same place. Inner Sphere MG arrays are groups of three, Clan arrays are groups of four". The image they provide in the manual pretty much matches what you show here, so Kudos to you for that as well.
