Here's how I'd like the missiles to look. I can't do one like this since it really needs an animation to show an ever growing exhaust trail.

This a pretty fuzzy picture, but you get the idea.

Actually when a missile like this tries to turn (they do seek don't they?) it will look rather silly because the exhaust tail needs to curve as the missile changes trajectory.

I'll make one with a much shorter exhaust tail but in the same style.
