Asymmetry in olive

Allow me and the trusty Brickology time machine to take you back to March of this year, to see Nick Trotta (tardisblue)'s wonderfully asymmetrical starfighter, "Firethorn." 

I'm a huge space fan and I love it when a builder breaks the mold and builds a totally innovative spaceship design. Here, it's accomplished with the white bulbous cockpit on one side and the big chunky guns on the other. And smack in the middle is that wonderfully slanted pipe section- how in the Universe did he do that?
