Hey gang, after spending longer on this MOC, calender wise, than any other in quite a while, and with plenty of stopping and restarting, I finally finished and hereby present my latest creation. It is called the Asimov Terrestrial Explorer. Check it (...) (23 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.announce) !

WOW! Now this is a beautiful model! ;-) I simply *love* the clean design Adrian! And the tracks look very cool; better than wheels. The interior is excellent, as well as the overall colour scheme. I commend you for using only one trans colour for (...) (23 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

(...) That was one of the toughest things about this model, using my admittedly limited supply of trans blue pieces to open things up. I'm particularly pleased with the way the cockpit turned out. I had also thought about using a secondary color in (...) (23 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

(...) Adrian, Great craft, looking at your SNOT building techniques I can understand why it would take you so long. I liked seeing the row of empty helmets, too, people seem to forget about space suit storage in their creations. Thanks, George (23 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks. Let me tell you, 1x1 technic beams are a godsend when you want to do stuff like the canopy over the cockpit :) The helmet storage one of those features that just sort of blossomed into form after I'd put that wall up. I saw this big (...) (23 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks. Not too many people seem to build larger scale ground based vehicles. When most people want to build some giant space thing, they typically go the spaceship route (as the Galactic Shipyard shows quite dramatically). I wonder if someone (...) (23 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Wow, very cool. I like big rover-type things :-) The overall size, shape, & color scheme is impressive, as are nifty details like the conference table, shower door, reactor room, and access ladder. Again, nice work! - Paul (23 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)
