Wow, I really like this one.

It's just so... clean.  Even with a small amount of greeblies, the structure
is neat, yet industrial in a way.

I love the Martian terrain- the way your created tiny bumps and valleys
really convey the sense of soil.  I also like the little 'greenhouse.'  The
clear parts work really well, and reveal the plants nicely.  I echo Gil- any
interior pictures?

You have way too much orange, BTW.

This module was inspired by Kim Stanley Robinson's 'Red Mars' trilogy of
novels and an overabundance of orange bricks. Someone asked me what I was
going to use them for, and I responded: "I think I'll just build 48x48
baseplates out of it." And then, PING!, inspiration!

Some people may notice the distinct similarity to the Arctic Polar Base by
LEGO. Polar architecture has long be recognized as a top design style for
Martian construction. We at Secondary Systems have simply upgraded the
architectural style for our Martian colony.

PS, I would like to apologize to any Martians who may be offended by the
enslavement portrayed in the model. Please remember that this is a work of
fictional art, and the creator does not condone slavery. If any humans are
offended by the portrayal of 'civilized' people subjugating 'natives', then
you need to deal with your own guilt, but not hold the creator responsible.
