Hey,
This is a neat little buggy. I think it's hittin' on the PCS idea well.
Reminds me of my little shuttle from last year:

PLEASE get us some more pics!!
You took a CS model and retroed it. GREAT.
Black tires? s'okay. I'd probably prefer grey but sometimes that's not
available. wonder what it'd look like with 4 LOM tires?
White tires?... NO! that high form of technology is only available on Ice
Planet. Can't get too far ahead. No really, it's very advanced to have
white rubber space tires. Seriously, we'll invent antigravity before we get
all white walled tires. ;-)
a few PCS pointers...
Lessen the number of colored lights. I always put a hint of trans dark
blue.. and maybe a small smattering of red and green landing lights.
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=316860 for example.
Now with a ground vehicle I understand the need for high powered headlights.
Maybe the colored red and green on the side is too much. The trans light
blue stick (I guess it is, hard to tell)and view screen stand out as out of
balance.
Basically, less lights more whites ;-).
Good use of the smll canopies, (get your big Pitsco ones yet? mine are
backordered) Good use of the angled hinge thingies for the shaping.
Keep on Keepin' em pre spacey!

| (...) I didn't analyse it that far actually. The white just didn't look right. Grey is out as I don't have any. The LOM tyres? If you mean this (URL) then nah - too big. I wonder how caterpillar treads would look though. hmmm. That said, I'm pretty (...) (22 years ago, 6-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
