Thanks Paul,

Yeah on-perpendicular-ness is what I feel to be the key to successful space
MOCs. As mentioned by Gil, the pyramidal shape gives way to the feeling of a
utility vehicle which is what I was going for. As you have proved, research
is the best way to begin a model, along with having set goals for the design
to achieve, as I did here.

Glad you liked it,

Zac

Hi everyone,

After moving house and starting a course in electronics engineering, my Lego
building time has been a little on the non-existant side. I got inspired
after looking over some cool space stuff on brickshelf and decided to go
ahead with a design that I'd sketched out around a year ago.

So here it is, the Mantaclaw Space Service Vehicle:

The model was half an experiment in building with "minimal visible studs"
techniques. I think it turned out quite nicely.

Feedback is appreciated. Enjoy!
