|
| | | Hi everybody - I've just uploaded a bunch of pictures to brickshelf: (URL) Odyssey is an exploration vehicle that can be configured as a spaceship, a rover, or a submarine, depending on what the mission is. It's got a fully detailed interior (I'm (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build) !

| | | | | (...) Awesome job! This is the best box-based exploratory vehicle I have seen. The modularity is great, although the submarine looks like it might have a little trouble getting through water :) I like the wheeled version a lot. The asymmetrical (...)

| | | | | | (...) Cool - thanks! (...) I built the wheeled version first, knowing that I wanted to make it modular, but not really sure how to accomplish it. The result is that the other two configurations (especially the sub) are weaker. Maybe next time I'll (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

| | | | | (...) Excellent, Paul! I have to say that I'm rather envious of your layout - it gets everything in that one would need, but is spacious and gives playability. It looks like even my fat fingers could reach in there with little effort. :) I'm finding (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

The landing gear slide up into the bottom of the pod-things that (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

I envision that Odyssey travels with some kind of support vessel - basically a space freighter that carries extra modules and equipment for changing them out. I haven't built that one, and probably won't - I have a (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
