AC_ Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Location: F10 - Arium Major Tags: Land Vehicle Kawashita Engineer's Log - AC - F10 Arium Major It was decided that Kawashita needed a greater presence on Arium Major, a planet mostly dominated by Octan. While preogress had been made by other construction crews, we've been sent to an area that hasn't been covered yet. I've come down to survey the area for construction works with Dave and Lloyd using an old Recon Rover. The interior is a bit cramped as most of the equipment is hidden behind the bodywork panelling, but the computer systems do the job okay. The driving cab is a bit more spacious, allowing Dave a good view of where he's driving. He won't be getting a crick in the neck from looking at any monitors all day... HaHa, got the bugger! What was that? Nothing... Didn't sound like nothing to me. You're not playing that game again are you? Kind of. You're meant to be monitoring the data recording. I've almost beat my best score though. More pics in the spoiler below. Parts of it didn't turn out quite how I wanted, especially the back, but I didn't have as much time as I thought I would this week. I think it actually looks slightly better in real life aswell, I struggled a bit with the photos, again due to limited time... The rear hatch folds down to allow access for minifigs climbing in and out; The interior of the cab / cockpit / driver's area / whatever you want to call it; The roof piece slides out and windows hinge out a little to allow you to reach in to move the minifigs about; View of the interior without minifigs showing the computers on one side; And the interior showing the computers on the other side; Quote
Orange Leader Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Some very nice shaping on this vehicle. The story is recognizable to a certain point. Quote
Dragonfire Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Very nice vehicle. In fact, you stole my idea - I'll have to rethink next week's build Quote
AC_ Posted January 29, 2016 Author Posted January 29, 2016 Thanks for the comments so far. Very nice vehicle. In fact, you stole my idea - I'll have to rethink next week's build Maybe a case of great minds think alike Quote

Well, green for sure... Cool truck! I almost called it a tank, but I guess then it would need treads, although that's not a bad idea... Quote
