[MOC] Planet miners

[LegoMathijs]

This MOC , I built a few weeks ago. It’s a small mining vehicle, which can be used on planets for digging up some ores. The vehicle has a shovel, dril land a radar dish.

I really like the functional, real-world look you've given it, from the side panels to using minifig hands as reinforced supports for the various tools. I can imagine a whole team of miners like this, nicely done

(Oh, and Explorien helmets FTW!)

Ooo, Life on Mars torsos are always an excellent choice, one of the great designs that often get overlooked I find. 

The colour really does ground this MOC into something I could see mining a meteorite in the near future. 

Thanks for sharing this, have you got any others in this "theme" lined up?

Oh nice :). 

The Iron-Mine in the gallery is also totally awesome ..
