Too late for FebRovery but in this crazy world does it still matter? Here's my Space Classic utility robot, ancestor of the Power Loader.
Instructions available here: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-69024
This moc was made a few years ago and I was very happy with the result of the mechanism both in its function and in its compact appearance. Originally the upper part was steampunk-themed as you can see in the video, for this digital version I made a model of a space vehicle with the colors of Mars Mission.
Technically it consists of two left and right parts each controlled by an M engine, each part has 4 legs in a total of 8 legs that give the vehicle a good balance and good maneuverability.
Milwaukee Art Museum
The interior of the museum is as shockingly beautiful as the exterior. The light coming through the generous allocation of glass windows illuminates the inner space in a very pleasant way and brings you right into the artistic high you don't want to wake up from...
'Up! More up! A bit higher Jaap!'

Ok, my clean room is a bit bigger and has walls, and Mission Control is bigger too.
But for the rest this is pretty much what set 60229 was all about; constructing a big rocket with space plane, and transporting it for launch. It looks good and I enjoy setting stuff like this up.
I think the spaceplane is a nice nod to the Dream Chaser that is still under construction.
The starship hangars of Classic Space were massive. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space-ship hangars.* The engineers used bicycles, electric buggies and all sorts of other transport to travel about but they wanted faster speeds.
Eventually they modified a small maintenance quadcopter to carry a human pilot. Armoured trousers were a necessary precaution when flying it.
Sadly management decreed that this vehicle was less safe than Colin Furze's belt of spinning knives and banned its use after just a few months.

Thanks for all the positive feedback!
Here's some additional information that is missing from the EXIF data: The shot was made with a Samyang 8mm manual fisheye lens close to Sloane Square tube station in London SW1. BW conversion with Silver Efex Pro 2.

A space to breathe deep, clear the mind and free the soul.
I hope everyone's having a good weekend, I'm a busy bee at the mo but popping into your streams when I can.

Second stage of my Space Marine Army project finished. Now there are two full squads of Marines, one Tactical and one Devastators, a Dreadnought, Land Speeder and a fully remotely controlled Power-Functions powered Predator tank.
Our first prime focus single shots of the ISS! Absolutely thrilled with our results!
As soon as the ISS came into our view (80 degrees West) Simon tracked via the finderscope manually, continuously readjusting to keep in view, I watched on the live view scrn of our DSLR, as the ISS zoomed across the scrn and clicked away!

My entry to the Lego Ideas 90th Anniversary: Space Celebrations contest:
Lego Space to me means exploration, co-operation, and ingenuity to survive a challenging environment, with style! Here I tried to convey that spirit in a Dakar-style race. Each team has a driver and navigator for a wheeled vehicle:
#1: Ice Planet 2002’s rocket-powered car has excellent sat-nav.
#2: M:Tron’s articulated truck features a magnetic drive.
#4: Blacktron’s motorbike is the most agile.
#5: The second Blacktron entry is the fastest around corners.
#6: The Buggoids’ truck has 6-wheel independent suspension.
#7: U.F.O.’s quad features 4-wheel steering.
#11: The Martians put skates on a mech.
#31: Spyrius’ 8-wheeler has arms to move obstacles.
#33: The Exploriens’ solar-powered wheelbike has minimal effect on the environment.
#107: The Insectoids’ caterpillar train has many redundant power and drive modules.
#924: The veterans’ classic trike is always in with a chance of victory.
The Space Police ensure the competitors follow the rules on their motorbike with flashing lights.
