A Technic frame with suspension, working steering, 4 wheel drive, double V8 engine, and working flatbed to carry spaceship.
Classic Space grey greebly covering with large cab with big yellow windscreen.
I started a series back in 2018, called Flipover Series. It consist of 3 flipover rovers which have 2 different completely usable sides. The 3 rovers commemorate 6 eras of the old space themes.
This is the first one in the Classic Space / Futuron theme. It's the smallest one. It has the old lego light system.
On the Classic Space side you can access the battery. and can pack cargo on the back, and it's got lights for visibility.
On the Futuron side you have seats for 6 minifigs, 3 cannons and a small compartment for tools.
The cockpit can be rotated with a knob on the back.
Also the rover has 4 wheel steering with a knob in the back for steering. as well.
An old Blacktron ship piloted by ruthless mercenaries. Any resemblance to a certain ship from a new hit TV series is " purely coincidental "...
It's on Lego Ideas, if you have time and wanna help me, you can support me there

The "Arrowhead" ship from "The Freemaker Adventures" (kit 75186) reminds me of a Galaxy Explorer, so I built a 918 to go with it. Like conventional 918s, it has a small cargo space behind the seat. I'd like to build a 924 and a 926 base to go with the Arrowhead, too.

ABOUT:
The "Mining Outpost" consists of a habitat, an industrial zone with docking station, a vehicle repair bay (or space garage) with moving ramp and working lifting platform, the Legonit Search Vehicle and a drilling rig with docking station and container.
Furthermore the Blacktron Dropship could be included as an antagonist. Please support this project at LegoIdeas to make a classical space theme come true! Thx.
New render of the admiral and the worm with some lighting improvements. Models designed by Pete Reid, 3D modelling and rendering by James Shields.
This rover I wanted to build for a long time, now I am glad that is finally completed.
It's about 57 cm long.
Thanks to Fausto De Martini for inspiration.
Well after "The Cruiser" was done, I was planning on building another spaceship with "The Leftovers". MOCpages: www.moc-pages.com/moc.php/433596
BUT if you look at the last picture on MOCpages, THERE ARE STILL LEFTOVERS! So maybe there might be a 3rd ship "The Leftover Leftovers Something"!
To go along with the CS Outhouse (moon crapper)
There is a collection hose on the other side and the struts on the sides fold down. Personally, I'm fond of the valve in the rear. Ever wonder why there is a "dark side" of the moon? ; )

Since the release of set 70841 Benny's Space Squad that I wanted to do something with it so I delved into Classic Space. (Sorry no trans yellow cockpits like these ones)
The Classic Space Pocket Money Contest is a fun competition, designed to keep you busy over the Christmas break. It's hosted by David Alexander Smith and me, over on MOCpages. This will be the third year that we've run it.
The idea is to get back to the feel of the small sets of the 1980s, which always had alternate builds on the back of the box. Using just 100 pieces (a spaceman counts as one piece!) can you build a space themed MOC and then rebuild it into two alternatives? It's a tricky challenge but even the classic LL918 had less than 100 parts in the set.
Click this link to the group on MOCpages to sign up and keep informed about this year's rules and prizes.

One last turtle!
After all, this contest is about Classic Space... and what better way to give the theme a nod than using THE reference of the genre, the Galaxy Explorer!
Episode 9
Wang orders Fanny and the Robot to be taken away, what fate will befall them at the mercy of the cruel Wang? The Master of Mahem promises a deliciously evil fate for Dick and the Professor, but first reveals his plans to take over the Earth. Using the evil genius of the Doom Ray, Wang intends to steer the course of the Moon into the orbit of the Earth, wiping out all life and leaving the vast resources of the planet to the whim of Wang. Can our heroes prevail against Wang as, even now, the sands of fate slip through the hourglass counting down the last hours before the destrution of the Earth?
Stay tuned for the next exciting installment of ...
PLANET X FROM OUTER SPACE!
Built for the Christchurch Brick show in 2015 this classic space/ Tintin crossover was built to the moonbase standards, in that it has 4x 48 stud moonbase modules.
The rocket opens up to reveal the classic spacemen living their daily lives.
Approx 3,000 bricks and took 2 weeks to build
The hardest part of the model was recreating the LEGO moonbase from the 80's on a 3x scale!
New Space Hangar - Area 78
Finally ready. Spaceship based on Nick Trotta's Elfire. "Handplants" seen by Marcel V.
The Galaxy Explorer by Gerrit vd Merwe seems to be chiefly inspired by the Wolf Leews design. It is mainly notable for a very large interior and a lot of piping on the top surface. This interpretation increases the interior space by lengthening the cabin 1 stud and giving the third crew member fold-away displays and controls, allowing crew members to traverse the entire length of the cabin during flight. The greebling is also interpreted in a way that looks better to me. If built in real bricks, this would be quite a bit more expensive than the original. Original here:

Walkers were used by the Federation ground crew to traverse inhospitable planet surfaces, covering large tracts where exploratory skimmers and other flyers were too dangerous to use.
In later years of the Federation the same exploratory walkers had scanning arrays and other sensors replaced with weapon mounts to defend distant outposts from Blacktron attack.
Inspired by ama77what's brilliantly tiny Mighty Mk3 and in the background of course Legoloverman's brilliantly detailed Recon Walker (now almost a decade old!). These three represent in between members of the family! The old grey family. (did I already say I love old grey?)
The far-out intergalactic space rock band The Highway Stars performing in front of a group of 'nauts!
These were each shot on top of a glass pane, while the black backdrop is decorated with Christmas lights. Each of these photos were taken with various aperture settings and different camera positions, sometimes with certain band or crowd members re-positioned.
First attempt to build some kind of base, and I must admit, it will be a while before this gets better. I have to learn how to work with- and build stuff for minifig scale.
An example: the windows are offset to the left, because at first I tried to build a lift-shaft against the control unit. But a lift for minifigs has to be at least 4x4 open floor, which meant a 6x6 lift shaft, and that meant the lift shaft felt bigger than the control cabin. That did not work out as planned, and the crater plate does not offer as much space as I expected. So off with the lift shaft, and on the the ladder in the back (which in turn works out very well; the lesson about bringing some bright colours in is working).
Another problem is how to build furniture and stuff for minifigs. I plan on keeping the studs open, but I get a feeling that does not go as well in combination with the minifigs as I hoped.
Adding space in the background is a photoshop thing, fun, but I need some more starry things...
