QXR MANIAC MAGEE

Hi y'all! So after a long and unintended pause, I've decided to try and break out of this builder's block with a little rover project, the QXR (Quinops eXodus Rover) Maniac Magee, named after the Jerry Spinelli protagonist. This rover is basically your go-to expedition vehicle assuming you're not carrying immense loads or traveling on landless worlds. That being said, let's take a look around:





Seen here are the roosterpit, two shuttlepods (lifeboats in an emergency), the EVA airlock door (red stripe), and the suspension (white rods). Yet to be added are retractable stairs for the airlocks, comm and sensory equipment, lights, and flag.





A view of the roosterpit and comms room, as well as the computer system (bottom right). Yet to be added are railings to grab in case of drunk pilots or uncooperative terrain. And finally:





Everything else that might make having a long journey rover worth it: A lab (top left and bottom right), bunkers for four (or eight if you're willing to sleep on top of each other or the floor) on the upper right, and the inside view of the EVA locks (bottom left). Yet to be added are the railings for aforementioned conditions, interior flag, and EVA suits.

And that's my new rover. What might still be added not mentioned here?





it looks like a snake. no jokes.

outside could definitely use some detailing


The outside is kind of bland, but I really like the interior!


is that a carrot
You should have the escape pods close the door when you hit eject, then fakekill to eject you out.
