I've been mulling this over for days and I seem to have builders block... some time in the middle of the night during a delirious baby feed inspiration came to me and I knew what I would build.

Now I've forgotten again. Really glad of that long deadline!

For resources; we come in peace ...shoot to kill. A miniature tank and possible alien ground forces eliminator, as is the norm a remote controlled war machine ,and a possible gold ore deposit

Time to mine, a heavyhaul tipper for pre extraction, microbuilding is fun but bigger is better ...like a good 6-wide!

Micro build was inspired by the 'Tales of the Space Age' builds by @john.carter.creations

I'm seeing a cutsie deathstar ,the loneliness of space is felt as usually your ground is busy and colourful.

I'm not good at space stuff - so I created a moc of the earth part of things!
This is my moc of Mission Control for Apollo 11.

Love the data above the earth map. Sooo many types of screen and keyboard. Where does one get the pens? Feels like the old footage of mission control

Too much temptation to want the physical build resulting in expensive parts you don't already own

The pens look like the lipsticks from Friends sets. They work really well in this scene.

A ship from an old police boat hull, a lack of volume of uniform colour , TIE pilot out of his depth , C3PO as captain and only fish and sausage for food this mission is doomed
