        A great base to move on from. I take it this is just a crew mover rather than a larger support/sampling monster?

              Coming along nicely, I suppose even Mars residents will want an SUV.

                ... this turns out to becom cool again, I'm sure πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„ picture 1 with the steered wheels looks great. I suggest to mirror the rear mudguards backward ? these coarse tires are just perfect!! πŸ‘

                  Thanks!

                  I was going to turn the back wheels but forgot.

                  The fenders are arranged to counteract "rooster tail" spray. I did extend the fender forward, though.

                  I'm thinking about making it some kind of rescue vehicle.

                    You know, that would make a perfect school run vehicle or dare I say it, stupor market trip special.

                        Looks already really cool Bryan! Maybe I would remove the door that is sticking out on the side in between the two wheels. I feel it disturbs the dynamic shape of the car a bit.

                        Otherwise really cool shape!

                                Definitely understand where the design process comes from. I have an organic development with my cars too, what looks wrong gets changed. The air lock being omitted makes it looks more earth bound than mars bound but there are plenty of harsh environments here too.
