I love when a futuristic LEGO build treats space as a hostile environment, and this lunar station by Dan O’Connor is a prime example. With lots of unique window areas, you get the impression these explorers are trying to see as much of the alien landscape as they can, while knowing they’re resigned to only going outside on rare occasions. Thankfully, they’ve got a few space suits and even a droid to assist in any outside-the-airlock activities.
The base is filled with some great techniques, too, from the slightly angled tiles to create the impression of large vents, to the plates built sideways into the landing pad to give a sense of printed detail.
And the choice of making the landscape from hues of red and purple really drive home that this is a truly far off, alien destination.
