Mars Explorer

I've been experimenting by combining some Class Space sets with Mars Mission, and came up with this MOC (mostly based on the Surface Explorer #6880):

Comments welcome.

It's nice! but it would be better if it wasn't grey and orange, they don't really match.

The orange is a little high contrast to the old grey. Maybe scatter a few other orange details, perhaps trans-orange instead of trans-blue elements? to help even things out.

Also I'm thinking, maybe one of those control screens could be relocated to the cockpit on top.

And my preference would be to have both arms on the front of the vehicle, so its more of a 'worker mecha' instead of a old style construction vehicle.

I like this, but...

...I agree with this. This is too similar to the base set. I think you should go for a robot; you have the two arms afterall.

Now that is contrast!

Mars Mission orange, my least favorite space color, built in with one of my all time favorites, old grey. Thats one combo that makes my eyes bulge out and head spin...
