[CSE] The Lunar Hopper

[Ace of Space]

This little rig of a ship was mashed together with spare parts from other spaceships to become a quick surface hopper able to, as the name implies: hop on the surface of the moon with its one massive engine able to give big jump boosts at a time.  The two back wings help the ship glide more under the lunar atmosphere to give a softer landing after every jump.
It later became a popular ship to travel over rough terrain somewhat quickly with a little bit of fun added to the ride.

It also comes with two small rovers behind the cockpits for the astronauts because when you travel in space, you always need a rover for convenience.

Red astronaut: Get ready, things are about to get bumpy...

This was an interesting challenge for me because I used 90% of the pieces from the Galaxy Explorer so it gave a few fun limits.

This is so funky, I love it! I’d never be able to come up with such a bonkers shape and to make it look this good is just on another level. Love the colors too, excluding yellow highlights here totally works! I now wish more people made ships without it because this is just as cool of a color scheme.

This is really unique. Looks like it's made just for fun.
