A big, clunky, slow freighter.

Does your utility vehicle has an interior, if yes please make some shots of it. I guess it is minifig size!

I really like the side modules.

Wow! I was immediately impressed by it's sense of size; I thought it was a big minifig scale thing before I actually noticed the pieces you used mean it's only like a foot long. Nothing wrong with that, I just thought it was bigger at first glance. Also some great greebling on top, overall shape, and gotta love doors that actually open.
The one thing I didn't really like is the crank knob sticking out of the back. I feel like it doesn't blend very well, although I do understand putting function over form (I do it often enough) but I would have put a sturdy engine or greeble pod back there to be used as a turn knob. Please don't get me wrong though: I actually like it more that you put in mechanical function than I am disappointed by a slight lapse in aesthetics.

Well done!

Thanks, folks! Actually, the crank on the back comes out... can't think of why I didn't remove it for the picture.

I'm thinking of making a much bigger version of this... just need to commit

Ah. that would make sense too.

Do it! Can't wait to see how you would go with it, SHIP maybe?
