Very cool Tyler.

Do you think you could make a version of your space camper that matches the color scheme of the official lego VW camper? Red on the bottom, black stripe, white on top and the orange canopy?

Looks great Tyler, instantly recognizable now... I also really like how the 2 front radar dishes aren't symmetric. The one on the right has that little hole in the center making it look like a different type of sensor. My favorite part is definitely the suspension. Great work all around!
