Race for the Crystals!

Two very different ships arrive on the famed mineral-rich planet of Xxxr'd at exactly the same time, and their crews race to be the first to claim the crystals!

I was keen for the Earth Rocket to have three way symmetry, whilst also still keeping the diameter small, so that it could look tall and thin even with the area constraints of this contest. Once I'd figured out a way to do that, I then had to find a way to fill out the areas between the three 'faces' of the rocket, which involved lots of sideways building.

The Alien Saucer originally had four legs, but they got in each others way, so that got reworked and also ended up with three legs.  Both ships needed a ladder for the crew to get to the surface, so there are two different ladder styles - I guess the aliens have shorter legs than the humans!

Depicting the alien and human crew (or are they robots) with arms outstretched in tiny scale was difficult - if I had more time I'd rework this part.

Hope you like it, comments welcome!
