The Marsokhod-0 Rover

Based on the Luna Rovers I used an existing 3D Model and changed it to turn it into a derivative Mars Rover Version by adding additional cameras and scientific instruments.

The fictional project that runs this mission is the Project Red Cosmos or (Проект Красный Космос**).**
