Space Port Cliff

Ever since I first built the space port, I wanted to somehow have a passageway go into the cliff wall.  In the past few months I have concentrated on the other direction, thus the floating platform.  Now I am starting on this idea.

First off, to meet the level of the Space Port back entrance, I needed to lower the cliff base platform.  This picture shows the transparent light blue glass passageway that will go through the cliff.

This is from the back side of the cliff.  Again the base platform had to be lowered in the center.  From this view you can see the hole for the LED lighting wiring.

Here  I am playing with space utilization.

Which leads to this layout.  More storage for the jet packs on either side.  Computer screens on either side of the passageway.  These screens will be used to provide information on scheduled missions.

Then we have one more display where the Balcktron Logo will go.

Here the cliff is about 75% complete.  What is different here, besides the passage is how the cliff was modeled.  The Space Port is always intended to the be at the end.  Otherwise the floating platform will not have space on a normal table top.  And it is always meant to be on the left end.  This is more a function of the floating platform and how the maintenance shed is oriented.  Thus the cliff to the left of the passageway has not been mined back like all of the other cliffs.  There is no sand green walkway.  Even to the right of the passageway, the cliff is not fully teraformed.  The sand green walkway ends abruptly and there is still rock there.  

About 90% complete.

Now it is done.  This took a few cups of coffee to complete.

Here is the backside in its current form.  Not sure this is the final detail.

A close up view.  Part of the reason I am not sure this is done, is the blank walls above the computer screens  But there may not be anything I can do about that.

This is what it looks like backing the Space Port.

Here is a side view showing the passageway connecting to the Space Port.

There is no LED Lighting yet.  The bottom floor will be well lit.  As with the the other cliffs, not sure what goes on the second floor.  The hanger area behind this will also be different and have more living space detail.
