I found a blank art book, so I’m drawing my universe.
It’s not like anyone else is doing it.
I’m still working on all the detail of the station. Trying to make it look like it was patched together out of whatever was close at the time.
Amalgam Station is technically in Cuidgari space, being in the Kuiper-belt range of the Cuidgari Primary Solar System. It has, however, had numerous owners in its expansion-pack past… including the B'dauss. It masses the same as a Dwarf Planet, but is significantly larger because Dwarf Planets rarely have shopping malls, living space, farms or cinemas inside them.
I did draw an earlier version of Amalgam Station, but this is the one where I worked out which fins did what.
“Up” is an arbitrary concept in space, but Station-up is the passenger fins. Cargo is generally offloaded from one ship and loaded on to another, so keeping that traffic out of the way of primarily passenger vessels is a priority.
Docks and locks, at the ‘tail’ of the station, is where most of the repairs or building goes on. Yes, Amalgam Station farts out new vessels on occasion.
