I think an asteroid. I dont know what boards you've got but if this isn't going to be you're main bord how about making it a bit different like expand foam filling underneath and building out constructs (a bit like a junk/ork rock) and mounting it on something that makes it look like its floating, like a tripod.
I know it's crazy but it would be realy cooooool.

I would go the asteroid base use polystyrene to pack out the raised end and where the hole is at the top put a base entrance Off to one side (or even both) make a landing pad that comes out to one side with a several levels (use the platformer type kit should work well)This should hopefully make a very interesting board to play on

Keep it rocky and barren, but plan to dress it up to use it for several different settings. That is something to define an entire game or campaign. A really interesting piece!
Keep the painting basic. A foundation colour and some localised washes. After that, it can be anywhere! All you need is to pile on some scatter terrain and it would ready to play.
That big piece already offers lots of cover and interesting ground to fight over, but why are people fighting there? Think about making a pile of useful terrain pieces to place here and there. CD's and smaller objects can form the base for these.
Consider making some industrial stuff, barricades, clumps of boulders, small buildings or check-points, a prospecting camp, a bunker a shipwreck and even some greenery.
A big bag of ordinary model-rail lichen could turn that 'rock' into a lush hill.
I love the excellent idea of a landing / industrial pad from Platformer pieces. If you plan that right, it could be removable for storage.

is it solid or hollow? if it is solid i would cut a 'v' road on both sides of the top pond and build a door on the top wall to look like a mine or underground bunker. I would also cut a road down on the left side (looks the easiest side) down to the bottom for more acess. I would also use some foam and sand to build up some dirt around the lower rocks they seem to protrude too quickly out of the ground so having some more dirt at the base will give them a bit more of a grounded feel That would make it a better terrain feature to actually wargame on with 3 points of access and something to possibly fight over.
