Default 1:200 scale airports

Hello,
I used everything from balsa wood to the evergreen plastics to built my 1:200 scale diorama.

Lightbulb I have ideas...

New here and don't know much about it and not sure if you're still looking for ideas to build jetways and terminals, a tarmac and a runway... but I was wondering how big do you plan to make it and does it need to be portable?

For the Jetways, use steel and aluminium.

For the Terminals, steel and concrete.

For the tarmacs and runways, cement and asphalt.

Any other questions?

Yes, I was being sarcastic. My mom didn't buy me anything. But thanks for the heads up.

I don't understand, you've attached photo's before....maybe this will help...when you reply to a thread...if you scroll down there is a section titled "Additional Options" and a section in there "Attach Files"...see if you can do it that way.
If you are still having trouble...go to FAQ at the top of the sign in bar and see if you can get your Question answered there.
If none of that works ask a friend or family member to help.

I'm looking forward to seeing your airport!
