TWA Terminal

oliJFK · 06-15-2009, 08:32 PM

So I decided to get back on this project now that summer is here. Almost done with all construction so I decided to post some pictures! Next will be spay paint, windows, etc. Comments and suggestions appreciated! Also, if anyone has good ground marking photos or plans I would appreciate it since I'm not familiar at all with the parking layout.

Enjoy!

ps- excuse the blotchiness from my dirty hands

Flyin' Hawaiian · 06-15-2009, 08:36 PM

Amazing! truly a materpiece!

Carlos Perea · 06-15-2009, 08:39 PM

Looking great so far! What'd you make the terminal out of?

Thank you! The terminal is all made of museum board - (a nice cardboard) while the tubes are bent wood dowels.

dylan · 06-15-2009, 09:02 PM

Oli, you don't post her NEAR enough! But just remember, I got dibs on this!

hehe, I don't know, I'm starting to get attached to this one Dylan! If I may, here are two other abandoned projects I started before settling on this one - if anyone is interested

CDG - 2A and 2E - 2E comes with the digital window file

vegaswoods · 06-15-2009, 09:44 PM

Great work!

Mingjim · 06-15-2009, 11:19 PM

Amazing work!!!!!!!!!!!!

PHX69 · 06-16-2009, 02:07 AM

Your terminal is looking very nice! I really like the complex curves on the roof, that looks like it would be hard to do and to replicate consistently. I am looking forward to seeing this one completed with all of the different TWA aircraft at the gates! I have always like the TWA paint schemes from the twin globes to the final colors.
Keep up the great work!

BoeingFlyer11 · 06-16-2009, 03:06 PM

Unreal. Words cannot describe. Thank you for posting. I can't wait to see it finished with all of the TWA's sitting proudly at their gates.

airbro · 06-18-2009, 08:09 AM

Nice. Ha Its winter over here lol.

oliJFK · 07-02-2009, 02:31 PM

So I finally got a board for the model and painted everything white so I decided to go ahead and post a 360 view of the terminal.

I'm still modifying the window decals but those should be done soon!

Yes, its a nice cardboard that gives you nice curves and it can be sanded, painted, etc. Its normally used for mounting art but works great for architectural models. I would advise against foam core although it does have its uses.

Very, very nice! Stunning work on those complex curves. I too am keen to see the final of this one.

Jboulin94 · 07-02-2009, 05:09 PM

Oli, CDG is stunning!! Where did you get the texture, and how did you make the curves?

Prestwick Pioneer · 07-02-2009, 05:44 PM

Dues paid on 400SH hell u r good at this stuff

dylan · 07-02-2009, 06:31 PM

Hmmm, I don't know Brian.....the baggage claim ceiling height was 14'. Yours look to only be 13.98 feet high. Better start over and send this sub-par example to me.

gospodin · 07-02-2009, 06:45 PM

This is some great work on a very complex architecture. But have you noticed, that the building looks something like some kind of cartoon character with its arms over its head, one hand splayed out and the other with two fingers like a peace sign. Sorry, it's my weird imagination at work.

Junkcollector · 07-02-2009, 11:42 PM

OliJFK,

Wow...Saarinen would be proud~ Need pics?...Just Google it. There is hundreds to choose from!
PS: Is there any way you could make the windows out of plexi instead of solid? The windows are important to the design. Either way, looks great.

Herb

pilapt · 07-03-2009, 05:16 PM

Where did you get your museum board?

oliJFK · 07-03-2009, 07:23 PM

Thanks for all the nice comments guys! Today I added some color with the tarmac and windows.

Stay tuned for more updates tomorrow!

Herb

I just need photos of the lines on the tarmac, etc...
I also didn't opt for plexi because not only did I think it would look unrealistic, but it would have also been nearly impossible to support the complex roof without a visible mess on the inside.

Just go to any decent art supply store in your area such as Pearls, Utrecht, etc..

Fantastic!

Keep posting more pics.

carlo905 · 07-04-2009, 05:20 AM

Amazing work !!!!!! never seen anything better

oliJFK · 07-05-2009, 07:13 PM

Here we go!

A little bit of progress with the roadside and tarmac.

Enjoy! or not...

dylan · 07-05-2009, 08:26 PM

Excellant! Looking superb! What technique do you use for your roadway lines? Looking for something easier than what I've been doing.

oliJFK · 07-05-2009, 08:30 PM

Thanks Dylan!

The roadway lines are made with Chartpak's Graphic Tape. After placing them I seal them with a fluid matte medium so they don't lift.

Hope this helps!

A Tupolev · 07-05-2009, 11:05 PM

Amazing detail on this terminal. Great job.

Thomas32125 · 07-06-2009, 09:51 AM

Can't wait to see it with planes and GSE! Great job, well done!!!

Junkcollector · 07-06-2009, 10:57 AM

Looks amazing. Such precision-

I dig that. How are you generating parts and maskings for roadways, etc?

dylan · 07-06-2009, 11:31 PM

Brian, You've heard it from everybody else....now me: THANK YOU for your model airports. They have raised the bar and given us all great ideas to shoot for. Just when the forums couldn't get any more droll and boring, you've reinvigerated us and got us all excited to work again.

One more stupid question.....this liquid matte medium, what the hell is that and who makes it??!! I aint too learned on all this s'phisticated stufffff.

A Tupolev · 07-07-2009, 01:42 AM

The TWA Terminal has got to be the most beautiful terminal ever designed.

oliJFK · 07-07-2009, 08:17 PM

Thanks guys for all the feedback! I haven't posted any progress because I've taken a few steps back by removing all the roadside I posted earlier (which was based on the post 2001 IAB completion) and recreating the roadside as it was through the 80s and 90s - now featuring a lot of grassy areas. Yesterday I also bought all the jetways for the terminal which should be up soon a long with other details such as metal etchings, etc....

Thanks Dylan! The liquid matte medium is something I used in design school to seal edges of tape in order to prevent paint from slipping underneath. I discovered that applying it over pin stripe prevents it from lifting while drying completely clear. Although I'm not sure if there is a better alternative, it works well applying it with a small brush. I've attached a picture of the one I use which is made by GOLDEN.

Hope this helps!

PHX69 · 07-09-2009, 04:30 PM

Wow, it must have been hard to remove all of the roadway and striping! They looked really nice! The roadways and striping on your terminal were the best I have seen. I know you have heard it many times before but the work you did on the terminal building is first class! I dont think it can be done any better! Especially the complex curves of the roof! I have been looking at all of your pictures of the progress and am eagerly awaiting the next photos!

Prestwick Pioneer · 07-10-2009, 05:34 PM

Wow Brian, this is just ****in incredible, no other words to describe it. I just look at the boards in the house an do bugger all with them. Thhis is truly a masterclass. Kudos indeed.

Junkcollector · 07-10-2009, 09:07 PM

Oli,
Could you post links to your other terminals....had one for a second, but lost it.

Thanks,
Herb

satyakir · 07-11-2009, 09:48 AM

Oli- haven't been here in a while but this is brilliant!!! Glad I came back.

Dylan - good to see you going strong.

lollomz · 07-13-2009, 04:30 AM

Amazing, simply amzing, I'll keep watching your progresses!

Lollo

oliJFK · 07-13-2009, 06:35 PM

Okay!:

Not much forward progress but a lot of changes. I repainted the whole terminal, applied new windows, redid the roadside, repainted the board and installed the jetways..

Now it should be more in line with 80s-90s which are the main decades I want to replicate with this diorama.

Next will come all the small details and tarmac markings. I might also make some more changes to the roadside as I find new and better images.

Enjoy!

ps - Thank you for all the positive feedback!

justcallmesokka · 07-13-2009, 07:04 PM

wow. now thats an airport

intrigue_73 · 07-20-2009, 02:18 AM

That is so beautiful.

STEVEJ · 07-21-2009, 11:44 PM

Your work is just stunning. Don't know what else to say. I have to ask though, where do you get your references from? I researched this terminal for months and found very little information outside of the main terminal building.

Again outstanding work ..............

Thank you Steve! Means a lot from someone who makes stunning dioramas themselves!

As you said, there is very little information so I had to compile dozens of images from flickr, airliners.net, the NYU and New York Public Library, etc. a long with aerial imagery in order to make the flight wings and tarmac as precise as possible. The flight center itself was made using blueprints by Saarinen found in books.
However, I must say the most difficult part to figure out was definitely the ground markings. I deciphered those by looking at photos and google satellite images that revealed the faded lines I wanted to replicate.

Anyway, here are some updated photos of the diorama with ground markings and some dirt and grime as well as a teaser TWA 747.

Enjoy!

lufthansa747freak · 07-22-2009, 04:39 PM

WOW thats pretty nuts there, amazing work

I've got a question though...for the airport yellow taxi lines and marking are you using Pactra Trim Tape? and what thickness?

I'm doing an airport in 1:500 and can't decide if 1/16" looks too big or if 1/32" is the way to go, thanks.

oliJFK · 07-22-2009, 04:45 PM

Thanks Lufty

1/32" definitely. Especially considering the fact that your airport is 1/500.

JTS97Z28 · 07-22-2009, 05:23 PM

Wow that is just unbelievable!!! I have always been a TWA fan considering I grew up flying them all the time (mainly through STL).
Just curious if you plan on doing any lighting at all?

Thanks JTS! As far as lighting, I highly doubt it. Too complicated and costly. I'll stick to day shots!

I might also make some more changes to the roadside as I find new and better images. Enjoy! ps - Thank you for all the positive feedback! Attached Thumbnails
