Default what should I do

I'm planning to make my new airport using the standard Herpa buildings, but I'll make the apron and the groud myself. Do you guys have some tips for me?

i understand you like to have some tips of the people how have build airports but you have to say what kind of tips cause its hard to say just a tip.

my tip is: see that the trees (if you have trees) arent to big.

Default ok I'll be more specific

Í already have a adea for the taxiways, but the stripings will be a big problem, especially the corners

Corners really aren't that bad if you have some good yellow tape. All you have to remember is to take is slowly. I typically sketch my taxiway lines first lightly in pencil so I have a template to follow. Make sure the area you are applying the striping to is free from debris or else it will show bad after the application. Check some of my pics for ideas...
