Looks awsome man... I'd love to be as skilled as you. Are you also planning on lighting the terminals inside and apron above lighting? Again, great work!!!

Talking Lights?

How did you place your lights there?What kind of special lights did you use?

I am using fiber optics. All you have to do is drill a hole and place a fiber through it and then attach that fiber to the light source. Using fiber optics is a bit expensive, but it is worth it.

Looks great so far!

I'd like to know the story behind this airport -- if you have one yet. Where is it, airlines, etc?

Nice work Mingjim. I presume that the main material on the terminal buildings is Evergreen Styrene? Looks excellent.

Curious as to the material you used for the tinted glass on the buildings?

Did you use an off-the-shelf ground foil or is that your own? The whole thing looks great. Good job man!

1. I am using Evergreen Styrene from Tower Hobbies

2. I purchased from Plastruct a special tinted sheet

3. All you see is my design and work. Everything done from scratch

Thanks,

Ramon.

This is my own design. I had 1 4' by 4' area and this is what I came up with.

Thanks,

Ramon
