Rember you can always launch the Funbird(Aloha 732), you could put missles and TRY to have a dogfight with a Raptor Or just get some Herpa jets and have a Real dogfight

Welcome to Woodland Scenics! Home of everything for Model Railroad Scenery!

well i have a "friend" who wholesales their stuff so its 25% off retail prices plus free shipping. ill refer you to him if you want me to.

the base grass is just a velour mat (a green fuzzy mat) and to make it even more realistic i sprayed some glue on and added some extra vegetation and wha la thats what you get in the picture. im rather excited about my forestted airbase. its going to look so real.

i think this is overdue for an update. finally was able to work on a little of my airport expansion project.

my tower has received its antenna and now sits inside what will be my concourse building. to the back of it ill make the place where people unload and load. the hole where the tower sits will be a light well. im gonna do some architectural stuff too like what was posted here before. should look pretty cool.

zoomed in on some airport action. removed my monorail station.

sorry for the grain on this pic.




yeeeeehaaaa. i cant wait to get all leds going

yep got the two deck departure/arrival idea from LAX. and no i didnt make him turn away, he was talking to another housemate to my left.

the cars are made by Tomy. micro machines are a little bit on the goofy looking side.

Besides adding a nice touch, you also created the first "earth friendly" terminal building. Rooftop lawns are the way to go in filtering pollutants and CO2 out of the air and rainwater runoff. They also reduce heat and provide a more relaxing place for office workers to enjoy their lunch. Kudos to you kaitanium!!!
