Default Jfk T1

Hello,

Here is my new JFK project! Thought I'd show some progress pictures before finishing up the terminal. Enjoy!

Beautiful.

Complicated build, but the terminal looks excellent.

Thank you for all the nice comments! The terminal is built of cardboard and tons of cut up electrical tape! As for my other JFK terminals, I got rid of T3 due to lack of space and have only kept T5. I do plan to make T2 to go next to this terminal, however I have no immediate plans to begin on it, at least until I finish T1. (I have yet to finish a single display yet! )

Anyway, today I bought a piece of MDF which will be the base for my model and worked some more on the terminal. Here are more pictures! Enjoy...

Too bad you got rid of T3. It was looking real great. You have a great talent.

Very nicely done.

Was wondering - is the electrical tape how you made the vertical black panel windows?

Thank you! Yes, I made the windows by cutting pieces of black electrical tape since that was all I had at the time...

Absolutely A+. Once this is finished, you will have a hard time telling it from the real thing. Great job Oliver!

So how do we get to yours to distract you with shiny models then steal the diorama.

Oli, to say your work is impressive would not be doing it justice....at all! Athough I'm not into the new stuff (retro lover), this work is awe inspiring. You're still bringing excitement to the game! Thank you for sharing your abilities with the rest of us! Dude, you are a master!

Oli,

I always look forward to seeing your outstanding work. Will we be seeing the terminal in a diorama with some foreign widebodies soon?
