Arrow Airport Buildings



The other day I have met fellow collector Nik who created some very nice airport buildings from cardboard. I like the outcome a lot. Check the "feature" at http://www.aerotect.com/Ebene2/frm_left.html for more pictures.

ModelSaurus,

the backgroundscenery are made by Faller a producer for modelrailroads-buildings in Germany. But I think there are some more railroad supliers who will made backgrounds too.
I think you can use a poster of a picture too.

I created all the the buildings on the computer with Word.
They are printed on very strong paper. That looks very good with a good printer!!!
If you have one building you can do a lot of variations very fast.
You can build it together with a little practice.

Try it! You need a lot of time, but you get a lot of fun.

If you have more questions, please ask.
I will help you.
