Hi, just wanted to show you the airport I am making..

It is based on.:
- Gatwick Pier 1
- Copenhagen midfield parking for props
- Toulouse paint hangars
- Paris Orly stands

Tomorrow I will post the entire airport as it should be because it still has work in progress..

These are the photo´s of the entire airport and some detailing.. Have to make better connections between the plates and it will take some time to make the buildings..

It certainly does - of all people I should know, I'm still heavily involved in the detailed design and drawing work for the card model kits for my own future diorama. I haven't even got to the building stage yet! It's hard and sometimes you need to take a breath, walk away from it, make a cup of tea or something, then come back to it. As said before a few times, Rome wasn't built in a day

Update of the airport.. Most of the lines are done and need some grass touch up.. Now it is time to make the buildings and get some GSE..

This is my next project, I have taken the Paris Orly plate and put some other around it to make a Hangar Cargo area.. On the second photo you can see on the right side the DHL area with 3 large plane stands, 4 little plane stands a main cargo building and there will be a DHL Hangar..

On the left side bottom you will find the Hangar area.. There are 2 hangars for the B747 and smaller, one already painted A380 hangar and to the far left are 2 hangars for B737´s and A320´s..

If we go up we will find the normal cargo area with 3 stands for B777 and B748..

And on top the Paris Orly area with 2 large stands and 5 little stands which I will use to house some cargo planes or planes who will be parked at the airport for a few hours..

As you can see I have to paint and draw the plates nicely again so they fit together.. That wil be done somewhere this week.. I have also installed some light in the hangar and cargo building (photo will come)..

Hi!
Like the layout very much. A little more challinging to taxi around.
Nice idea to put different airport maps together.
How do you do the markings on the tarmac?
Thanks for info.
Regards, Lars

Thank you, It is indeed a challenge for the cargo planes but I will fix it..

I use Posca Pens 0.7mm to make the markings on the field..
