Scale model control towerby ~RussC1

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Models

When you create a diorama display of airplanes its usually an airport and a control tower is your next needed project after hangars. I have built several different styles of these for different projects but here is one of the most interesting to me. In 1/144th scale, which is very close to the N - scale of model railroading, this is a 1930's style control tower. The style is Art-Deco streamlining and I went through a lot of images of this style to learn it before drawing up this concept. I combined a set of features from gas stations, a movie theater and a actual airport terminal of the period to get this. Made from card stock and bits of gatorboard to reinforce, the model is on a 4 inch square display base.

Dude, your stuff is the bomb-est.

Ever been to the Fantasy of Flight museum in Florida? You'd appreciate the styling of the buildings, which include hangars.

Never have been to that museum. Have a big one a few minutes south in Tucson, plus the big storage yard next door. Airplanes in baggies awaiting another use.

Thanks, and have a great week.
