Another one I'm working on (plus a few others). These screens show ongoing autogen build-up as well as the factory buildings and a few hangars:

Looking great Ed. How did you get that background image?? It blends realy well into the surroundings.

Ed, you are becoming a professional. After you learn it all, I will come up there and you can teach it all to me over dinner. I'll buy.

Thanks Roger, by the way, Birds Eye View in Bing has this airport in detail. So I can go around the entire airport checking the buildings to get them as close as I can to the actual buildings. In most cases they are pretty basic types except for the main Terminal, but as you can see from the pics, it's coming along pretty well. Another couple days should do it.

Hey Chaders,
I use SBuilderX to locate the airports using one of the three tile servers that are in that program, then save it as a map and off I go. There's usually color balancing and some other correcting to do with the image, but that's basically what I use to get the photo imagery.

Hey, that's a deal John. Any time!
