Does anyone have an example of an Epic scale airstrip?

I'm looking for some inspiration for my design

There are some new A:I models that may be worth checking out.  Ive included links:


Control Tower

Landing Pad

Landing Pad

Also DRM have some interesting terrain that would look good on an airstrip:

DRM Outpost

The DRM minis might work for the Tau but I need something a bit more "rough" for the Orks I am going to be fielding

I've actually ordered a few of the Old Crow 6mm buildings to act as Tau(ish) control buildings.

I'll need to add a few bitz to make them look a little more Tau like but its a nice start

Principles of war does some aircraft hangers.  They might work as a looted imperial base for orks.

Haven't done my airbase board yet unfortunately..... oh well at least the FW stuff should be out when I go to build it to add a cool control tower.

If my foggy memory serves me right there was an Epic Ork airfield entered in Golden Demon one year. Exactly when or in which country I'm not sure though. However I do believe I've seen the pic on the net somewhere. Might be worthwhile to do a bit of googeling for inspiration.

I did pick up some of the Principles of War terrain as well. It shouldn't be too difficult to make some of the buildings that could be used by Orcs.

I actually have some FW Epic road sections that I may use as well. They are also nicely cratered so they look even more Orky.

I have some Principles of War terrain on its way as well as some Old Crow stuff that hopefully will work well with the DRM terrain I have
