Howto:Modeling Ground Signs with Blender: Difference between revisions

There comes a time when you want to add a few details to an airport in order to improve realism to your flight experience. Every flight start (and ends) at the ground, on the airfield. You generally wont spend too much time there, you will immediately start at the beginning of a runway and be on air in a few seconds. But there are people who like learning how to move on the ground too, and learn how to maneuver their aircraft inside the airport. Well, in this case, having good ground signs/markings on the ground is mandatory, because most of the guiding has to be found there.

Every pilot should know what ground signs to pay attention to during every phase of the maneuvering, prior to reach the runway start. There are paintings on the ground, taxi signs on the side of each runway/taxiway, you have to care about tower radio communications and so on. Here you will learn how to build custom ground markings, the one that are painted on the ground and tell you usefull informations about what you can and cannot do during your ground maneuvering.
