My maiden attempt at building a miniature model

Ever since I saw the model railroad setups at the country fairs, I have been itching to try my hand at building miniature models. Now that I have started a bommala koluvu tradition, I figured I have the perfect excuse to start this hobby. Having bought a bag of model military aircraft at the thrift store, I landed on a military airfield as my first project. It took surprisingly less time that I expected :-)
 


I forgot to take pictures of the first two stages of paper and plaster, but here is the rest of the progression.
