Next comes Orbx and we stay down under with an in-depth look at the long-teased Essendon Fields Airport (YMEN) near Melbourne in Australia.
The airport will be released this weekend. Interestingly, it includes Orbx’s own offices, which are modeled within the terminal.
Last, but not least, Drzewiecki Design provided another look at the modeling in progress for Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) in the United States.
