Vardo like teardrop sized tiny travel trailer!

Hey Rae,

Thanks for joining us.

I'd like to do some modeling and rendering of a teardrop that looks like a Vardo. I noticed on your website, that you've done a bit of studying...

Obviously there's no such thing as a teardrop sized Vardo trailer, but that aside, what would the the key attributes that I should try to include in a tiny trailer to make it more Vardo like?

Your thoughts???

Mike...

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

Hiya!

I think the easiest way to do that would be to show you some photos. There are tons of different styles, but after you look at them for a while, you start to note similarities. Unfortunately I'm not as familiar with teardrop trailers, so I'm not sure how I'd adapt the designs. Within the next few days I can probably post a bunch of photos, but I'll be on the run for a bit and might not be able to do it right away.

I was looking at gupsy wagons, cARAVANS, VARDOS, etc BEFORE THE teardrop. I was thinking on the teardrop because it is light for my 4 cylinder. I still like the gypsy wagon though. There is a fellow artist that makes "Wonder Wagons" on 4 x 8 trailers, there is MANY sites. I do like the vatrdo and it looks fairly easy. Jusst have to reinforce the sides that come out
