My teardrop model

Postby Kaytal » Sun Feb 20, 2011 2:20 am

So I started building a teardrop model out of project wood from a local hobby store. Tell me what you guys think because this is actually a scale model of the one I am going to start building. I only have the walls up and the headboard/shelf wall up right now.

Link to my picasa till I can figure out how to embed individual pics.

On top of all that

On top of my awesome teardrop cake, I just procured a 1998 Chevy Blazer with no engine problems (*knock on wood) for $500 to pull my teardrop. I currently drive a 2005 Malibu Classic LOL.

Good looking model. That's a great way to find problem areas before doing it in full size. Here's one I built of my teardrop hitched to a model of the PT Cruiser we tow it with sometimes. It's in 1/25 scale.
