Thanks for your comments
![]() To Camber: I use Tamiya White fine primer. It works great. To 454SS: I know , it's a strange way to instal a kitchen. 95% of the teardrops trailer are done this way. I followed the pics of a real one. These are the pics I used as reference. All pictures a copyright to Desert Teardrops ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I just changed some parts (compared to the original one) to give it a VW-look and fit the beetle. Deedlit |

Re: Current project: Teardrop Trailer , complete scratch building (!!Long thread!!)
HI all,
because of the high temperatures , I haven't done a lot recently. But Friday, I tried to change my mind (after the death of my friend) and worked a bit. I've just worked on the dashboard. I've put BMf on ( BIG Thanks to Zelijko Segin aka hrmodeler for the BMF he sent me), decals are on too. I've put a little drop of clear in the speedometer and fuel gauge ( to represent the glass ). ![]() That's all. More courage to work next week. Xav Last edited by deedlit; 09-29-2003 at 05:23 AM. |

Hi guys,
I've worked a bit recently. During my latest show I was so bored that I decided to paint the 'white' parts of my seats and door panels. I used oil paints (winsor&newton) , mixed two or three different colours to have a kind of beige. It took me 6 hours to achieve. After lights and shadows, here is how it looks now: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The pics don't do it justice, the 'used' effect is more visible in real. Next show, still 6 hours to work on, and the grey-blue primer will be replaced by grey-blue oil paint. The wheel arches ( from a Tamiya Beetle ) are now painted, polished and glued on the teardrops. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The beetle's body is ready to paint (two tones) , first layer of white this week and blue next week. Stay tuned ![]() Xav |

Looks good. Never really liked VW too much, but this build is very interesting.

Fantastic!
You've done a great job on the lines of the teardrop trailer. I love the work you've done on the beetle, too... always loved the old v-dubs. Color choice is awesome, IMHO. Can't wait to see more pics, then some BIG completed pics!!! ![]()
