1941 Teardrop Travel Trailer

[Andria H]

Finished 1/25 scale 1941 wood-paneled teardrop travel trailer, based on a Marketplace find Star Models resin kit that had been started with the body prepped/main parts primered. 

I created a faux wood finish on the body with briar brown fenders, added curtains to the windows and a doped aircraft canvas finish to the roof, and added self-adhesive mahogany crafting veneer cut to shape with an X-Acto Knife to the inset panels as well as the front & rear.

I finished the build with Lindberg '34 Ford truck wheels/hubcaps, a 1929 Model A Ford front bumper as rear bumper, 1941 California license plate, parts bin taillights, and diagonal spare tire bracket.

Very nice build!  Make sure your panel strips are stuck down well and your wheels are always straight just advise..
