An experience using corrugated metal on outside?

I found a pic of a nice looking teardrop that had a part wood/part corrugated metal skin on the vertical walls. It looked really cool. Has anyone done this? It looked like a smaller version of the stuff they use on sheds/roofs.
Sorry, can't figure out how to post pics.

Might want to cruise through this section on help to post images....

viewtopic.php?p=911290#p911290

There is also "Upload attachments" option in box just below "Edit Post " box (just scroll down some)... This allows individual images to be attached directly to a post and does not put them in the "Gallery"....

you can do it, make sure you have a water barrier underneath the metal as it will sweat on the inside, with today's foams to seal the ends of the corrugations you would have a neat roof, but watch that edge! sleeping in it in a rain storm would be loud.

Curiously, I saw a fully corrugated teardrop yesterday near Challis, Idaho. Second 'drop sighting of the year. I was across the river and it was northbound on the highway. I was thinking it'd be a real pain to work with... hurricane hinge etc, but obviously it's been done! I wish I'd gotten a walk around.
