Cool model!!!...what I want to know is where did you come up with the stove? or did you build it, if so, incredible job! I'm thinking that Photo shop had a place in it all, but could be wrong, I have been before. :thinking: Congrats either way!!! Doug

Wow! Nice model. I built one of my tear a while ago in 1/25th scale, but yours has way more detail! I'm guessing yours is 1/12 scale, and the stove, fridge, and mattress are dollhouse items, which are usually in that scale. Very nice work!

Upon closer examination, I see the wheel package in the background. It just looked to good to be a model, just had to be the real thing...great job on it! Doug

That's no model! You can't fool me.

BTW:Where did you get the giant Zippo lighter.
