Swiss Family Treehouse Model
Sunday, March 21, 2010 at 9:48PM Posted by Fritz I ran across this on one of Mike Cozart's blogs. Hope you don't mind me posting this, Mike. You guys may be familiar with one of his other blogs, TomorrowLounge67. He built this 1/8 scale model at the request of a friend who worked with him at Disney a while back. It models the Disneyland Swiss Family Treehouse of the late 70s.
This thing is one of the coolest looking scale models I have ever seen. I worked on scale models at a few model shops years ago and ever since I've admired a good model every time I've seen one. Excellent work, M.C. More photos here.

The square grid marks 1" squares so you can see how small these pieces really are.

Actual Swiss Family Treehouse Leaf on model
I remember seeing the scale model for the Tarzan Treehouse in 1998 being reviewed in an Imagineering board room and thinking it was well crafted (not a good idea, but well crafted). This one is more impressive in my opinion.
