On Break's Super-Fan Builds, Hollywood prop makers come together to build intricate items for diehard pop culture fans. Its latest episode, the team gathered together to build a highly detailed, near-perfect replica of Carl's floating house from Up for one very lucky super-fan's dog.

These prop artists are true perfectionists, and it shows in their work. The roof is covered in more than 2,900 carefully placed shingles, the Victorian details are hand-carved and the fiberglass "balloons" are formed from a handmade mold.

Best of all, the house is elevated on a hidden metal base, which gives it the illusion of floating. But not to worry-- Doug the dog can access his new home just fine.
