How about this:

      |
      A
     | |
     A A
    A   A
   /     \
  /       \
 |      _  |
 b     |_| d
 V         V
  \       /
   '-----'

It's not quite the size above, but I just can't draw a
drop that fat.

Thats pretty good, but I will attempt at several smaller versions.

hmm..maybe too small. :)

 /   \

 \   /

hmm..these look more like cannonballs (those ones in cartoons which blow 
up).  Maybe I'll try rounding his more

  q         p

    `-----'

?? I'm not ascii art master, :P...as you can obviously see. (my attempt 
at making it rounder may have made it straighter :P )

I think that is as close as I can get the the requested size...  It's 
just too hard to make a teardrop that fat...

Perhaps if you fill it up:


        |
        n
       d8b
      .888.
      88888
     d88888b
    d8888888b
   d888888888b
   8888888'`88
   Y888888bd8Y
    Y8888888Y
     `"Y8Y"'

But the more I look at it, the more it becomes a christmas tree...
