the small one was built to house/conceal one of my sisters projectors

Dang fine work! You should start selling them. Where do you get the pink foam?

I agree with nevermore, those look really good! I wish I could make something that looks realistic like that!

Your work is, as always, dead on.

The finished are awesome, especially the small marker.

Thanks!

Nevermore, we actually talk about this but I dont think they would sell because it cost us so much in time/materials, mostly time, that they would be too expensive for the general public when they could go to Walmart or something and buy some for less then half the cost. Maybe more serious haunters might be interested but who knows. The pink foam comes from Home Depot and for some reason in Cali it only comes in 2' x 8' x 1" pieces.

Think you could post some kind of how to video? It would be interesting to try it sometime, assuming I'll get the time and money to do so. :lol:

I always love seeing the new props you make each year, Spooky. Your photos always get my Halloween spirit going.
