Thread: Horse Drawn Hearse Completed :)

Tweet

Here is our hearse all done , very proud of it for first time builder prop challenged people it isnt very elaborate but i like it , and it as the look i wanted .......

we used clear plastic mica (film) to make windows (to protect mainly from rain inside) as plexiglass is 99$ a sheet and glass even more expensive ....i am not thrilled because it reflex alot more so we might end up just pulling it out....will see

next prop is a coffin inside ......




special thanks to evilbob whom from stumbling uppon his web site last spring , is where i got my idea to build a hearse this year since i totally tought his was so awsome and also from building it on a table for more discrete support .......so far it asnt fallen down even with the very strong winds we had today .

Witch- GREAT job and once again I MUST make one for next year! I can't wait to see it incorporated into your haunt.

Looks great!! Thanks for the mention!

very impressive!!

Great work!

OMG that is amazing, great job!

Ok, quit showing these! Now I want one for next year....but already out of space to store things...Seriously, great job...add a little fog and darkness and it will look even spookier....

WOW! That is IMPRESSIVE!
Is there a how to posted or at least dimensions of the material! Very nicely done! Also can't wait to see it used in your haunt!

Very nice work!

thanks for the nice comments

scareisburg , i have been planning the fog underneat it from the start......we will figure it out this week while building the coffin.....i want to hide speakers in it too for sound....i am anxious to see the final effect , i am making a widow dressed in an antique black mournign dress to go in this scene .....

if it wore up to me i would display it 365 days a year hehehe

jdubbya , the plywoods are at their full size , 4 x 8 , we used 7 sheets , and about 10 2 x 4 for the frame and the wheels i got for 20$ each + ship cost (their garden ornaments) their 36 inches ....got the lanterns at walmart on sale for 38$ ,their motion sensored , we used i think 10 decorative moldings ,4 finials on the roof , we used 16 feet fabric from a liquidation place , the gold pompom are from the dollar store , oh and found a re enforced table at the surplus store for 20 $ .......
