Thank you. I plan on having a good birthday.
BTW... Hope you have a great BIRTHDAY tomorrow!
Greetings Bam! Thanks for stopping by! So far, the new year has been good, I am glad the Holiday's are over,,, they have been very busy! I plan to start working on the gates toward spring when the weather is warmer and the days are longer. I hope yours is going well.
Nightmare, Hope you are having a good new year. Are you working on your iron gates yet? I’m getting ready to start a new big project. I’m going to start building wall panels. I’m fearful the project may be bigger than it may first seem, but I’ll give it a go. Anyway have a great 2012!
Thank you! I am glad you liked it! I always appreciate others feedback! I love the look of blue and green lighting in a graveyard, it gives an ethereal feel the is both natural and supernatural all the same. I was very pleased with it and will only make minor changes next year. The Urn was from Spirit, I thought it would be a great addition to the graveyard this year, so I build a stand for it and placed it at the entrance, in the trail path so patrons will come into direct contact with it. I called your work "Pro" because you put a lot of work and detail in what your doing, in my book, that is pro. I always appreciate the work people do, no matter the budget or skill, to each, they should be proud of their work. Yes, the display is guided by a path, but tour on their own. I use twine and wood stakes to section off the path. I do have a large size yard, which allows me to add or change and make a large haunt. I keep areas dark in between scenes as well. As for storage, I have 2 buildings, 1 12'X10' and 1 14'X10' that are both completely full.
I hope you’re happy with the display because I think it is awesome! The lighting is great (I have to say that because you used the same color scheme I used on the tombstones). The urn or pot with the ghost image on it is very clever and a great way to start. I kept saying to myself “man he must have a heck of a storage unit. I’m not sure why you called my work “Pro” earlier this year when obviously your display blows mine away. You must have invested a great deal of time into the haunt. So a few questions: • Is your display guided or do the guests tour on their own? If they are on their own is there a path they follow or do they randomly visit each scene? • You must have some acreage. Your display covers quite an area and it looks like you have room to grow which is nice not having to be limited.
I am thinking of using Iron Gates and grey brick stone for the design. As for storage, I will have to build them so they can be broken down. Thanks for stopping by! here is a video from this past years haunt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_t-7bE6gzW8 Let me know what you think!
Do you have any designs that you are leaning towards with your cemetery entrance? I suppose there are many options: Skulls, crosses or other symbols Iron gates Moss or vines New or old and cracked Built in lighting Can it be easily stored Verbiage or not I will be curious what you come up with. My pillars are nice, but I would have liked to have added some more cracks. I suppose I could add them at any time. I also could have installed a wall light on the side. Again I guess I still could. Anyway I’m just checking in.
Leaning toward one with an Arch... We'll see how everything goes once the Pillars are started.
Good luck with the cemetery entrance. I had a good time building mine. Will it have an arch over the top or will it be two pillars?
