Wow! Did you make that yourself? That is amazing!

Awesome mausoleums! Any how-to links that work? I'm very interested to try to make one of these.

Mausoleum is on hold this year. Look for my ground crypt constructed for an undead knight, Lord Soth. Pics will be up today in a new post. And my Angel of Death statue I am constructing as well makes its first appearance...

I have been thinking of this for some time as well as my garage is also pretty full up of large props already and an fx shop! I used to work at Safety Town when I was a teen in Ohio where they teach kids about laws and such before kindergarten. They always put out these little buildings and let the kids ride in those little peddle cars around them. Anyways, the buildings were easily stored and collapsible b/c on the inside of them they had a hook and eye screw. Ie. you put one hook on one side, it goes across into the eye loop on the other side, making a little diagonal line across the corner. I hope this make sense. One at the top and one on the bottom of each side, the pressure held the building together. Pretty neat. I don't know how you would do a roof though as these buildings didn't have roofs. Maybe someone can expand upon this.
