You did great ^^

I've got a few questions if you don't mind answering ;3

- What are your panels made out of? How did you make them? How did you attach them together. (I've currently got my plans on how, I just want to compare ;3)
- The outer wall, that looks like castle/stones, what is that?
- Do you just paint on your panels? Or do you do anything special to them first?
- Your roof looks like it is made of black plastic sheeting. How waterproof is your haunt?

The panels are made from 1/4 inch osb board or 1/4 inch plywood and screwed into 2x3 frames. I would use all plywood because is lighter and alot easier to manage, but you may need to but cross supports in the middle. all are 4 feet wide and just a few inches short of 8 feet tall (so that they could fit in my garage).

They are all attached using 3 inch screws and 2 inch screws depending on where they meet. I plan on posting a wall panel tutorial on my website soon.

Castle is 1/4 inch plywood painted dark gray and the black lines are just done with a small half inch brush. we then lightly applied black spray paint.

Paint is applied directly to walls. some take two coats.

The roof was just giant sheet of 6mil black plastic. It was 25' by 20' which covered the extension of haunt perfectly. We had a very large tent ready to be placed over it all just in case of rain but didnt need it. We have never really built a water proof roof, just prayed for no rain. I believe terror syndicate has a good video on wall panels, construction, and roof systems, but i have not seen it. try terrorsyndicate.com

Hope this helps
