  • Boiler room pictures

    I always enjoy seeing pictures of everyone elses haunt, so I took some of the Boiler Room we worked on today in mine. I've still got a long way to go, adding some rusted pipes, making the stand brick with some fake flames under the drums, dirtying up the white vent etc. but so far I think it looks pretty cool looking. Let me know if you have any ideas.100_0539.jpg100_0538.jpg100_0540.jpg

    Looks great!!

    We used two red police beacons, anrednfiltered mini strobe and fog to create a really cool fire effect under our crematorium this past october and it was great! It looked real! Try it out?

    Best of luck! It's lookin great!

        looks great! Add some junk copper pipes and gauges on the side to add realism. Maybe a metal vent pipe. Spark fence?? Electrical boxes are a must with wires.

          I'd add some cool cast iron doors on the wall. I reposted the ones I made out of wood from a previous thread.

            We've been working on our boiler room as well. We're just about done with the boiler itself.

            Step 1: Build a stand and install one really beat up projection tv..
            Step1.jpg

            Step 2: add plywood rings


            Step 3: skin cylinder with Luan, listen to creaks and groans and popping noises and wonder if it's going to explode



            Step 4: Add luan strips for detail and install wood buttons to simulate rivets

            Step 5: Use Great Stuff expanding foam mashed to avoid large bubbles to simulate rust bubbles and flaking

            Step4.jpg

            Step 6: coat with Deck Restore product to simulate cast iron texture

            Step5.jpg

            Step 8: install real cast iron doors, and paint acid blocking primer on areas where rust will need to appear...

            Step6.jpg

            Step 9: Rust paint applied and activated

                              That looks AWESOME Brett. That definately gave me some good ideas for my boiler room scene. Thanks! Here is a idea that may save you some labor. Go to a water conditioning dealer. They usually have a bunch of old resin tanks laying around. These tanks are tall and cylindrical made out of fiberglass. You may be able to grab one for free (like I did ) just to get it out of their way. Now detail the way you want and Tadaa! I got a big commercial one however a person may grab some small household ones and use for labs etc.
