it isn't quite finished yet, it will have fog, sound and purple rope lighting when completed.

oh, thats my son in the picture, BTW

[Lagrousome]

That is great!
Now where in the heck do you store it?

[Fright Zone]

That LOOKS cool. It reminds me of what they do at Cedar Point. They made a crashed UFO. They just put broken cement around it. It looks similar to yours though:

Susan...thumbs up to your husband! That looks like all custom aluminum framing. Very nice! Do you have any aliens to hang out with the ship? How do you plan to display it?

[susan from creepy hollow]

storage is a problem, lol. it used to fit in our haybarn... until we put it all together! now i am going to have to just tarp it behind the barn i think.

it is made from 2 of the 11 foot old-style (huge) satellite dishes. i got them for FREE!!! a couple of silver tarps and a can of silver spray paint later and there you have it, a UFO!

we are currently building it a landing gear, so it can sit out in front of our house to draw maximum attention. i also need to get going on making a couple of pilots for it!

VERY NICE!!! i like the rubble around it, too, adds to the realism!

[Head Spook]

My husband made me a UFO several years ago. You should get some of the strands of chasing Christmas lights. Makes it very realistic.:)

[Lakeside Haunt]

Nice UFO I can't wait to see it with lights.

[TwistedDementia]

Post those pics of the lights when you get them on, can't wait to see it.

[1031fan]

[susan from creepy hollow]

there's good news and bad news.
the good news was this eventually even FLEW! >:)
the bad news? it was during a tornado, and it was destroyed, wrapped up in a tree top. RIP my U.F.O. i miss you still...



set up in my friends trail

sorry about the bump, i was looking back at my old posts and realized i'd never shared 'finished' pics of it.

first, your husband made you the UFO? That's real love!

second, i wanted to give my condolances for your loss...that ufo looks so awesome as does the aliens next to it!

[susan from creepy hollow]

Thank you. :)

[Rahnefan]

Sweet saucer. Sorry about the loss!

[Pumpkin5]

:jol: Where else but on the haunt forum would you hear this next line? 'Your husband built you a UFO? Now that is love!' P.S. Tell him kudos, it is quite a nice piece!:D

[Dixie]

Oh man, what a shame it was destroyed in a tornado - but I think you have the sentiment right, in that it FLEW.... I'm sure it was how that UFO would have wanted to go. LOL.

Glad you have a lot of pictures to go back and google at! :)

[CreeepyCathy]

that looked awesome.:)

and my deepest sympathies... sniff.. sniff... lol
