    Default Gave my DOGHOUSE Blind a Make-over

    Well, I just couldn't see putting that dark thing out again this year, without a face-lift, so since I already had a bunch of camo paint from last year, I set to work last night and today, giving the blind a face-lift.
    I may have to lighten it up a tab more, but it's better than what it was. IMHO

    What do you think guys and gals ?

    Here's the old Doghouse.



    Here's a picture of the kind of stuff, I'm ussually set up near.
    Can you see the doe



    Here's the new LOOK





    I did the shoot-through window too, and the ol black flap

    Wow, looks good Sherm. I'm going to have to lighten mine up too.

    I used that Krylon, Flat Camo spray paint.
    It's really hard to find good colours in a flat Acrylic spray

    That looks really good. when i try to do stuff like that it ends up not looking near as good as yours.

    I'm going to lighten it up, just a tad more. Not quite happy with it yet.

    It should last a while Leo. That Krylon Acrylic is almost like fabric paint.

    I lightened it up a bit more today, by adding more grass down lower. I'll post pics later.

    I'll trust a painter knows I'll keep that in mind if I ever paint fabric.
