    Looks like an awesome blind! There's something extra ninja about getting it done from a blind! Good luck!

    I would have thought the camo would face out? nice work though, you just gun hunting out of that?

    Well the reason I put the camo on the inside was to conceal me I'm am strictly bowhunting out of these. Where I am at there are no trees or cover so I had to make my own. An I want to be higher. Most hunting clothes I find are camo so the reason the camo is on the inside

    Fair enough :tu: Only other suggestion I would make is to block those seems, you won't want any light coming through, especially from behind. It is a sweet setup though, wish I had the time to make somethin like that.
