the tank is in guernsey. and its not a lfs.its in my friends underground bunker built by the germans at the time of world war 2. there are lots of these in guernsey

Thats even cooler. We have some cave houses in the midwest and a few reconditioned missle silos. I would love to have something like that.

That'll be insanely cool once done.

That's bad ***!!! Good luck, and looks like you'll have an awesome pre-existing background nature made!! You should do the outer wall with some rivited steel to keep with the bunker feel. hehe

Crazy.

You may need to do more than just coat the rock with resin though, it looks like it has some deep cracks and fissures in it that could go back a long way. You may need to actually fiberglass or shotcrete over the rock to completely seal it.

You could also chip out some little horizontal areas on the wall that can hold some plants and stuff... when done right would be even cooler still!
