it was $200 dollars including materials and labor . took 3 people 4 hours to do it.
but thats in mexico. so .
what they used was the following
insulation (like you would use on a house)
then used 1 large dry wall piece
they drilled it in with screws
then they covered the sides so no sound escapes with cement paste
mainly you just need to know how thick your window is so you know how much space you have to work with.
measure the depth. so you can see how much insulating you can do.
the more the better.
you can put a curtain piece before the insulation so that way it looks like from the outside there is a "curtain"
so no one will know that behind the curtain there is insulation and dry wall.
once you leave (if you need to get your deposit back , it can easily pop off the wall and be cut off so it wont damage the property.
any further questions just PM me :-)

they wanted to paint it , but why bother when i will just close the curtains and i am moving in 1 year anyways.

That looks great and very effective! I did something similar with my bedroom window, though I did a way shittier job. I removed the blinds and curtains, got two pieces of this and cut them to fit my window, so there was a double layer, and wedged in some rope caulk to fill the gaps and keep it in place. I don't particularly recommend the rope caulk as it loses adhesion and falls off eventually, but it worked for a while and didn't damage anything. I already had privacy film on the window so it doesn't look bad from the outside. Then I put a huge tapestry over that entire wall and live as though the window isn't even there, but when I move I could probably get it back to normal in less than an hour. It doesn't entirely block out sound but it's way better than it was before.
Re: Soundproofing. How To Keep The Noise Down.
With this thread, I am really gonna take into consideration to invest into some solid windows when I build the camming space. The cam room will have super expensive ones that block all the sound. Ok, the whole house will have pretty solid ones, because of my dogs that LOVE running around the yard and bark at everything, in the middle of the night. And I'll make sure I get that type of mirrored windows, where you can see only from inside, but from outside it's a mirror. Idk how to explain in english, but you know what I mean.
I keep the blinds on anyway, but yeah...
Writing down here to keep in mind!
