One day I'd love to see a massive set up with all your different terrain. The bombed out husk of the old world giving way to the industrial necromunda, all surrounded by wastes and deserts. With a fortress monestary looking over it all

This was a great build to watch. I gotta be honest, my jaw dropped when you combined the Snot Goblin ruins on top. The single piece they made was so much more than the two, awesome in their own right, individual pieces.

DUDE. The tip on what to do with the extra two part epoxy putty was amazing. Those sort of solutions to universal problems like that are SO satisfying.

The pristine un-damaged parts of the building are super cool, but I definitely love the horrible staircase of fallen slabs! this turned out great 🙂

Very impressive, you really managed to capture the the results of a war-torn city. A lot of terrain pieces are more Gothic architecture or standard fantasy, so it's nice to see something creative.

Damn dude, that's a banger of a building!

Wake up, Babe, Eric just uploaded a new terrain build!

That gag at 4:06 really got me. Goofy as hell, but that was hilarious man. And Eric, I really love your videos. They're always so cool, and you've got the most charming personality throughout. Thanks for doing what you do. Watching your stuff always brightens my day :))

Stacking 🤌

I guess I better get a bunch of those columns since I'm getting married in six weeks. Thanks for the warning!

See now this is some ruined building I could get behind! That looks amazing man! you did a fantastic job of pulling from the source material, and the wood strips and columns are such an easy way to add that 'neoclassic' look. That's a brilliant gaming centrepiece.

I really like it. This makes me want to make my own hive city board one day that’s a full 4’ x 6’ but also has tall vertical skyscrapers with interlinked bridges

I love how you stay playful, passionate, thorough and always share new techniques and ideas in your content. Proud to be a patreon and discord member!

The sound effects are really adding to the production value and general ambiance of the video.

The broken concrete sections forming staircases reminds me a lot of Gears of War architecture, both convenient for the players and being plausibly formed during the conflict. Great work as always!

That is sweet! Now that I have enough space for the hobby, I can finally use all these ideas you've been giving me over the years and get building!

Honestly one of the best ideas I've seen for road tiles I've seen, only changes I'd make is painting the gutters a different color and standing up some road chunks to more easily show cover.

Wow just wow that looks freaking awesome. Especially the last step and the clip with the marines on it. Great work dude keep it up.🤯

Using Gesso as a sealant is a master stroke sir. Previously I would mix cheap acrylic with wood glue on my foam core and XPS builds. Will definitely need to give that a go. Also bonus points for the use of the word "magnanimous".

This is why I love this channel and your artwork. It is a huge peev of mine that every time I see a "ruined building" type piece of terrain, there never seems to be any rubble around it. It's always this collapsed or bombed out building, where someone apparently has come by to keep things tidy by picking up all the pieces of the building that have fallen off. Apparently, they never have time to just demolish and rebuild the structure itself, but at least those pesky pieces of buildings and structures that fell off are no longer junking up the place! In short, I love this build. It has both the cool scenery of the building and façade while also having the rest of the building where it should be... laying around in piles as rubble and collapsed areas. And THAT is one of the things that makes this look so realistic, while just about all the other collapsed building terrain that I've seen, just never seems to look right. It honestly took me a while to notice this detail in my hobby journey, but once I did, I just can't un-notice it! Thanks Eric, for not fueling my unreasonably strong hatred for typical Urban Ruin builds! 😆 And awesome job as usual.

The architect in me got so happy when you used all the appropriate terminology for the construction (lintel, architrave, parapet, etc.) Fun fact, the style that you used for the cornice is called a "dentil row" because of its resemblance to teeth, with "dentil" being Latin for "tooth" Great work!

Not a 3D printer in sight! So refreshing to get videos where the majority of us can hope to build what's on screen. This looks absolutely great man, using pre trimmed wood was such a great idea!

what i like the most about this channel is that Eric continues to out do himself and teach me something new every time.

It blew my mind when you put the Snot Goblin piece on top. Fantastic work, gorgeous and it captures a lot of the neoclassical lowers of skyscrapers you can find in many Western cities. I had a chance to take a professional tour of my city of Tulsa and the oil barons here were creatures of the early 20th century, when Egypt was being dug up and shown around. It struck me that the fantastical psudo-Egyptian art-deco of the lower, highly visible parts of the buildings demonstrate to me that you could create Neoclassical, "Neo-Egyptian," etc, all capturing art deco for similar pop pieces that when disassembled wouldn't look out of place as a backdrop in D&D.

This is probably the coolest terrain build I've ever seen!

That was AWESOME! I've seen centerpieces, but this simplicity and the tower on top are just amazing. Also the facade and all.. Classic.

That building looks great! Well, the building looks like it has seen better days, but that works in context.

the slab/pancake effect really came out well in the glamor shots at the end.

This build brought to mind the scene of the dropsite massacre, just as Horus chem bombs the planet! Wonderful build, definetely adding this idea to my table and convinced me to grab the new 30k box as well!

This is just amazing that wash just made everything pop like crazy and when you added the skyscraper I was completely sold. It really demonstrates that with the right finish you can integrate retail and home grown seamlessly

You are my favorite creator on the warhammer topic ! Your videos are great and helpful, and i like your humble and calm tone. Amazing projects, especially the titan ! You actually gave me the will to start Warhammer again a few weeks ago and i finished my first diorama yesterday. Thank you for that, peace from Quebec fellow canadian friend!

*_If you take some white strawberry cloth and lay it tight to the stone surfaces, you can airgun on "marble veins". It also works with-some-whet wipes, just stretch the whet wipe over the surface._*

Something I might have done to the frieze is hide magnets there and made pieces that fit over that in modular way so you have it clean, have motto or emblem there or even a part of a motto or emblem that got damaged in the what ever destroyed the building. That way you can keep it setting neutral while at the same time making it so that there's some detail there.

What an amazing instructional video. You are both creative and thorough. I hope others will use your ideas to build buildings and other terrain for their gaming boards, or tables. It will be time consuming, for sure, but it will save others plenty of money, versus purchasing their buildings and terrain from the gaming companies directly. 👍👍😁

The stacking is so simple yet just is chefs kiss

I agree it looks fantastic!

An idea I've been toying around is to have some extra skyscraper ruins and terrain pieces sitting next to the gaming board. Just leave a bit of room for the players to move around.

Cool building. Business in front and party in the back.

Loved this video, thanks for sharing. Your videos are so good and inspiring. Love the bit at the end when you added the Snot Goblins ruin on top, potentially could add some of my old W40k terrain making it look awesome. Architecture is a mix of old and new and this showed that.

Very cool mr hobbyworkshop! 🥰🐶👌 when u said u thought about adding an Aquila I imediately thought u should have added some metal or magnets in that area before painting, so u could magnetise an Aquila for on it if u want in a particular game, if course u could add any sign etc 🥰😉🐶

I love it! One thing I would do is add some of the snot goblin modular pieces in between the ruins, to further sell the idea of a ruined skyscraper. Either way, amazing build!

Great build Eric, thank you for the video

Love the neoclassical look, really slots in well and very different to the usual gothic & fantasy.

This is absolutely stunning. SO friggin creative, and I'm totally sold on the Imperial nature of it. It SCREAMS great crusade, and I cannot wait to use a lot of these supplies and techniques to make my own Horus Heresy era terrain. Big big thumbs up, can't wait to see your next epic terrain piece!

Brilliant work Eric. I like the use of junk or cheap items as the base strucuture and once processed with paints, primers etc you have a quality looking scene. I don't play Warhammer but find diorama construction fascinating.

Awesome work!! Those pullers are a super nice touch! The rubbles in the back is killer too. Nicer work!!

Dude. I don’t know how I haven’t discovered you until now, but I’m bingeing your videos. SO GOOD. Thank you for doing these!

I absolutely would love to play on something like this.

This was a very big help for me. I have some resin decorative pieces printed and was thinking of using pink insulation foam as fortress walls. This video helped me realize what to do to incorporate my decorative pieces. This is for my army display board for a GT. Thanks!

Loved seeing some steel legionnaires, made it feel like it was Armageddon. Great build

Another great build with wit and tips. You didn't mention it out loud, but I played back twice the way you pushed the toothpicks (rebar) through the foam with the eraser end of a pencil. Soooo useful... You are a master of the craft!

OMG, this looks so good! I am an architect by trade and these builds are just so authentic! I wish I could play a game in one of your many masterpieces! Keep up the good work!

Amazing again man. The whole thing was awesome and then BOOM, that wash made it look so realistic. Great stone color.

Love the sand bags made from excess 2 part putty

Lovely little Armageddon Steel Legion cameo there at the end! Perfect! 😁 amazing work as ever man!

this is incredible! You're definitely my favorite hobby youtuber.. I get so much inspiration to see how far I can take this creatively from watching your stuff! Huge thanks :)

Looks amazing! When you put the other ruin on top of it it was like "BAM" the scale looked spot on, which is something I find a lot of 40K terrain lacks. If you think about it, the foot print of a modern skyscraper is bigger than the table we play 40K on. My only critique is that it could use more weathering and layers of coloured flocking and pigment powders, but it's awesome looking as-is.

This looks great, I have no problem seeing that this is a bombed out and ruined skyscraper. Hope to try something with the same kind of materials in a little bit smaller scale sometime in the future.

I once built something very similar to it, but decided to cut it into three pieces wich still fit together to form a big one if needed. A very handy way to create a modular board

Steal legion look great posted up in the ruins there Great video!

wow that came together perfectly

for extra green stuff and modeling putty you can get yourself silicon brick molds and put it inside and use in rubble terrains . Or just make normal bricks , or if you play with nurgle you can use it to make small balls and later cut them in half to use as boils or something like that

That was a great build. Those columns could come in handy for some builds for Reign In Hell. Going with a Greco Roman look on some of the terrain for a whole Dante's Inferno look. Those columns would do nicely.

I really loved this. Was worried about how you were going to paint inside around all those corners but you got in by not putting the roof down. The washes did wonders. I would have loved to see some small scatter or dirt around the fronts also but amazing either way.

0:49 I look forward to Warhamer fans hanging around bakery supply stores looking for hobby supplies just for the conversations you could overhear: Myrtle: It's so nice to see young men showing an interest in baking these days! Ethel: They do seem to have a preference for crunchier recipes. Myrtle: What gives you that idea? Ethel: Several of the young men are wearing shirts displaying their preference for Khorne Flakes.

Priming is always my favourite part of the process as well. There's just something inherently pleasing in seeing all those disparate elements coalesce into a single piece before your eyes.

Embed a few magnets (or small bits of ferrous metal) into the frieze; then you can make swappable signage or other effects.

Awesome as usual. Funnily enough I had just randomly followed the snot goblin Kickstarter about an hour before watching this. Will definitely be getting some of their stuff! Anyway always glad to see a new video from you. You and blackmagiccraft basically got me back into terrain making and gaming! 👍

Those dioramas at the end were amazing.

Oh wow, thats a huge building!! I love the mix of classical and modern elements when you stack things.

Yesss, I was hoping those were cake pillars when I saw the thumbnail. That was one of the first things I used when I started making terrain over 20 years ago. Thanks for the trip back.

Very cool. Liked making terrain more than the gaming 'in the day'. Tip, slightly watered-down plaster painted on is great for textures of all sorts.. can be layered, grit mixed in etc. Great for all kinds of terrain.

Ok, that's impressive. Every part of it.

Muuuummmm Eric's found the silly sounds again 😂 this is fking awesome man!!

This is phenominal mate 👍. I love it. You inspired me with a lot of builds before, and you did it again man. Awesome video.

the sandbags are so cool, thanks!

yes I liked this video right after you said "let's get ready to rubble"

By the gods this is a glorious piece! Well done ⚡⚡⚡

this is so sick, i like the GW ruin kits a lot but this one feels like it does the setting so much more justice. Would love to play on a board made up of a bunch of these. Your videos continue to make me want to move to a part of the country where not everyone lives in a 600sqft apartment and have homes with plenty of space for terrain as always.

That rubble looks so awesome. For skirmish its perfect. I loved how simple is the painting. Awesome work, as always.

I bought a bunch of the columns when Hobby Lobby clearanced them out at the beginning of the year.

I really love your builds man, intigrating playable spaces is such an important part of this whole process and you have a fine tuned skill for fitting them in expertly!

After recently replaying Fallout 3 I must say this also makes for a superb apocalyptic Washington DC piece :)

EHW and MS Paints are my favorite mini related channels. Please keep up the creative work man. Your channel rocks. (Even for a Canadian) haha

That looks fantatic, would love to game on such large terrain builds!! One day I'll have storage-space xD

I love the terrain builds like this and like that factory you did a while ago. Something about the realism with 40k components/inspiration really speaks to me.

the sandbags and rocky looking rock, like, you just threw those in. Those sandbags couldve been a video on their own.

I'm always intimidated with large terrain pieces, this looks amazing though and the floor of the building still seems playable. Love your content!

Your videos are still getting better and better, this was another jump in overall production value, awesome stuff dude

The need for storage space increases! Keeping the top flat to add buildings is great. Good work!

Outstanding content as always sir! You never disappoint with your builds. I like that a lot of your content is setting neutral as well and you're one of the few on KZfaq that does so. Now one thing though... MORE TITAN VIDEOS PLEASE!!!

You seem more active in this video with your voiceover and I love it. Keep making good stuff👍

You inspire me! I have watched a lot of your work, and am vert impressed! I can't wait to start my own diorama. Keep up the great work.

I look at the Government building look of the piece before Snot Goblins ruins are added on top, and I think of the upcoming Kill Team Box. I would love to see a Squad of Arbites who survive the bombing but are cut off from any PDF or Astartes Forces and are using that as a defensible position to hold off the Xenos attacking the planet and hoping for backup.

It looks amazing. Definitely need to look for cake pillars now

What a coincidence you had that scrap piece! XD

That turned out really well

The thing that I might have done is either scribing more stonework into it or filling the larger gaps in the front of it. They seemed to stand out quite a bit there in the end.

Worth the watch for the Epoxy tip alone! but another stunning build

Looks amazing as always Eric 👍 One small critique would be to chip off some of the smoother surfaces on the walls and on the backside of the building just to make it appear rough. I suppose this would be my own preference if I was building this terrain piece but either way I didn’t build it and everyone has their own preference when adding as much or as little details as they like. Regardless this ruined building turned out amazing and I would love to battle it out amongst the ruins with my Post Apocalyptic/ Sci-fi miniatures!
