Eric shouldn't be down on himself, his terrain is some of the best terrain out there and with very informative videos. No ones terrain is perfect, its a subjective art form. I personally think Eric makes some of the best industrial homemade terrain out there

The build looks great Eric! I think that you're absolutely right, don't beat yourself up if something doesn't turn out perfectly. "It's okay to screw up" is true, because not only is that how we learn, but it's also not necessary for everything to be perfect, showpiece work all the time. Especially when you're trying new techniques, things don't always work out the first time, but if we didn't try new things, we'd never learn how to do them the right way at all.
14:35 Even though this is a crafting channel, I thought that was perfect. It's an important thing for everyone to remember. In order to be happy in life, you need to be kind to yourself, and love yourself.

"It warms the cockles" is the quote of the day
They look super realistic! I see these all the time at big factories and they’re spot on!
Love the honesty about ‘not Erik’s perfect workshop’
I was subbed to "Eric's polished every time never screws up" channel, but it was lame, switched up to "Eric's Hobby Workshop", never looked back :)
Bah, you didn't screw up. It's well known that promethium flow has a effect on the local gravity field. You get some weird drips that way...
Sometimes the fun comes from fixing the mistake. That's a challenge all in itself. So gratifying.
Wow, back three years to watch this one and there's Eric, still beating himself up and never satisfied. That's what makes your builds, and your channel, so watchable. No BS, just crafting with mistakes and failures, which keeps everything real. Thank you Eric and may you never stop showing us all how it really is. Every slight misbuild you've made is a big help to us mere humans 😂👍 )O(
I love watching any terrain videos on youtube. But your 40k terrain is the best on the internet in my opinion.
The messages you send out to people are amazingly positive man, its genuinely awesome to see all the supportive comments you've had in response :)
Eric don't worry, we know you are not polish. After all this channel is called Erik's hobby workshop, not Eric's warsztaty hobbystyczne...

I can't count the times I've screwed up making terrain, but at the same time I've learned a lot and had fun...Still learning at nearly 64 and still scratch building and enjoying it even more! Keep up the great work you're doing Eric, your videos are really inspiring
Failure is a lesson, it's a necessary part of the process. Keep up the good work
Killer industrial pipes with bonus inspirational rants; what more could anyone want? Great video!
That’s cool. Experimentation risks failure. Totally worth it.
That little motivational message toward the end of the video was awesome. I felt that in my soul. Thanks, Eric.
I'm sure plenty of people have said it but we love you and your work. It doesn't have to be perfect cuz odds are we wont make it perfect even if you showed us how. I get so much enjoyment from you and your work. Keep it up and dont listen to the haters.
I have done a lot of scratchbuilding and I can honestly say that no matter how well I planned it I still had to remake a component from 1 to 3 times before I got it right. But I always learned from the experience. This was a great tutorial and the whole thing looks fantastic. I always enjoy and learn from your channel.
It’s so reassuring hearing that mistakes are okay from such a skilled crafted :’) I really needed to hear that
Excellent video as always Eric!! Your mild rant made me laugh my ass off too, great job all round :)

Little did Eric know that this was exactly what I needed to hear. Thanks man.
Oh My GOODNESS Eric!! I know I don't expect you to be a Master Builder but man, you are! You've designed some very cool stuff before and this is no acception! The PVC, the pipes (straws), the way it all connects! Amazing! Really great work! You are being way too hard on yourself. And, anyone who would comment negatively is someone you wouldn't be friends with so don't LISTEN TO THEM! Okay, I'm done with MY rant. BTW, it's okay to screw up!!!
Good man honesty showing mistakes helps all of us makes things more relatable to know same problems happen to everyone

Dude, it's alright to mess up sometimes. What you do is show your techniques and inspire. Personally i've never done any build exactly like i watched. I change some to my personal liking or what material i have at that moment. But it is all thanks to crafting channels like you that i was inspired.
Showing errors and working thru them makes for better videos. Shows us not only the learning process, but also shows us why **not** to do some things some ways. Good work, keep it up.
I'd love to see a video where you put everything you've made together, you could make a huge battlefield out of all of this!
Been waiting for a new video. Straight up the best terrain builder on KZread
Eric, I love those little yet so important messages interspersed throughout the build. Really helps, mate. Thank you!

Excellent weathered paint effect, and I'm genuinely impressed at what you managed to do with chipboard. Well done that man.
Just a comment on your midway rant. I really love how casual you do things, it reminds me of the chef at home, if you're familiar with that. Chef Micheal Smith. He is the guy that inspired me to cook. It was his casual take on having no recipe and have fun and experiment. Also with simple ingredients. You sir are the terrain version of that. Simple, fun, and we all learn together. Don't change.
Your work is some of the best around, and your videos are the best combination of educational, entertainment, and inspiration for me. One of the best craftsmen around Eric, thanks again for all your work! Exact, or perfect is almost non-existent in the 40k verse anyhow!
Awesome as always, I know what you mean about self criticism, Im working on an Ork bunker at the moment and over half way complete but not happy with it at all and no longer enjoying building it. Best thing for me is to move on and start again and leave it in the past as a mistake to learn by. Crafting is meant to be fun, when its not, stop, think about what makes you happy then start again. Love ya channel keep up the awesome work =)
Eric loving the chatting style that goes along with this build. Great work.
Love the message this time. It. Is. Okay. To. Screw. Up. Very important message and reminder to all of us. Love the product you turn out.
I just found you a couple days ago with a video you put out months ago. That little rant made me laugh, I cant imagine anyone being over-critical with your stuff. It looks great and I love your process. Great music btw.
I feel like the life advice in this video is as at least as good as the crafting advice, which is top notch since the build looks damn fine.

I really do enjoy your workshop stuff, including all the minor missteps and learning moments. Keep up the good work.
yo your reminder at 14:00 was exactly what I needed right now. Thank you Eric. YOU'RE killing it indeed!
Screwing up can lead to discovering a new way of doing something or coming up with a really cool effect. I look forward to every new video you put out Eric. You are one of the most creative terrain makers on youtube and have greatly inspired me.
Showing mistakes allows others to avoid them and to be mindful of the potential for them. Wonderful tutorial and beautiful work mate
Love the conduct walkway idea. You are killing it with the ideas. Love you stuff. Always remeber if you wouldn't say something to or about your best friend, then don't say or think it to yourself.
your explanation on how you don't know everything... was really important for me to hear. I'm always beating myself up on obliging myself to know everything perfectly before i feel like i can talk about it or teach it... thank you for your "mild rant"
Hey brother just wanted to say to you little section of "it's okay to screw up" life advice and "bullying yourself" was fuckin awesome and that was the icy on the cake for me and I had to subscribe! Such a legit dude and you deserve all the success that you and your wife find. 😎🤙

Eric I love your stuff, it’s fantastic. I’ve been watching you since day one and I’ll never stop stealing all your ideas!
Grimey, Industrial scenery is by far my favourite kind to include on a board - probably because that was the setting of the first battle report I read in a White Dwarf (2005 Tyranids vs Ork Kill team, check it out) - and this is a great tutorial to recreate that worn, gritty look I want to go for Excellent terrain and video, subscribed.
Great video Eric! Sometimes we are our worst and harshest critics; I’m glad you kept that as a part of your video. I never thought of using tubes from foil and waxed paper. Great idea!
The process is the most important part - it doesn't really matter what the end result looks like so long as you have learned something along the way. I'm a structural technician, so I know first hand that it's near impossible to plan out a full build without issues arising, it's these problems and solving them that end up teaching you the most and improving your overall skill and ability to plan with greater accuracy in the future. Have a sub, good video.

I'm an architect and I agree 100% with what you've said. No matter how good your plans, there is always going to be something that doesn't go the way you expected. Part of the skill of being a good architect, engineer or technician is being able to improvise and problem solve in those kind of situations, so that you still end up with a good result. And at the end of the day, what really matters is the end result. A building can stand for 100 years or more, and most people who see it will never know anything of the difficulties and struggles involved in the construction. All they see is the end product. It's the same with a terrain piece. And I'm sure anyone that sees any of Erik's builds would consider him to be a top notch terrain builder. It doesn't matter if a pipe didn't fit the way he originally planned, or he didn't paint it right the first time. If the end result is a fantastic model, then the process is sound as far as I'm concerned!
Don't listen to the haters Eric your stuff is great
The best hobby channels are the ones that acknowledge when a mishap or mistake happens. It's incredibly important to give yourself permission to not be perfect. This is one of of those channels, Eric. I'm really, really glad I found this channel, it's inspired me to be more excited about terrain and you have a very positive and kind presence in your videos that lends itself to creating an inclusive environment.
The way this man can make rust look so real is incredible. Seriously, he is like the God of Industrial terrain builds.
Cool build, thanks for sharing, plus sharing the mistakes; ones we are likely to make ourselves. Great end result 😃
My guyyy your builds are frikkin incredible, i look for your videos specifically to do a lot of building styles. Dont be down on your building or precision or whatever, the beauties you craft are insane
I really like your style, thanks for allowing us to be party to the process.
Eric, this is frickin amazing. This is going to make everyone's game boards a little bit better
If I wanted to be blasted to bits in an industrial setting, there's no place I'd rather be than in your 40k universe!
A great video! Inspiring and informative. I also appreciate your honesty regarding getting things wrong, we all do and its nothing to be ashamed of, that's how we all learn, by making mistakes and figuring out how to do it right. An excellent job, well done!

man, I am watching your videos for a while - and you are a huge inspiration! because of you, I started crafting myself! Keep doing a great work, your channel is one of the best in this field. Not only because of nice terrain - but also because of your great attitude.
So, when are you starting the "Erics polished everytime, never screws up" channel?. Just kidding Eric, been following you a long time man, love your stuff alot because you go for a style that works for both 40K AND necromunda. My two faves. Keep it up my main man!. Stay safe.
Seeing all this cardboard, glue and paint makes me thing that moisture is the biggest enemy of a 40k fan.
Damn that chipping on the last pipe is phenomenal! You know the old saying "cover your mistakes with foliage". Well foliage doesnt really work on something like this. But industrial style "wear a helmet" signs, grafiti or posters works. Hell slap on a "mens workspace calendar" with a girl on it! Mistakes are a good thing. They force us to do things we didnt originally intend on. Like the barrel you added for stability. Its not an "adition that covers a mistake" but rather a nifty little detail that makes the piece come alive. But seriously Im stealing that chipping effect for when I one day get around to my scrapyard chimpanzee mech army.
I really appreciate you saying that we can be bully to ourselves. Ive been having problems in my life of self perfectionism or make a mistake and scold myself. It helps me out Im not alone with this problem also even with scratch building. Thank you for your inspiring words. :)
Hobby and life advice, keep up the great work dude!
Great job, the light color pipes are really neat looking with the dark weathering
Soo awesome… this is like the 3rd time watching this and each time I come back to it I feel inspired.
Dude those pipes look AMAZING! Thanks for this tutorial!
Just keep up how you do, it's great. The Tutorials are way better than others. A new tutorial every few days doesn‘t help.

Hey, so I was just over on Eric's Polished Every Time Never Screws Up Channel (great channel by the way for anyone who hasn't checked it out), and Bizarro Eric said that you should be absolutely ruthless with yourself and demand only perfection. I was just wondering what your thoughts were on this, Hobby Workshop Eric. Also, just an update from other Eric, he let me know that he is on just hour number 1000 of his first build. And it's going to be epic! He's posting a video for us all to enjoy and it should be out within the next few years or so. Stay tuned! He's just got a couple more breaks today for some self-bullying time, but be assured, he is working diligently to get us some content.
Looks amazing.
Amazing work as always!
Great video man, thanks for making these!!
Awesome build, thank you!
I really enjoy the aesthetic of your industrial terrain. and don't worry about the pipe not fitting thru the I beam frame. That happens in the real world too, we just cut the circle out of the beam :) Thanks for another great video.
I came to watch some terrain building, some anakin-sand joke, but i got a "Don't bully yourself" and "It's ok to screw up" message... I have to say, thank you for that, Eric, this video was inspirational on a personal level!
