I Made A Realistic Factory Facade From Styrofoam!

My friends, miniature buildings are a very exciting part of any diorama. They offer us many exciting and different textures, and a whole new bunch of painting and weathering techniques! But their biggest downside is their size, and soon enough we can start running out of space. So why not take the best out of this concept and put it in a picture frame?

Disclaimer: I have a good relationship with a handful of modelling brands and stores, namely VMS, Michigan Toy Soldier Company, and AK-Interactive. As such, I'm happy to use their products/services, and show them in my work. In return, they support my efforts in this hobby, although my hands are not bound nor am I obligated to push one brand or the other. This was one of the founding ideas of the channel and I will always stand by this.

Remeber kids: All you need is +30 years old black ink! - Dear Martin, it amazes me what you can do new to the most common things. Very creative, very new and also kind of quick (and dirty from the ink). I started following you for your modeling skills - no so much because you do armor. Today i congratulate myself being so smart to stick with you. Im even looking forward for the next tank!
I'm a bricklayer in canada and the way that you varied the brick color in sections is perfect. When bricks are placed on the scaffold they come on pallets so that sections of wall will get that pallet with a few leftovers raised up to the next section. One might get a few pallets from the same batch number so they'll be really close in color but if not from the same batch number the colors will be slightly off just as you've shown. We'll done 👏👌👏
Happy Christmas uncle night shift!!!
SO SICK!!!!! This should be a series of future builds!!!!

Sounds like a plan ;)
That was a master class in XPS modeling. The Tamiya putty as sealer could be a game changer for many people, and that styrene "plywood" sheet is also brilliant. In fact the whole vid was stuffed with fantastic techniques. Bravo, sir.
I am absolutely speechless. Your talent for creating replicas of originals goes beyond the normal level of talent. Unbelievably pretty.
It is _so_ nice to see every 2nd rows of bricks laid short side out! This is the standard for brick constructions actually made from bricks, and not just faced with bricks. A proper brick wall is two bricks thick. There are several ways to ensure stability for suck a wall, the every 2nd row across is called "English bond", but there are many other types, like Garden bond (every 4th row across), Flemish bond, Monk bond etc.
I love your tanks but your scratch buildings are something else. Great one as always. Please do more 😊❤
Let’s goo! This looks awesome, always love the unexpected uploads 👌

Kids dont get discouraged this guy is a pro you have to eat breathing sleep modeling from the age of about eight years old and develop skills over the next 20 years to reach this level . So don’t give up
For me it is a miracle when people can recreate what they see. I can not even draw a straight line. Great art.

As a professional artist, let me reassure you that no one can draw a straight line. The human species has invented all sorts of tools to overcome our shortcomings, such as a straight edge (or holding shift if drawing on the computer.)

Ha Ha! Me too. I also have the added handicap of being colourblind.
Love the content, details in your dioramas are just amazing.
Just amazing! Fantastic modelling as always. Happy New Year!

I am so obsessed with your architecture builds. There needs to be a word for architecture miniatures - its not just dollhouses! Please do more, I love seeing your works so much
Amazing ,wonderfully made. ❤
What an incredible job. Very inspiring and educational.
Oh my days.. I can’t do better in the future, excuse me ?? How ?? This is like normal for you totally insanely beautiful. It’s like, I want to watch what you create, yet feel so insecure as I know I will never have that much talent to even warrant trying it. Put this video off for so long, just watched it and I’m like how, just how.. You are an amazing talent sir.. much respect
Absolutely amazing and beautiful work!!!
Amazing work as always! This was a fantastic idea
Looks amazing, really cool project, please do more!
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Inspirational stuff, Night Shift. I've found a good splosh of homemade acrylic thinner, half again of cheap liquid PVA glue and a few teaspoonfuls of cheap finishing plaster filler to consistency of thickish paint does wonders. Dry with a heat gun if you're impatient and recoat if you want. It leaves a hard 'plaster' like (lol) surface which is just begging to be painted. I mix up enough for a small plastic shot glass which I reckon is about 10 pence a shot rather than £6.00 a tube of commercial stuff. Try it with other glues too! Best of luck.
Amazing work. Thanks for sharing all of your clean techniques with us.
You bring so much passione to this hobby!I love the Factory,especially that you have made one already and this looks amazing!

Great video. I started following for the armour models but your scratch builds have been really inspiring. Great work.
That is amazing! The detail and realism you impart on this wall art are stunning. Really enjoyed the video and new techniques to try out. Happy holidays!
Martin, beautiful work and very unique! I never would have thought to try this, so visually interesting to hang on the wall. A figure might be cool leaning in a doorway or visible in a window. Have a great holiday season, and thanks for the constant inspiration throughout the entire year.
