These things happen. I remember a company that put out a "mad bomber" fig the week before 911. Not they're fault, not your fault. Keep up the good work.

I never noticed that about sawtooth roofs being the universal symbol for "factory". Wow. Nice build too!

The instructions on bringing a file from illustrator to blender is going to be a game-winner for me. Thanks!

Nice!! I knew someone would appreciate that!

Great job on the factory. It looks amazing and now i know what a saw tooth roof and a muntin is. also, the alarming close-up was very effective. I heard tutorials work best when watched like a Bourne Identity fight scene.

Simple builds like this when executed by a pro are just great. Anyone can do them and if you take a little extra time they look A+. Great video, man! Would love more of these simple and versatile builds.

great video.young peoples can use these videos to learn for school projects. as for the war goes on,i am 70yrs.old and a war was going on then and one will be going on when i died.you just do your channel and teach peoples how to have fun.this old man will keep watching.

God bless brother.

Another useful, well-made video. Despite the shaky cam. Well done, sir! For those who do not have a 3D printer: Check with your local libraries. In the USA, many of them have one that they will let you use. You will have to pay a small fee, of course. Not all libraries have one, but a surprising number of them do.

I love it how you make practicle wargaming terrain. Which actually looks realistic. There is mess and rubble AND IT'S ALL PLAYABLE!

goes hard as always, windows were a great touch. 3D printed bits add so much when combined with more traditional methods of terrain making, they look so good when mixed together well.

Great build! The sawtooth roof and explanation is the kind of attention to detail and research that I really appreciate from your channel. Keep up the good work!

Very cool look to this, Eric. The roofline and muntins (today I learned) add a ton, and it's great to see RFD's techniques spreading. That guy is seriously good at urban terrain.

I love the random vocabulary-trivia sprinkled throughout the video :D

I can never un-see muntins now on all those abandoned buildings that I love so much. Great build; you are in fine form even though I suspect kind of sleepless these days. Congrats on the build and belated congrats on the kid!

I love the harvesting of the paint water for the wash.

This project is so real, and you are very talented. I love it

I really like it. Something different than the usual industrial builds. Looks simple but very nice. I like these kind of styles to sell a (for me) realistic industrial district.

Didn't seem to take that long but really fleshes out your battlefield/industrial terrain

Exactly the inspiration I needed for my scratch building today.

Eric: *Breathes* Me: Genius!

Best inspirational building channel out there

thank you! I reallly appreciate it

I am very intrested in seeing more of these builds! This one is so darn playable and i really admire the thoughtfulness you put into making it so.

Love this build Eric. I definitely need one of these. Cheers mate.

Love this style of terrain, I would like to see more.

Fantastic!!! Also loving the blender to 3D print tutorial in addition to your usual crafting madness.... well done!!

Thank you very much!

You know, if you mixed in a bit of fine sand with the modpodge and paint when you went over the parts that would be metal, it would improve the rust effects.

Very cool, I like how you used some of your Necromunda Builds in conjunction with this!

Nice one Eric. Kudos for the shoutout to RFDHobby. Actually guys, this fellow has recently had his house burnt down in a fire. Thankfully nobody got hurt, but the house itself is completely ruined. It would be good from the community to support him anyway we can. At least go check his channel and like and comment on his videos.

Great for gameplay - awesome usage of corrugated cardboard

That looks very nice! Good morning 🫂🤝

Definitely going to use this tutorial for my Bolt action Stalingrad project.

Hey! I loved the video. Great introduction to your channel and I’ll definitely be subscribing! For the lettering on your sign you can totally use your current printer, you just need to get a .25mm nozzle head. They are perfect for small detail prints and make words way more readable!

I’d love to watch more like this

Great job on the factory and you are a Good Man for the donations.

Such an awesome build. You are an artist. ”Hatten av!”

Grew up in Buffalo, New York and spent much many hours playing in abandoned factory buildings, catching pigeons and the like. What almost every one of them had [and something that would add to your gaming experience] were catwalks. Some were actually quite elaborate, spanning large areas and consisting of several layers, connected by stairs. Something you might consider in future builds. Also, I don’t recall any of them that didn’t have at least one overhead crane. You do excellent work, by the way.

Reminds me of the place Alex Murphy became Robocop. I think that means you succeeded tremendously well!

Thankyou for this "easymaking" piece of terrain. I eventually followed the instructions and built the same with my boy, not as good as yours but still looks very good! We are now thinking about so many scenarii to play with it!

I recently discovered your channel and am eating up the content. This use of oils is the first time I've not been annoyed with oil usage (I feel like everyone is doing the oil wash thing right now...) Great job

I shrunk your measurements by about 60% to fit my upscaled battlefield models. Worked perfect

Awesome tutorial - more ruined industrial terrain please!

Excellent content. Stepping up the game when it comes to terrain is a must in today's game.

I think it is really cool that you add some educational factors about your builds. From historical value in the Warhammer vids, to learning about common architecture in factory buildings, you always keep the inspiration and interest for crafting. Great work!

I don't play 40k but will for sure make some factory's for my game. Great tutorial!

Turned out killer man nicely done.

awesome!! many thanks for the tip of importing an svg in blender to extrude a heightfield stl!!!

This is so cool! My favorite part was the use of the dirty water as wash :D

Wow that looks super amazing! I'm now a fan!

Mercium. Only one letter transposition away from M-eric-um. "There is no such thing as coincidence."

Another fantastic tutorial! Thanks Eric!

Nice! Easy to make and looks great!

Really nice detail another amazing build!

Yes, would love to see more buildings like this, please. Really good job.

Thanks for the tip on the paper towel for oils, it explains a lot.

Eric, I ALWAYS love your builds! So realistic, and I love the background research you do to make them look that way! Here's something that I think about though... Where is the rest of the building that collapsed? Did somebody come along and neatly clean up the debris but decided to leave the rest of the dilapidated building intact? It's something I see constantly in a lot of "ruins" builds that otherwise look awesome. Maybe making the entire building and then destroying pieces of it, to leave scattered would give just the right amount of debris that should be left over. You started it here with the collapsed roof, but what about the walls? Look at reference photos of ruined buildings and walls. The debris is pretty much NEVER taken away. Even in really old structures it's always there somewhere. I practically never critique your artwork because it is SO amazing. But I feel like adding appropriate debris that makes it look like part of the building actually came down (and didn't just get eaten by a interdimensional vortex or something) would make it so much more realistic. Seriously, the rest of the structure looks AMAZING, it's just that little detail that keeps it from looking completely realistic.

In some cases, like Mordheim, the collapsed building pieces have been taken away to build barricades or be burnt for fuel. In this case, there is a significant amount of wreckage and rubble in the building, but there are always tradeoffs between realism, playability, fragility, and how much time you invest into the model

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Agreed Eric. Definitely a tradeoff in what the builder is going for. This one probably isn't even the one to pick on because there is a bit of debris added in. Cool build regardless. Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Nice work Eric!

Amazing work as usual!

i love these terrain build guides, keep them coming!

Great building. I like how you teach the terms of the architectural features as well.

Really love this build - it's got everything. It looks great, would fit on a variety of battlefields, and it's really gameable with the walkways and space for a tank to trundle through. Great job. I'm tempted to give it a go myself, just a bit concerned about storage. But I could probably make it as two separate L pieces, or make the top and bottom floors separately?

Will definitely try that oil technique. Thanks for sharing :)

Very nice build Eric

Really enjoyed that one.

This was fantastic Eric! Looks amazing. Great video and inspiring to build this one myself.

I really like your videos. You have inspired me to make some terrain. Thanks man!

that's badass. nice work!

I love this build and your channel in general been subscribed for a long time. A cheaper alternative for the windows instead of using a 3D printer is to just cut thin strips of medium-weight chipboard like you did for the I-beam and then glue them into a grid that fits your window cutouts. A lot faster and you won't develop carpal tunnel and you don't need a 3D printer.

Awesome build , definitely a perfect Rainey day project for the boys and l I also appreciate the little facts you drop , thank you.

Yes more please! Great build and really like the leman russ as well.

Incredible build! Would love to see more in this style.

Love all your terrain videos :D

Awesome vid, Eric!

Loved it. Yes, make more buildings like this.

I've been struggling to finish a similar project, but this gives me inspiration!

very unique, I dig it

Interesting concept for European factories, well executed. Cheers Eric.

Hello Éric Amazing scratch ! Congratulations from a french fan 👍

I always know going into one of your videos, alongside the crafting tips, im about to pick up some random facts.

More like this sounds awesome

Great build! Love the corrugated paper and your 3D printed windows look epic. I’ve been thinking of doing a factory type build for a while.

I’ve just returned to your videos after a few months absence, and your skills and kit are a step-up. Great work mate 👍

Definitely interesting in more quick and simple scifi/modern builds like this.

This is a great and simple piece, thanks for sharing, would enjoy seeing more builds like this, and then eventually all of them together on a table top, maybe even with a vide oof a game being played, congrats!

Nice looking build

Nice work man!

Damn fine looking factory- and I would LOVE to see more terrain like this, absolutely. Silver lining would be that it would have multiple uses; outside of just straight-up fantasy, it wouldn't feel out of place wherever you, uh, placed it. Enjoy your upcoming weekend.

Well done sir, I really like the washes on the metal.

Great video. Thanks

great video as always!

I’m trying to make my own table top board game so these modern/sci-fi ruins will help me out. Thanks Eric, and keep up the good work.

The tutorial I didn't realise I needed. Cheers Eric.

Have you considered making terrain for smaller scales, like 15 or 6mm? That'd be kinda cool to see your take on it - and how different the amount terrain you might end up with.

epic build! i bought some foam board yesterday im gonna try making something like this

If you wanna make a more modular window model just in blender, it is not hard and can be done with little to no modelling experience. Make a plane, shape it to the proportions you want and hit "i" to itset it. Scale the inset so the edge is half as wide as you want it to be when its done. When you got the desired thickness, delete the square in the middle, and select the four edges and extrude them. Open the modifier tab and add two array modifiers, set one to X and the other to Y. Tweak the settings till the edges all line up. You should end up with a nice grid. Now you can just add as many rows and columns as you want. Hit tab to go back to object mode and repeat step 1 to get another frame, just scale it to go around the smaller frames you made earlier. Making it a seperate object makes it easier to scale just it to fit your window. Congrats now you can make as many rows and columns as you want. Big windows, small windows, huge windows. Whatever you need, just tweak a few values and move the edge.

So good!

Amazing and inspirational as always! And yes more please 😁
