    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

    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!

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. 👍👍😁

    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.

    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.

    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.
