The sandstone texture looks so good! Mind-blowing techniques in this one.

If anyone is curious, the movies I used clips from are The Ten Commandments and Land of the Pharaohs. And a short clip of Gods of Egypt lol

Ever run across a 19th C Scottish painter named David Roberts? He toured Egypt and the Near East and painted the ruins just emerging from Egypt’s sand. kzbin.info/www/bejne/enq2gIRrgZuNa8U

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

@@readhistory2023 yes, i love his work. The half submerged in sand aesthetic is my favourite

[@lesterleysath1000]

Wish you had used more clips that show the real people of the region and not the whitewashed Hollywood versions. But awesome build.

[@ph1gm3nt]

Hate to tell you this, that printer is not a SLA printer, it's an FDM printer.

Dang. You crushed this one, man. Phenomenal job.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks man! I'm obsessed with Ancient Egypt recently. It was a lot of fun

[@pedroalves6425]

Thanks Emil!

[@sofielarkin491]

Im an archaeology student and specialise in Egypt, I'm genuinely so impressed by the effort and research you put into this! Well done!

[@dindranew.6808]

I CAN read hieroglyphs and Hieratic--I teach Classical languages--and you did an excellent job of drawing them! Every glyph is legible. :D

Absolutely love the history lesson

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

I'm glad! Stuff like that is so interesting to me

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

This is one of your best builds and EASILY your best video. Fantastic job man, hope you are really proud of this one. Stone looks so good.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks man i really appreciate that! I am proud of it

[@abdelhamidgamal514]

As an Egyptian following you from the start of this channel, i am very happy with this project.

[@brentonjoseph]

4:49 OH MY GOD you're a genius! Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@LucJenson]

Man, I was watching this while focusing on some grading and I was answering points before you'd say them. Such as, when you were mentioning the cartouche, I said "It's called a cartouche." when you were describing its shapes. Gotta say; you did your research well. I'm a history teacher and if I had it within my schedule this semester I'd love to do a project like this with my students and use your video as an inspiration to get started. This is fantastic! I rewatched it after I finished it to pay closer attention to your hard efforts. Well done, as always!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

This comment makes me smile! I’m glad i got some things right :)

[@LucJenson]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop You sure did! I'd love to see you take a jab at other ancient themes. Your hieroglyphics were really clean, too. Usually, hieroglyphics are read right to left, top to bottom - however, the language can be written both directions. The figures face the direction in which it is written, which yours did! Awesome stuff, man!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

@@LucJenson yeah i had no interest in trying to write right to left (worried i would smudge, etc) but i kept my birds facing left !

[@uriance88]

You might also want to look at Black Magic Craft - Jeremy did an Egyptian themed build (not as historically accurate, but a bit quicker and more modular. Might fit better into a school schedule, kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGOck3yqidynlc0

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

@@uriance88 i love Jeremy’s stuff, mans a legend.

[@ched---]

all the talk of ancient Egypt on your streams has gotten me excited for this one

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Same haha

[@BillMakingStuff]

Good job mate, loved the history lessons. you are the sandstone king btw.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

My next iteration of crafting sandstone will involve hundreds of tons of sediment and millions of years of pressure

[@DafyddRoche]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop That sounds like a 30 year mortgage.

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

Finally someone doing something ancient Egyptian....I was drawn to it as a child and so grateful to visit it

[@Art_911]

What an absolutely fantastic method of creating sedimentary rock!

[@oldmanofthemountains3388]

DUDE! You absolutely NAILED the sandstone cliff faces!

[@sempernovatusgames6798]

Just WOW. The job you did with the stone, making it look rough... it is madness! And thank you for the little history lesson you introduced in the video. You did a really enjoyable video to watch!

[@Master_Blackthorne]

As a student of Egyptology, I can safely say you should be on the museum staff!

[@firemandkdkdk]

Yes, that is really awesome..... makes me want to do a On30 porter train layout through the desert ! maybe someday in the Philippines whan I have the time and nothing to do and take all of my unused on30 trains there from California !

[@SaadAliArts]

This is a masterpiece. It is a very inspiring and very beautiful. This video deserves millions of views like and support. Wish to see you making Taj Mahal, Chichen Itza, Angkor Wat, Forbidden City in Beijing China etc

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks Saad! Very kind! More historical projects are coming

[@CowlTek]

Those rocks look incredible

[@NOLNV1]

the eroded-heat-gun-foam-sediment-sandstone work is something else! really nice!

[@sprucehouse9]

My favorite period of time! You nailed the look of an ancient Egyptian monument! The effect you got on the rocks is awesome.

[@RPArchiveOfficial]

That sandstone texture is fantastic, the heat gun is a stroke of genius man!

[@BrewPub]

The method to create the sandstone texture is brilliant, because it is soo simple yet effective.

[@xilicks]

Your attention to detail on how the tombs would be constructed was appreciated! The rock textures came out very well one of the best builds I've seen in this theme.

[@hyperbene7711]

Whoa... this is one of my all-time favorite videos. Lessons in hieroglyphics and then your cheeky translator app - you're too interesting! Your videos are addictive.

[@Tamriella]

I'm so flashed of this 4:25 and this 5:03 and this 5:40 - aaand tilt... i love everything about this video. all of this Work are absolute mindblowing hacks for me! 👏🤯

You write better than the ancient Egyptians!😲👏👏👏

[@tataritrades6992]

You really took my brain out for this one man

[@richardlionheart3935]

It looks really good. I especially liked the hieroglyphs, that really added a nice touch.

You 're so good at this game... This project (as many others of yours) breathes with passion. I find the final result stunning and can't wait to see what you will do whith the inside of the tomb! Cheers Eric!

[@GrenadeMessiah]

Love me some Egyptian lore along with my hobby time 💪🏼 very dope video

[@astrozombiac3535]

I've noticed you like to do research into the cultures you're creating scenery for. So I always learn something new. Those canyons would make for a great western themed canyon or something. Excellent work as always.

[@debbralehrman5957]

Totally amazing. I love how you work out the rock facing. It looks very realistic.

[@LONO47]

Love to see a history build. This might be my favorite build on KZbin in a long time. Thanks for this Erik.

Man I don't know how I missed this one but just seeing how you made the rocky cliff face now blew my mind.

[@Sam_888]

That cliff texture is crazy good. Will be using it!

Amazing work on the sandstone. I love that technique, never seen it used anywhere else. I'll have to use it myself.

[@smiandy1785]

SUPER CUTE! Great job Eric!

[@thomasgross8289]

I recently started building table top terrain, about 6 months ago and man your skills blows me away! I've learned a LOT from watching your videos, like cutting individual bricks and gluing them onto my building's for example. Thanks for all your work and I look forward to seeing more. I also thought to add some runes to one of my builds and looked up ancient druid runes but I hand painted them on, not nearly to the extent that you did hear lol but it definitely added a bit to the build. I'm definitely going to give that pen a try. Thanks again!

[@deadshallwalkearth]

Just Discovered you-- Amazing, and I love that you actually give true ancient history as you go-- I love It

[@WillFromFinland1]

Wow that is stunning! The sandstone looks so real!

[@johnhoffmann2311]

Wow,true artistry.I find ancient Egypt very interesting so when I came across your video I had to check it out.Truely creative,nice job.Thanx for posting!!!

[@nparsona]

It looks amazing. The best part came as I was imagining different ways for how you would print the hieroglyphics and combine them with the piece - then you hand drew them. Damn. Lots of good advice in this video too.

[@ScaleModelMuse]

Awesome...Egypt is one of my fave subjects of study

[@3DPrintingRockets]

5:03 that part was genius, I was genuinely impressed

[@KnarbMakes]

Great video Eric, loved the intro mood. That Erichotep is a real cartouche, amirite?

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Phonetically it says Erichotep as far as i can tell, but i have no idea what im doing lol. There are no vowels in hieroglyphs and i dont really know the rules for when characters can share the same line so i just jammed em in there in a way that looked decent to me

[@KnarbMakes]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop looks fantastic!

[@negotiableaffections]

Amazing work Eric. Your rock technique is superb AND inspirational...

[@Bloodangel1977]

Bro! This is INSANELY creative and well done!

[@tommymurphy6753]

This is a phenomenal piece Eric, great job.

[@PuckCurtis]

I really like your technique for creating layers of strata. Side by side with reference images you nailed the look.

[@denysopalenyk4775]

The texture method is so impressive, definitely will use it in future!

[@thecatwasme]

Eric, you are awesome. A true Master of terrain building. Beautiful piece that looks realistic. I hope that the Pharoh has lots of treasure and maybe some pets, servants or bodyguards who remained to travel with him into the afterlife.

[@gilbert9825]

holy moly you saved me a lot of time in the futre. i am curenty working on some sediment stone terain for my 40k table. i also started by cuting horizontal lines in the foam, but then like a foll i chip away small bits of foam with a screwdriver and it has taken my so many hours up to this point of time that i paused the projeck allready several times. From now on i will use your method. thanks eric

[@c.e.jarvis1512]

Awesome job Dude , I can’t wait for the interior video. Thanks for sharing this.

[@makkon06]

I frequently referenced the hot wire cut XPS foam around 4:25 while designing and sculpting the Methedori rocks and cliffs for Moonbreaker. you can see them in context on Methedori Cliffs and Landing Pad. really appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos showcasing your workflow!

[@davidmendes9900]

Wow! That's for sure amazing! I specially like your sandstone texturing method.

Each video I learn more and more skills from you. I’m slowly working on a Jurassic Park modular display and I’ll be modifying your stone method you used in this video for a canyon I’m crafting. Thanks for the tips, this is so impressive!
