If there's one thing I learned from 80s scifi, it's that in the future our aesthetic will be octagonal. Rooms: octagonal. Corridors: ditto.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

I love retro scifi vibe so much. I like the padding on the walls like the inside of the millenium falcon especially

[@DIGITALDOGMUCK]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Turning your spray cans upside down and spraying after each use should stop the spitting. (Assuming it's a slight blockage).

[@danieljvanrensburg]

that warp backdrop is seriously good though, amazing work can't wait to see it finished

[@shyaardvark5728]

so true :)

[@DaThingOnTheDoorstep]

In the Dark Heresy roleplaying game, there was a published adventure that took place on a space hulk. The most interesting part for me about it was a random table that shows the lingering effects of the hulk having been lost in the Warp for who knows how long. One of these effects is that the floor of the hulk slowly fades away as you walk on it until you're walking on thin air, or well, space... and accruing a hefty hit to your sanity as your mind refuses to believe what you're seeing. Doing a section where the floor is just a sheet of polycarb or plexi glass with the void of space underneath would be incredibly cool.

[@LegioPanda]

I actually ran that adventure for my players some years ago. It was one of the most fun DH missions I've ever ran.

[@anguscampbell3020]

@@LegioPanda What was it called? Id be interested in looking it up.

[@LegioPanda]

@@anguscampbell3020 It is the second mission in the Purge the Unclean trilogy, pretty easy to find book. Has a lot of cool stuff even if you're not running any of the missions.

I’ve never had any interest in warhammer 40k but I love listening to you talking about it. Infectious enthusiasm

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thats so kind! Thank you

[@testaccount6295]

I really like this style of giving us the history and lore of these games & then creating some terrain

[@Sam_888]

You've outdone yourself on this one Eric! That exterior gives a sense of scale and place I don't think I've seen on a table. Looking forward to part 2!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Exactly what i was going for, thank you!

[@impguardwarhamer]

it's a great idea too, since it only really adds a small amount of vertical height it's perfectly practical

[@KnarbMakes]

Thats a sweet project, good distraction from working on the titan for sure.

[@JCetto.2612]

Man! First Henry Cavill and now... Tom Hardy! I found your channel recently, Eric and must say my mind was just blown by your craft! SUBSCRIBED!!! Greetings all the way from Lima, Perú! Keep up the wonderful craft and stay safe!

This is so sick my dude. Congratulations on GW getting in contact for a collaboration, you deserve it! Can't wait to see the next installment

Love it so far! How about on the emperor class, instead of the rod going down, you attached it horizontally to the warp backdrop so it's hidden behind the ship when looking out the windows?

[@LeviathanNightDragon]

I found myself more than once audibly exclamating 'YOOOO' as Eric showed off some of these cool details. I can dream to one day be so creative.

[@pierre-louispicot4598]

Abosolutelely stunning ..... When watching these videos I can never chose what I prefer: the video itself and the quality of the build, or the fact that, in my head, Eric comes from a parallel universe where he is the 3rd brother of two famous gondorians, Boromir and Faramir, and just runs a KZbin channel ...

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Lol never heard that comparison before. I’ll take it i guess haha

[@tcuegonbear]

That segway into the Established Titles plug was masterful. Edit after finishing video: Holy crap dude. That view out the window is straight up jaw dropping! Can't wait for the next part. This is EPIC.

[@nordicson2835]

I can't express how cool this is , a few years ago l bought a space hulk game at a garage sale , my older brother was nursing a broken leg , he put his Lionel train crafting to work making me tons of terrain , and converting 2 inch plastic figures into all sorts of inhabitants of this enormous drifting wreck.

[@hitscanner]

This is art, form and function gloriously fused into a glowing ball of awesomeness! Looking absolutely brilliant mate.

[@treshmiranda699]

flip the can upside down and give it a spray after painting, only air will come out clearing the spray tip, which will prevent splattering.

[@tomtruesdale6901]

I am not a gamer but WOW your work is incredible, that lighten background is first class. Been following your work for a while now and you only get better. Carry on.

[@dallonrobbins5078]

Cool project, I love the effort your putting forth to make this be as impressive and immersive as it is.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thank you! Im stoked with how its coming

[@WulvenKraft]

Really looking forward to seeing this completed! the likely problem with your spray cans is clogged nozzles. When you finish using a spray can turn it upside down & spray until no pigment comes out, this clears the nozzle. Many spray painters take the nozzle off, storing the cans without a nozzle attached, either washing the nozzle or buying replacements.

[@radiumminis]

Oh wow, great lighting really sells the story. Love it!!

[@deadlybeavis2601]

Wow! Just, wow. That's ridiculous awesome.

[@gregburrow3350]

[@ianshaliczer]

I’d suggest mounting the battleship’s flight stand to the side, connected to the backdrop, so it looks even more like it’s floating in space.

[@cliffcampbell8827]

To keep the paint from clogging up your rattle cans, right after you finish with the can, turn it upside down then depress the valve/button until no paint comes out (this effectively clears out the paint from the spray nozzle) usually around a second or two is all it takes. After you turn the can upside down, wait a few seconds for the paint to settle towards the top of the can THEN start purging.

[@correlian1155]

Incredible start. I look forward to seeing it develop

[@NQWG]

Great build, very atmospheric. I have a small suggestion though. If you will add more debris and ships in the background, try pinning them at their side to the backdrop, that way they will look like they are floating instead of standing.

[@DistrictTerra]

If your spray tips are spitting you can either order tips off of a graffitti site or you can often remove them and give them a paint thinner wash/soak in a glass jar and that can often save them. ✌🏻☺️
