😂😂😂

[@tw0crows74]

I love this idea of using old toys, I used an old gi joe action force boat to look like a crashed sci-fi ship that could be added to a table when i was about 16....I'm now 41 and wish I still had all my old toys 🤣

[@TheVasgal]

You're the Macgyver of terrain, building marvelous with only trash... and a lot of talent and patience painting

[@dungeonbearden]

You read my mind.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Macgyver of terrain! I like that hahahaha

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Awesome build mate !

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Dark Matter Workshop thank you! I will send you that list later today. My apologies I’ve been busy this week

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Eric's Hobby Workshop no prob. man 😉

[@nickn4127]

I hope your channel blows up man, because your work is fantastic!!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Nicholas Norton Thanks ! I appreciate that

[@mattialarocca8914]

I just LOVE the way you reinvent toys and trash

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks Mattia! I enjoy it too

[@acl2707]

The video transports us to a dystopian future where the uncertainty of survival immerses the viewer in an immersive experience accentuated by the chosen soundtrack. Good job.

[@Malgor00]

During the building phase, I honestly thought this piece looked like crap. There were too many different textures, but when you black bombed it... WOW!!! And the industrial green paint was a stroke of genius.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

The Malgor my wife is the same... it can be hard to see past the crazy colours! She always thinks what I’m making is terrible until its painted

[@Malgor00]

It wasn't just the wild colors (although they were quite garish), it was all the different materials you used to make up the floors and such not. I had to go back and re-watch the first vud to see how it all came together.

[@richardthomas8415]

Just genius!... the strength of your concepts with each of these successive pieces is incredible, there are so many pictures online where you can see someone has used a pipe elbow or a CD container or a coffee cup lid etc but your build and painting techniques really disguise the materials you use and make the finished piece so believable and authentic!... Inspired man.. truly inspired 👍👍👍

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thank you! I really try to hide the pieces. The human eye is great at seeing familiar patterns so i try to stay away from shapes that are too recognizable or find a way to alter and hide them.

[@kirkgeier417]

Seeing the whole complex together with guys on it looks great!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks Kirkus decimus meridius

[@corkey2077]

This is just awesome, you must be so patient working with all that masking fluid

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Mi Shed actually I am terribly impatient and have a short attention span. Sometimes you get in the zone and things just flow though

[@TJM108]

That last shot was so dope - would love to see a full 'table' showcase with all your pieces, or even a bat rep :) Keep up the fantastic work mate - it's super inspiring!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Trent Matthews lots of people have been asking for a bat-rep. I might just have to do one!

[@soundtrackfortheend]

Your use of various materials is such an inspiration! It's not easy to make good scratch built sci-fi terrain!

[@Palocles]

This looks cool but I think the ones you did later with more colour look better. Nothing wrong with having a bit of variety in colourfulness though.

[@PlatypusScotsman]

The construction and overall design is sweet. You did a top notch job. Well done sir.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Platypus Scotsman thank you! I like your username

[@johnkelley9877]

Beautiful work! It looks very realistic and the splash of green and the graffiti really bring it to life. I am looking forward to more of your tutorials as I think your work is incredible.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

John Kelley much appreciated! I often send WIP pics to my family members and they are always pushing me for more colour, so thank them!! Hahaha

[@dermaajages]

Jesus Eric. This is just amazing. Your level of detail from scrap is on a whole new level. Great video (as usual)

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Daniel Bode thanks! I try to make my pieces look interesting from every angle

[@dermaajages]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop i must say it's a succes

[@norcalonline1]

Top notch, mate. Very inspirational. I'm going to drag out my box of bits, greebles, and empty containers to build one of these this weekend.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

norcalonline1 alright! I always like to hear that my videos put people in the mood to craft

[@veiledrecalcitrance4314]

I’ve got to be honest, this is amazing, I just watched another channel where the guy (with a much larger channel) struggled to build something unbelievably basic, and basically showed the hardest way possible to build something fairly easy, not really helping the viewers, it was lazy. then I watch this, and the 1st segment, and I’m just blown away by how good this came out, you basically show how with imagination and some random parts you can take all sorts of things and make something frigging epic. Really nice job man, seriously

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Gabriel Strom Was it also a long vid. (+ 15 min.) ? 😏

[@veiledrecalcitrance4314]

Dark Matter Workshop yup, it certainly was

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

I’m not sure exactly who you are talking about, but generally speaking I think some of the larger channels commit to posting at regular intervals for algorithmic purposes and channel growth. I admire this consistency immensely, but also sympathize with them because for me, that would likely cause issues with burnout and quality control. I also struggle to do certain things that may seem simple to others at times. Not every video is going to be a home run, this is true of every content creator on KZbin! I like to judge people by their best work, and the big channels are big for a reason...because they have put out tons of awesome content over the years. I appreciate your comment though and am really glad you have been enjoying my videos!

[@yaseenbrown]

I don't know why youtube recomened your work to me since I don't know anything about Warhammer but you skill and craftsmanship rivals anything I've seen in the sculpture department at my university. Great work, keep it up man you are truly talented and thanks for sharing it with us.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Yaseen Brown thats really nice to hear, thank you. The algorithm works in mysterious ways!

[@anthonytoronov407]

Very nice and satisfying to watch!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Anthony Toronov ayyy thanks Tone. :D

[@someguycamping9972]

That chipping effect... genius. Will have to steal for my own projects. It honestly does look like legit natural paint chipping off. Got a cement porch that looks like that building

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

SomeGuyCamping sounds like a pretty grimdark porch!!! Hahaha thanks some guy

[@kirksabio2382]

SUCH HIGH QUALITY STUFF YO 😩👌

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Kirk Sabio thanks kirk! Those two emojis together made me laugh for some reason

[@MidwinterMinis]

If these builds get much bigger, you're going to have to hire a realtor to sell them for you.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Midwinter Minis hahahaha just trying to keep up with GW size creep!

[@davidmacphee5449]

Been watching these videos in this series going back to the start and up to now, and getting better and better. Definitely agree with others about opening up eyes to using everyday household items and reusing things like old toys to make interesting shapes and constructs.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

David MacPhee it feels pretty cool to think i can make others look at the world differently. Thanks for your comment!

Love the coherence of the grim look of all your terrains, really inspiring! Keep it up!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Coherence is really nice for modular setups. I’ve been trying to work some more colour in while still keeping the same look. Thanks for your comment!

[@shaneflickinger]

Fantastic centerpiece for your table. Looks great with catwalks going off in all directions to other pieces. Also, you gotta get yourself a can of burnt sienna spray paint. That's a lot to do with a brush! Cheers Mr. Eric!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Shane Flickinger the cheap paint i use is pretty thick with a rubbery sort of medium. This allows me to do some impasto-like texture and fill minor gaps if needed with the paint. The hard part about these builds are choices -each decision uses mental energy. Painting everything one colour is basically done on autopilot while watching tv with my wife or something, so it uses almost zero mental energy. On the flip side, I would need to take a rattlecan outside to spray. Long story short, I’m not likely to switch over in the near future! I appreciate the thought though.

[@Virakotxa]

In the end looks incredible... Truly inspiring!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thank you! Is you name an alternate spelling of Viracocha the Incan deity? I did a cool school project on the Inca many years ago

[@Virakotxa]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Indeed! Well catched...

[@swordb3ar]

Just discovered this channel and you are quickly becoming my favorite hobby terrain maker! Your eye for shapes and breaking up bland areas is immaculate, and seeing the progress on this build was incredibly inspiring! Have you ever considered doing a video on sourcing all these crazy bits? I'm sure it is partially an acquired skill browsing dollar stores and thrift shops, but a video on looking for certain shapes and items would be awesome I think. Keep up the great work! This was the fastest subscribe in a while and I've already shown my other wargaming friends this channel. Cheers 👍

[@johncostello5869]

Its really cool to see all the different gangs, marines etc at the end

[@howardnenno1806]

If you want to improve the quality of your home made washes, add a drop of Jet Dry, the stuff you put in your dishwasher to keep your dishware from streaking.It's super cheap, can usually be found at the dollar store, and acts as a flow aid. I use it in all of mine and it does make a nice difference.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks howard, i have heard that but yet to try it. Im going to be making a batch of homemade black wash soon and will look into it

[@howardnenno1806]

I use a very slightly modified version of black magic craft home made wash recipe. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6DOhIx-qpprjJo

[@mrpylak7103]

Keep it up! I think you are gonna be huge. Everything you have done so far has been excellent and crafting at its finest. Excellent!

[@annatoronova7361]

I see you upgraded your mic, nice. I love the concept of upcycling with trash. Hopefully one day you'll get a chance to work with larger scale pieces, it would be awesome to see something like this larger scale at an art gallery or museum!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks Anna. Glad you noticed about the mic :D my pieces keep getting bigger and better I think, so who knows where this will go

[@RPArchiveOfficial]

Soviet era source material is a solid idea for grimdark actually, good shout!

Awesome build!

[@mykyzer23]

Great job mate, another way on how to build/paint industrial pieces its really interesting. The extra shots were good to see also

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Glad you liked the extra shots. I will have a video coming soon that is only shots like those with no tutorial element and I am curious to see how it is received by the audience.

[@MaxDMCrafting]

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Tomasz Hebel both good associations! Thanks Tomasz!

[@timothyperrigoue3997]

You nailed it when it came to the end of the Vid. I love to paint Miniatures... but I don't play the games. Now you have given me a good reason to build something similar, and I do not have to worry about "Playability" of the terrain since it is for display only.

[@TheDungeonMattster]

So detailed and amazing! I've been really wanting to play with styrene bits and bobs for a while now. Just found your channel and some of the stuff I've seen so far is really interesting and unique. Great job!

[@adammoore251]

Dear Eric. I fell into the miniature painting hobby recently and found your channel. Because of you, I am now awaiting the arrival of Necromunda Underhive( a game I know very little about), a squad of Pallatine Enforce+cards(~$100🤐) and Im now spending about 15% of my awake time looking for junk to turn into terrain. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thanks for your comment Adam! Its a wonderful hobby and Necromunda is a great game system, you will love it! I have some enforcers I need to build too

[@septimus64]

Very cool build. I find your vids to be very inspirational.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Cine Dave thanks Dave! Glad to hear it

[@adrians2190]

I enjoy your videos. A suggestion if I may. Regarding your wash, it may flow better if you add a surfactant, a chemical which reduces surface tension of water, you can buy these, but a drop or two of dish washing up liquid will do the trick. It improves flow and reduces wash clumping and collecting on flat surfaces Regards.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Adrian S ahh yes, surfactant is one of the cool words this hobby has taught me! i think i did add a drop of dish soap I just forgot to mention it. Anyways, I’m gonna cook up a better batch of wash to have on hand using some acrylic medium and stuff. Thanks Adrian!

[@stevenwestfall7638]

*Saves to watch later....damn it, I'm stuck at work....*

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Let me know what you think!!

[@WylochsArmory]

I think we all have much to learn from you. Gonna give your standard metal approach a try this weekend, love it. Question - exactly what modular toy plates do you use for your catwalks?

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Wyloch's Armory its called roominate. I think its kindof a dollhouse building toy aimed at little girls. I found a big box of the pieces at the thrift store

[@rekakristo1002]

You might want to try using a cheap soft bristle toothbrush to remove the masking fluid. And to bend those thin plastic tubes without flames and hazardous fumes, thread a thin but strong wire through it and bend it with that. Love the build!

[@barrackaobammacka521]

Looks very cool 😎 of how you can build something like that using some simple elements from your daily life! Nice skills man!

[@saucercrabzero]

This one is another absolute homerun! I have to admit I was most excited for the build video last week, expecting the paint portion to be less exciting, but it was not the case at all! The masking fluid and paint job turned out amazing, and you really kicked it into high gear when you showed the screen glow effect, and the free-hand graffiti was excellent! Some ideas for patron content, set up a gallery or Pinterest of the reference photos you use, maybe a video on how to do the layered graffiti on a miniature scale, or pictures of the specific paints you use, I'd especially like to know that gray-green one! Oh and the new mic sounds great! You are improving so quickly, you'll be at 50k subs in no time.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

saucercrabzero those are great ideas! Thank you. Im glad i made the choice to do a two part video for this project, there would have been too many cuts for just one video, or a really long video which I am trying to avoid

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

One thing that gave me confidence - this is supposed to be gang graffiti, not street artists! There is no portfolio submission stage is most gang initiations as far as I know. Lots of the gang graffiti i looked up was very basic- just some tags scrawled hastily on the wall in a single colour. This really helped me just go for it!

[@harlandmountain7998]
