That's true....I promise: for the next table, no bricks will be make ahah

My fingers call for help !! XD

Yes, much of the 40K terrain is built with production costs in mind, as well as being a bit undersized. As you can see, making 'true scale terrain' Leads to madness.

if your worried about your factory being to small it does look like you could change it to a church style building really easily

thanks for the suggestion:-)the church is a good idea, but first I want un try to make a factory, and if it wont be good it will become a church :-) I thought that maybe a chemical factory doesn't need un be too big, Or a fuel refinery...what do you think?

Zebr@88

Fuel refineries have a gazillion pipes!

My first thought was something like the optical components from razorbacks/land raiders- something small, specialized, somewhat advanced, and not required in quite the insane quantities that body armor, ammo, etc would be needed in. I'm sure there are plenty of other things that would fit that description.

Otherwise, wow. Everything's looking absolutely fantastic.

Build a large elevator in the center of the factory floor; then fluff it out as an underground facility. LOTS of cities in the fluff have enormous underground facilities to make them more secure. Hive worlds have entire cities on top of cities that are on top of other cities .

That's the best Idea ever I'll make that for sure

Just a question....what's the meaning of "fluff" ?? My friend "google translator" says something about wool

Anyway, thanks for the idea

Fluff refers to the written background of the 40k universe, and is not necessarily related to army lists, or game mechanics.

Wow. This is awesome! I absolutely love how big these buldings are. This is how it should be: huge industrial warehouses and such.

The spacious, flat interiors of the building are great too. Plenty of space to have battles inside buildings.

Great work! keep it up

A Manufactorium could be making pieces of weaponry but not whole weapons, perhaps it manufactures the Power Packs anf general electrical components for Lasguns, or maybe it makes engines for Lemun Russes.

Remember, not all pieces of a certain weapon are made in the same place!

I like how in the Gaunt's Ghost novels their stamped lasrifles are fitted with Tanith-grown Nalwood stocks and grips, it illustrates this idea.

yeah, if you do underground, cut a hole into the floor and make a shaft, paint the whole thing black too, so it looks like its coming from the ground

Hello guys...In the lasts months I had A LOT of problems, and my Computer get broken, so time to work with the terrain and put the results on dakka was impossible...

But from the past week I returned on my bench to work out with the terrain so I'm back to work, and this night (RomeTime) I put some new pics, maximum tomorrow...I Promise

Excellent terrain. This is shaping up to be a really nice board. If it looks this good now I can only imagine what it will be like painted.

Wow! you have done a pile of work here! Very nice!

Love anything like this. Looking great - if its for 40k I'd tend to go more Gothic however.

YES updates!!!!

As I promise, Here's the updates...

I decide to completely destroy the "old" 2 parts of the big houses and make 2 brand new
As Briancj suggest, the rooftop is removable and can be easly assembled with the main structure, the floors and the interiors walls are already made too, but now stop talking and let the images explain the rest














For the eye of the maker ( me) everithing seems perfect, so comments and critics will be apreciated

There is no possible way to comment on something so good

Awesome! Looks great, very realistic. I love the sagging rooftops! Now, paint it up for us!

Sorry man, but I decide to build the entire terrain first, and only then I'll start to paint....There's a lot to wait XD

No kidding
Will there be skulls and other high tech 40k gothic stuff?

Awesome. keep it up.

This is very impressive! My only concern is that the material you are using is very fragile and your beautiful destroyed city may not hold up to aggressive game play. There is a company called Hot Wire Foam Factory . They make a two part coating that will make you foam tons more durable. I would hate to see your work ruined after an aggressive day of game play. Foam tends to dent easily and accidentally leave intentions. If I can find it I'll send you a link. Keep up the great work buddy

brilliant work! color me impressed!

are you sure your making wargaming terrain, and not a miniature scale set for a WWII movie?

Thanks to everyone, too much compliment

@Capitansolstice

don't worry, the idea of the city is in wwII style, the city is very old, but it is populated by wh40k citizien!!so there will be a ogothic chapel, a manufactorum and all the details will be be in wh40k style

@madmartykmf
