Fabricator’s Lair 3D Prints: Epic-Scale Grimdark Ruined Buildings – Part One

Fabricator's Lair 3D Prints: Epic-Scale Grimdark Ruined Buildings

We’re now up to what (I think) are the final models from July-August, sans the round-up post due in a day or two. We have some more pieces by Fabricator’s Lair from the Epic Sector Sanctuary set. This time a bunch of oh-so-very-current-Warhammer 40k “L-shaped ruins”.

“The Part 1” in the title is just future-proofing myself for eventually printing and painting some of the other variations of these in the future, but no plans for that right now. As you can see, I did the Mirror thing with the printer to create some extra variations on these. I got mixed up at some stage and actually did three of the one above (despite only two in that image).

These went through a couple of iterations in the painting. Originally I just wanted to paint them grey, drybrush, weather a little with charring and be done. I did that but wasn’t happy with it, so I redid them in a style that imitated the look of the larger Damaged Buildings, which I felt a lot better about once I’d done them.

These little ones will simply add a bit of LOS-blocking for the smaller models in a LI game, I reckon.

And a couple of pics alongside the damaged buildings and some scale-appropriate models.

These make the final July-August models for the “official” time period of Dave Stone’s Season of Scenery ’25.

    • Thank you!

      Just looked up the old Epic 40,000 starter – those plastic ruins look pretty good to me, even by today’s standards.

      Yours of course have the advantage of having been painted a hell of a lot longer and used in a hell of a lot more games! 🙂

    • Thanks John. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve been working on for it. 👍
      I’ll put together the July-August round-up tomorrow amd then I can start on showing September’s models!
      I’ve got 9 more that I’m hoping to finish this month. Wish me luck!

    • Thanks mate. I like to drybrush this sort of thing with a makeup brush using Vallejo’s Panzergrau Primer. All the edges of “broken” bits, plus an upwars drybrush from windows in areas where there would theoretically have been fires burning – and floor areas around that.
