oh...so NOW its the big tease?!?!?! After all this stalling with (granted pretty reasonably enjoyable) videos on photography, old land speeders, forests and boards you FINALLY deign to mention the potential return of this channels main character...If its not the one and only Health and Safety Frog you sir...are a dead Man!!!!!
This is the very first time I have ever seen anything from Warhammer painted. I am blown away by the process and the love that goes into a board like this. That was a great video.
8:20 I agree, scatter terrain should be asymmetrically placed on the board, leaving some areas open and some areas cluttered for tactical cover purposes (usually three or five small scatter pieces in each cluttered area). It’s a fine balance of artistic composition and war-gaming playability.
I'm getting back into 40K but am disabled now so having been finding things a bit more challenging than before. I want to enjoy my hobby more and your videos really open things up for people like us. Thanks for sharing 👍
Interesting concept using that cheap underfloor matting as I have stacks of it never used and my last table idea - never finished Dave but might give yours a go, except I have Necromancer terrain and around 60 Orks to place behind suitable barricades, ready to do battle.
Came to see a sick board, stayed to get absolutely nostalgia blasted by the Deadly Premonition OST and then the Great Ace Attorney OST. that's the good shit brother
Hell yeah thats the stuff! Very little in this hobby more satisfying than a great table. I'd love to make something like this one day. Until then I shall live vicariously through your awesome vids!
I've been in a massive hobby rut for the past three months and nowt I have done has motivated me to pick up the brushes. Until now, thanks for getting the hobby juices flowing.
Some advice, if the board you're making is only going to be used a few times then go for normal plaster, after a while it chip.. but if you want it to last use Ultracal plaster, it dries super hard and will last longer, use it just the same as normal plaster. I used to make gaming tables and I always used ultracal.
Looking at doing an Armies on Parade board this year. This looks like a great way to do one as a beginner (only done one before as a hodgepodge of expanding foam on an old ceiling tile)
Board looks great! Really pushes me to finally get going on my D&D board as I keep putting it off and have just gotten to the point where mats are not cutting it and I have somewhere more permanent to game.
This is awesome! I was thinking about making a skirmish board and building it like a picture frame bottom to hang it on my gaming room wall in between sessions. Just have to think on how to make the bottom of the thing work the way I want.
"right fine F**k off then" 😂 I thought it was only me that swore at his paints!❤️ Love the channel Dave, not into war gaming but love the scenery and painting stuff, transferrable techniques for the railway modelling stuff I do ❤️
It's hilarious to me that I was JUST talking about your videos in another person's stream during the week and the conversation goes around to how high your AV production value is and then you drop this vid. Incredible build and that intro was a whole fucking thing. Love it.
@@MSPaints It was the Discourse Miniatures stream. We were just in chat talking about TH-camrs that are ACTUALLY worth watching and you came up as one of the best.
Looks so good ! I know it wouldn't look as good but to make things easier for storage would it be possible to build a board like this but in pieces with little magnets to stick it together ?
The presentation and easy tips are fantastic - looks good - but I don't enjoy 'non level' surfaces - I just bought a large pair of detailed vinyl mats. Boom!
That's some incredible work, I absolutely love this grimdark hellhole! You should put another dead Jürgen next to one of the muddy pools... because, y'know, casualties. Also, did you make a video about the gothic church ruins (which can be seen from 3:59)?
This is amazing 10/10 if your open to a suggestion for another board, an ork junk yard would look great with the mek workshop as the centre piece, could make a good attack and defence type board
Mate!? What happened? You haven't posted in a long while. I hope you are alright and for more selfish reasons I need you to make more content as it (as probably many here) got me moving and shaking but in a positive way this time, through tough times. Big love, we need you man.
I love how much room there is for different opinions in this hobby...you looked at a bunch of materials and said "let's build a board"...I looked at the same set of materials and immediately said "let's just order a gaming mat"...much love to your way of thinking though.
this board is sick. i never thought about doiin kill team stuff on a normal battleground cause it always seems like some elite objective stuff, but this to me is awesome cause its like to me the story is the very last orks and very last kriegsman of the whole war on the planet goin at it for one last charge, OR SCRAP, to see who wins long after the impirium has abandoned the planet and the rest of the orks have fled to lick there wounds
loved this one! is that little bits of your dreads you are sticking down around the 18:40 mark ;) Thank you so much for the amount of effort you put in on these productions
Okay this looks really good. Only thing I would suggest isn't so much a board thing as maybe add an overhead light system to a cradle for the board, attach a color change light or two and suddenly you can have night games, a red flare bathed battlefield or even a toxic smog or cloud of Ork spores if you use a greenish yellow light
Nice, I've got loadsa that foam insulation sheet stuff and plywood from turning my shed into a workshop, I'll have to give this a try after I've given my space marines an imperial fisting... I probably could've worded that better.

All your hopes shall be answered, my friend. Brace yourself for Hector’s very own video.

I've always wanted to make a beachhead style board with a sheer cliff and gun emplacement. This was exactly what I needed to motivate me
Omaha
@@shibuishibui3706
That is almost exactly what I indisposed but I want to tech it up so it's like a 40k Omaha.
Terrain Tutor did a huge board like that for WWII. I recommend.
That is a great looking board, mate
Thanks mate! And thanks for checking in!
I appreciate your calm tone of voice, not every video needs to have a muppet of a person screaming at you. Great video, will watch more and more.

Aaaaaaall good. Honestly, these board builds are easier to do for people like us than painting is. Basically making a cake and drybrushing it.
Found this beaut of a channel from the painting phase and now going to add board making to my list of to-do's.
Absolutely knocking it out of the park with the production value!
Interesting concept using that cheap underfloor matting as I have stacks of it never used and my last table idea - never finished Dave but might give yours a go, except I have Necromancer terrain and around 60 Orks to place behind suitable barricades, ready to do battle.
60 orks sounds cool.
Really awesome looking video, I've been thinking about making terrain boards for D&D, and this is a really good way to go about it
"Sand can look like gravel on a driveway"
And now I can't unsee that on all my models with sandy bases. Thank you.
I’m sorry. I had it ruined once for me too.
Came to see a sick board, stayed to get absolutely nostalgia blasted by the Deadly Premonition OST and then the Great Ace Attorney OST. that's the good shit brother
Ooooh I know how to throw a nostalgia party!
That is some genius mic placement at @17:15 . Another belter video as always Dave
It just sounds best there hahaha
Holy crap that opening was incredible!
3:07 Looks like the start of my Friday night.
you did it mate, made a fantastic board, and also kept me half-drunk at 03:00 am watching the entire length of the video...great work sir.
That's cool. Never thought about just making a board.
Hell yeah thats the stuff! Very little in this hobby more satisfying than a great table. I'd love to make something like this one day. Until then I shall live vicariously through your awesome vids!
I've been in a massive hobby rut for the past three months and nowt I have done has motivated me to pick up the brushes. Until now, thanks for getting the hobby juices flowing.
I am happy to provide the juice!
@@MSPaints Filth. Love it. 😁
This needs more Views, also the Special effects Editing is better than all Tabletop Game Channels ive seen
Thanks mate! I do try! After Effects came with the editing software and thought it’d be rude not to learn it!
Some advice, if the board you're making is only going to be used a few times then go for normal plaster, after a while it chip.. but if you want it to last use Ultracal plaster, it dries super hard and will last longer, use it just the same as normal plaster. I used to make gaming tables and I always used ultracal.
Man, that opening puts what I'm working on to shame. Nice compositing and vfx. Nice board as well.
the edited segment at the beginning is literally perfect (or would be) for a battle report
My maaaaan. Send me some snaps on Instagram when it’s done! Let’s be board buddies!
This is a GREAT video on boards and a huge guide on my approach to a build I'm doing myself, love the tips and tricks thank you
Thank you for this! Been looking for videos on this topic. Want to build a display board mini table for my Chaos knights
Dude that was straight up art
Thank you bud!
Looking at doing an Armies on Parade board this year.
This looks like a great way to do one as a beginner (only done one before as a hodgepodge of expanding foam on an old ceiling tile)
This is my usual go to method, barring the plastic. Doesn’t cost much as it’s massively low stress. Good luck!
I just got the new-ish kill team with the Death korps in it. as I speak I am building orks
It’s a great starter set. Really enjoying it.
Board looks great! Really pushes me to finally get going on my D&D board as I keep putting it off and have just gotten to the point where mats are not cutting it and I have somewhere more permanent to game.
8:00 - would love to see a video of the old stuff you have kicking around. Also, the final table looks amazing.
I got oooooold crap for days. Sooooon!
@@MSPaints yeah man! Old historicals sound dope. Even doing some old model kit work would be awesome
Those plastic strips are for edging shower panelling in bathrooms when you get to a corner.
Noted! Thank you
Cracking work there!
This is awesome! I was thinking about making a skirmish board and building it like a picture frame bottom to hang it on my gaming room wall in between sessions. Just have to think on how to make the bottom of the thing work the way I want.
that red light from the side looked fantastic!
Momma always said if you’re unsure it’ll hold up on camera, blast a coloured light in there.
Amazing artistic skill here and you gave me some excellent ideas for my own builds. Thanks for sharing Dave!
No dramas, House!
Looks awesome, thanks for sharing!
Fun video! Thanks for sharing
"right fine F**k off then" 😂 I thought it was only me that swore at his paints!❤️
Love the channel Dave, not into war gaming but love the scenery and painting stuff, transferrable techniques for the railway modelling stuff I do ❤️
Terrain is the main draw for me, and your works always astound me! Cheers man
DAMN Mad Dog Macree!
Good to hear some Deadly Premonition music.

My maaaaan! What's the stream? is it knocking around online? Haha, thanks for the kind words!
@@MSPaints It was the Discourse Miniatures stream. We were just in chat talking about TH-camrs that are ACTUALLY worth watching and you came up as one of the best.
@@scannerbarkly oh wowza. I’ll give that a watch lad. Thanks for the shout
WARHAMMER board build mmm awesome Dave. I really need to refined my Warhammer mojo
First time watching your channel. I like the no nonsense approach, nothing sensational like it's the best thing since sliced bread ! Just subscribed.
Thank you! I don’t have the energy for being sensational, haha
2:35 nice caulk
Thank you for the kind words about my caulk. I get self conscious.
Awesome job. Great looking board, great tutorial, gives me some solid instruction for planning my first board. Thanks!
Wicked intro!! Which matches the rest of the episode!
"Cheap-O" - Music to my ears.
Looks so good !
I know it wouldn't look as good but to make things easier for storage would it be possible to build a board like this but in pieces with little magnets to stick it together ?

I appreciate the deadly premonition soundtrack anytime of day.
I loved this but more than anything the banter was top notch. Love it. Great stuff \m/
Badass board
Looks fantastic. The way you mix your modelling compound with all your rings on though.....
Honestly, when your own immune system is slowly killing you, you learn to stop caring about plaster on your rings for a couple of days.
Looks fantastic! Ever since I watched 1917 ive wanted to make a game board with that style. Love it!
Amazing video bro. Love this. So concise, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
You’re welcome Tony!
Great build. True inspiration 👍🏻
Absolutely love it.
Great end result and a joy to watch as always. Thankyou
Cheers!
building a space hulk. for ship battle's would be good. and you can store all the away easily aswell. 💯😊👌
i think a video on how you store everything would be pretty cool!
Well you make it look easy
It is! Just takes about 3 days of time haha
This is amazing 10/10 if your open to a suggestion for another board, an ork junk yard would look great with the mek workshop as the centre piece, could make a good attack and defence type board
Pure skill making that look so good
Love these shots
i love this, I would like to make a mars board or one for the moon
Mate!? What happened? You haven't posted in a long while. I hope you are alright and for more selfish reasons I need you to make more content as it (as probably many here) got me moving and shaking but in a positive way this time, through tough times. Big love, we need you man.
I put a video out last week… at least I think I did.
Amazing board!
I love how much room there is for different opinions in this hobby...you looked at a bunch of materials and said "let's build a board"...I looked at the same set of materials and immediately said "let's just order a gaming mat"...much love to your way of thinking though.
My dad does the same when he's watching my videos. 'Coulda just bought a gaming mat.' 'you can get those display bases pre cut.' hahaha
@@MSPaints but I bet like all of us he is both grateful and proud that there are capable people like you out there!
this board is sick. i never thought about doiin kill team stuff on a normal battleground cause it always seems like some elite objective stuff, but this to me is awesome cause its like to me the story is the very last orks and very last kriegsman of the whole war on the planet goin at it for one last charge, OR SCRAP, to see who wins long after the impirium has abandoned the planet and the rest of the orks have fled to lick there wounds
That looks stellar man. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Just time time! I started building my first board the other day. I'll be stealing some of these techniques.
Steal away!
I'm building my first board with this tutorial! Wish me luck! Great video and easy to follow :D
Good luck!
@@MSPaints Thank you!! 😁
Great work!
loved this one! is that little bits of your dreads you are sticking down around the 18:40 mark ;) Thank you so much for the amount of effort you put in on these productions
Haha, brutal. I had to go and check. Not the first time I’ve got one stuck in a resin pour!
Lovely job on that 🙂
They are cornerbeads. they make nice corners on things that would have corners.
Looks amazing! Would be cool to see a battle on it with the cool editing skills alongside it. Cheers!
Only just found this video, love the board! Amazing job
Great work.
Alright, o gotta know........ whats the music at 13:25? anybody know it?
Class board man. Love me some Caulk.
Duper dig that board! But that TREMORS SHIRT!!!
A great board Dave
Great job!👏🏻
Looks awesome! Also love the use of the Deadly Premonition music 😊
I had a double take when it started playing- loving the production on this one!
Phenomenal!
Okay this looks really good. Only thing I would suggest isn't so much a board thing as maybe add an overhead light system to a cradle for the board, attach a color change light or two and suddenly you can have night games, a red flare bathed battlefield or even a toxic smog or cloud of Ork spores if you use a greenish yellow light
So many hints and tips buried in the text. Top stuff. Bring back Sir 'Ector. 😉
Oh lawd he comin’!
That my dude was absolutely PHEnominal.
Thanks bud!
Nice, I've got loadsa that foam insulation sheet stuff and plywood from turning my shed into a workshop, I'll have to give this a try after I've given my space marines an imperial fisting... I probably could've worded that better.
You worded it just fine.
Very cool board man! Really like the trenches especially !!
Thank you buuuuuud!
looks awesome
Cracking build and video work as always. Cheers!
This is awesome!
hey dude you rock, cheers from brazil
came for the modelling, stayed for the music
The intro is absolutely golden "don't know what the fuck they do" - had me laughing tears. Almost your best video "humorwise". I loved every minute!!
