Just found this. Sorry, I'm late to the party. This looks GREAT! Lots of simple techniques that all came together really nicely. I love that you can use it for Walking Dead or Mars Attacks.
Never late to the party buddy - if you just found it its a new video! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this video, I'm going to be making my first board ever for this same game so this is perfect for helping me figure out where to start!
Hi Kikii, thanks for watching and commenting. Glad you found this helpful and good luck making yours. It's a great game too so worth making the board for!
Wow Blackjack.. I just started loving the Walking Dead : All Out War Miniatures game and you just inspired my artistry with replacing all of the cardboard and paper scenery pieces with real ones. Love your tips and tricks with using all of my moving boxes for something other then taking up space in the garage. HAHAHA!! But I will definitely use some corkboard to get that extra effect. Thanks again for inspiring me and getting me back into the scenery craft trade.
Thanks TheKrazyErik - really glad you've got the bug back for making stuff. This was the first game I really felt like putting that extra effort into the scenery. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Looks great
Great video and a fairly simple project. Thanks for posting, mate!
No worries. Glad you enjoyed it.
That was simple and yet very well done! I'm inspired to go do mine now :)
Cheers Steven. Glad you found it helpful 😁
Hi my friend,I really like your board. I found it very easy to do. I've been having issues building a basic terrain board for my zombicide and heroclix, but this video helped alot. Hopefully you will show more videos like this.
Really glad you liked it and found it easy to follow. I enjoyed making it so no reason not to do more :) Thanks for watching and commenting.
Going to work on building this, the game is great and I'm excited to play it in a 3D environment
Hey Daniel, really glad you found the build useful. Loads more Walking Dead content to come on the channel in the future so stay tuned :) Thanks for watching and commenting.
Very nice work and excellent presentation. Your effort is appreciated.
Thanks Peter - really appreciate your kind words.
looks great thanks for the inspiration and the depth of explaining.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Really glad you found it useful.
Are you going to upload some batrep? I would really love to see the board being used
Thats the plan. Just pushing through getting everything painted up first. Walkers almost done then will start on the survivors this week. Watch this space!
Looks great!
Thanks
Super stuff, Andy. Looks good and really well presented :-)
Thanks mate. This is my second ever video! Still one of my favourites. I learned a lot about editing making this one.
Lovely board. You've got mad skills, mate.
Thank you! Cheers!
I found and old gem here Andy! With u looking 4 year older then u do now ;)
Haha my second ever video! An oldie but a goodie
Thank you so much! Going to copy these techniques for fallout wasteland warfare.
Thanks - let me know how it goes 👍🏼
Excellent tutorial, thank you 😊
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏼
Thanks BlackJack a great tutorial. I watched it back on the day you released it and always planned to use your tutorial as big inspiration for my own board. Well a few days ago I made my board and it has turned out great! It is the same basic formula as yours but I used cardboard instead of corkboard, then I used a sand/polyfilla/sand mix and slapped that on the cardboard. It dried very well and very hard. So for anyone wanting to make this boad but hasn't got corkboard, use cardboard! :)
Thanks again for the video, I am planning on making some tents very soon too :-)
Hey Jacky Brown - Glad to see it it inspired you to make your own board and great shout ion the cardboard/filler option. Would really like to see what you've done .... have you shared a photo anywhere?
I hope this link works... I am no camera man LOL I am very happy with it and am going to make a camp board to connect via the grass if need be to make a double sized board; for which I am making some tents from your other tutorial :-)

The link works great and the board looks fantastic. I love the texture on the card/filler. Also love the Deadzone and Hero Quest pics too!
oh I didn't realise you could see the other photos! LOL I made the Deadzone board using the polyfilla/sand/paint mix too. I got big inspiration from LukesAPS youtube channel, you may be interested in some of his videos.
I am absolutely loving Walking Dead at the momemnt and am avidly trying to make as much terrain as possible..that being said have you any other tutorials in the pipeline? :)
Fantastic board sir, will definitely be making that and look forward to anymore you do.

Thanks for the kind words James. Planning on something during the Christmas holidays so stay tuned 😉
BlackJack Legacy Was looking for your twitter to check out other subscibers efforts but cant seem to see it on here?
You can find me on Twitter @BlackJackLegacy but it's pretty quiet there. I do have a Facebook group where subscribers share there work if you're on there?
great work
Nice tutorial, thanks for sharing.
Dan Cain no problem! Thanks for watching.
Awesome board
Cheers Jason. Glad you like it.
hello, i made my own board yesterday, thanks to your tuto ;) i added more textures
glad you found it helpful. Why not follow me on Twitter and share some pictures of your board. Would love to see what you've added.
BlackJack Legacy sorry i don't have Twitter, but you can find me on Facebook: Maxime Gros Lemming ;)
thanks ! great video !
i'm a french baker, and recieved mine this weekend, so i was searching for materials and tutos to mke my board. Yours is just perfect ;)
Emixam Pierre thanks for the kind words. If you need any specific information then please just ask!
BlackJack Legacy yeah sure ! i think that i'll not beaucoup able to start mine this week because of my Game design school ^^ Will you do a tuto to do the other map ?
Emixam Pierre yeah sure why not. I had fun making this one although editing the video took just as long!
BlackJack Legacy Just can you write the material list of what you used to do the table, i have some difficulties to anderstand all what you say (i have difficulties with some english accent sorry ^^)
Emixam Pierre yes of course and sorry on the accent! I'll add a full list in the description to the video later today.
Nice!Thanks for tutorial anf great movie.Unfortunitly I terrible understand English by listening,but it was very simple to understand your speach!Thank you again and get lucky!
Hey Bogdan, I’m really glad it was helpful and thank you for watching and commenting
+BlackJack Legacy where it is possible to buy some cork tiles 3 mm thick?
I’m not sure where you are Bogdan but I buy mine from a DIY shop in the U.K. they’re sold as cork floor tiles.
+BlackJack Legacy I understood you,thanks)
Nice work on the board and effect it is too. Did you know the maps in the game actually fit together, which I think is a nice touch. Keep up the good work
Panzer Kaput thanks again! Yeah I'd saw they fitted together. I have another 24" x 24" piece of MDF ready to add to this one. If there's interest I'll film a step by step for that too.
BlackJack Legacy Yes please! This tutorial was awesome!
Anthony Mangia thanks. If all goes to plan that's this weekends task and video up early next week.
nice done mate!
Cheers Adrian
Nice build with the board, added this to my TH-cam list for referring to at a later date, can I ask where you are based as I believe I can hear an accent that is suggesting Newcastle/Gateshead/Shields/Sunderland in the N.E of England.
Thanks! Yeah I'm in Newcastle from Sunderland originally and worked in South Shields for 10 years so have a real mixed North East accent! Are you in the North East too?
So because of you I went out to the craft and hardware store to get everything. Just finished doing the black base coat.
I grabbed the wrong thickness cork board, too thin. But it'll work.
What did you use to glue down the cork? Thank you! Really enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching and great to hear it inspired you to make your own. I used Superglue to stick down the cork. It dries quick and sticks it down solid. You can also use a PVA glue but you just need to put something heavy on top of the cork and leave it to dry overnight.
Why not follow me on Twitter and share your board when its done?
Very simple and very cool bud
Thanks! :)
great video!
thoughts are heresy thanks! Really appreciate you watching and giving some feedback.
going to the DIY market this saturday and building my own too, thx for the source of inspiration
thoughts are heresy glad to help
Nice one :o)
pnatiger thanks for watching and commenting. 👍🏼
Lol great vid
Thanks buddy!
Great video are you gonna make the other map as well ?
Thanks Guy. I'm planning on it but been tied up painting the minis and playing the game. Might get to it over the Christmas break.
Really liked this - as someone brand new to this type of gaming (and the whole painting miniatures thing is alien to me, too!) -- this at least gives me hope that it's not beyond the realms of feasibility to 'have a go' myself. Am also looking for a decent painting guide (for beginners!) to my 'vanilla' Walking Dead figures. Any suggestions?
Hey R A Bardy - the trick is to not get overwhelmed by some of the "pro painters" you see here on TH-cam and on Facebook. The minis are 28mm high and you'll be looking at them from arms length so don't stress about details when first starting out. I'm in the process of making a beginners guide so keep watching the channel. Unitil then I can recommend this guy th-cam.com/video/Xxm7Y0IJ10U/w-d-xo.html
What type of back paint did you use?
I just used a matt black non drip water based paint. I only used that particular one as I had it in my shed. It says on the tin suitable for wood and metal. Its the same as this one however they only seem to have white online.

No problem. Thanks again.
