This may well be the most detailed and finessed build we've ever done! We really hope you like it, it was a huge undertaking and we're very proud! This video is a bit outside our usual these days, so if you know a board gamer who might be keen, share it around! Every bit helps! Thanks all!
Amazing work, I want it! Any chance you can scan this and create a height map that can be 3d printed? Would love to print it in sections to recreate it!
Surprised you did not use something like a vibrating knife to cut the cork. Or digitally sculpt the buildings. The effort you used however is to be applauded. This is the peek content I love from TTT. Only thing missing is Murray Method paint job!
@@jphanks laser cutters are great, my life is much poorer since I am prevented to going to my makers space to smell the glorious smell if laser burnt MDF. The problem is laser cutters are great for 2d designs, and a lot of the buildings are 2.5d to 3d. Maybe if Jazza ponies up a CNC machine for Dave to cut buildings with greeblies on them but they are an order of magnitude more complex and inherently more dangerous than a laser cutter. Oh well....
I very specifically wanted to make this build as hand crafted as possible! Hence the minimal use of laser cutter and 3D printing. I only 3D printed the ships because physically making them at that scale would have been almost impossible
I know nothing about Dune, but this is a stunning board. The tiny details on the city settled next to the openness of a sand desert sea makes something in my brain happy. Thank you Dave Murray and Jenn for bringing this awesomeness to us all. Looking forward to next week talk video, and the project for next Sunday. Have a good one, and Happy Mother’s Day to all the awesome Moms out there
Walk without rhythm, you won't attract the worm: Bootsy Collins. But Bootsy, TTT walks with funk. And the worms love the funk, look at the worm on that terrain board!
I'll take one Dune coffee table please, you smashed it! TIP for small scale modelling: Grout powder makes for a really good ground texture as it's super fine and comes in a bunch of earthy colours you can just throw a wash and highlight on.
From my first impressions, this is a perfect TTT video. The pacing, the humor, the coolness of the project; it all works for me. I think half hour long project videos are the sweet spot. I'm also liking epic scale and smaller scale stuff more and more. Keep up the good work.
You all do such excellent work, thank you for going about with all these different projects. watching your videos has really helped me become better in painting and creating for my tabletop game group
that was a fantastic build love how the LED's on the acrylic made it look like a tactical overlay on some orbital footage gives me some new ideas for my spacehulk build im planning
Boom, what an absolutely phenomenal build. This was my favorite of yours in a long time, maybe ever. More projects of this scope and quality would be very much welcome.
Beautiful board! The lines on the acrylic would pop even more if you traced them with acrylic fluo paints. They dry basically clear, but really pop with light.
This has to be one of the all time greatest reveals in the TH-cam tabletop community! Stunning work! So much care put in, especially with a lot being crafted by hand. Incredible... Just, incredible. You've raised the bar with this one!
These types of games/movies have never really been of any interest to me personally, but seeing how excited and happy this made you while making it was amazing! An incredible end result and a joy to watch the process too. Hats off my man 👍🏻
Great work, just the fact that you enjoyed making the board really shows in the video and make it a delight to watch. Also meaning that if you're happy, then we're happy.
That was a fabulous build! Kudos to you all for making such a beautiful representation of Dune. Thanks to SMG Studios too for giving you all the challenge! Cheers!
I love this board. Also, absolutely in favour of having more detailed videos and more "talky" videos. Sound like a great mixture and a fantastic way to allow you to go more in detail with your project. Thank you for your amazing work.
Love the small scale! I have made multiple 1/3000 scale diorama's. One of these, was 170 x 120 cm. That is a huge one...and more of that size are coming! Love it! Your scale is close to that...Maybe 1/4000...never 1/20.000 (😂 you silly!)
Loved this book when I was a teenager, always wanted to see a map of Arakeen to wargame over. Really impressed by the effort you took making the city sections. The whole thing looks fantastic.
Absolutely stunning, Dave! Quite frankly, I fully expected the buildings to be 3D modeled and printed, so seeing you make them from plasticard was super cool and absolutely nuts!
I'm impressed with how well the edge lit acrylic works! I don't think I've seen that effect done so well, I suppose lighting it from all sides really helps?
Eppiic! love the longform projects. Talking through your process and giving updates on a project is seriously interesting. I'm more interested in things that take time and are a quality project than something that is short form and doesn't have the depth of process. I like seeing the problem solving and intricacies that this project showed. You could say its the creative process that I lean towards.
Y'ALL. This looks amazing!!!! Absolutely stunning work - legitimately a piece of art. Also, I love your more talk-y videos so I'm excited for more of those too ☺
This looked incredibly painstaking to make, but the result was also incredible. Super impressed with your dedication to the project and I love Dune too so this is awesome
I feel inspired to make my first book shelf diorama after watching this. There’s several techniques I’ll be using to put it together. Love love love the plexi lit top.
I carve the basic shape first, scissors work great for thin cork, and then use a mix of spackle(wall filler), sand, white glue, water and paint to blend the shed and give texture to the flat top surface. Saves time over trying to carve and blend a stack of cork with an xacto knife. I also have a container of cork crumbs for scattered rocks.
As a gamer and modeller who have built 1/300 buildings and vehicles for my games absolute respect for your achievement here, also, I am a big fan of the recent movies 😁
For future micro sand you can use a mix of pva, water, acrylic paint and sodium bicarbonate. I used it to do a really tiny SG-1 diorama. From my own experience, you should do some test first because if you do something wrong the sodium bicarbonate will start making bubbles, but if you do it well it has amazing results.
Awesome. It would be cool to see some variation on this idea. Maybe other settings from films and novels with that led overlay info. So good. Oooo what about a display case with led labels??
Dang ! I wish that type of board had been available back in 1979 when Avalon Hill published its own Dune tabletop strategy game. That was a classic ! Beautiful work guys \o/
Heck yeah, what an excellent build and video. A huge congratulations to you, I think this might be the best project I've seen on the channel so far! I'm really appreciating the new video format. I like the laid back mid week vids, for painting, or sometimes while I'm at work, and if they let you do more big projects, then I think that's a double win for me. Also, Dave you looked so happy through the whole process, which was great to see. Previous big projects you've seemed a little stressed or tired (no offence!) so I'm glad to see this format is making things fun for you.
"A process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the process, must join it and flow with it." Also, lots of glue.

well worth the time imo, its terrific work
It's gorgeous!
Well done guys
Love these type of board game build videos
The real worm at the end, little guy having the time of his life dreaming of big.
Did you see the microscopic Paul riding on it?
For any future tiny scale builds. Tile grout is excellent for super small sand! Also, PLEASE do make a board game embedded coffee table!
but with a drawer system to switch out the games.
I was not ready for that actual worm lmao

Thanks it was a huge job but we're proud of it!
That worm in the light though....🪱
Walk without rhythm, you won't attract the worm: Bootsy Collins.
But Bootsy, TTT walks with funk. And the worms love the funk, look at the worm on that terrain board!
yea that was some psych damage
The auto generated captions display June whenever Dave says Dune. I, for one, welcome our June overlords.
Australian accent strikes again
This is one of the best diorama you guys have ever built. Looks absolutely amazing
I'll take one Dune coffee table please, you smashed it!

This is absolutely awesome! I really appreciate that you made the city blocks by hand rather than 3D modelling them; well done!
"The joons of Dune" 😄
You guys killed it, the acrylic overlay looks so perfectly like a hologram display!
Jazzas face when he turned had me crying ngl 😂😂
cork is amazing for terrain, i love it
This came out so well! Love watching how things come together from the flat colours all the way up to those little details
This has to be one of the all time greatest reveals in the TH-cam tabletop community! Stunning work! So much care put in, especially with a lot being crafted by hand. Incredible... Just, incredible. You've raised the bar with this one!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!! The little wormy at the end may have made me yell, I love that so much
This is absolutely awesome! I really gotta make some diorama board game now.
What a cool collaboration. So happy for you guys.
You should do The Cones of Dunshire!
Incredible. The top down view of the final map looks like a satellite image.
These types of games/movies have never really been of any interest to me personally, but seeing how excited and happy this made you while making it was amazing!
An incredible end result and a joy to watch the process too.
Hats off my man 👍🏻
Awesome job!!! We love it
Thanks so much!! It was such an awesome build!
This look absolutely spectacular! Probably my favorite thing you’ve ever built, would Love to see things like this
Great work, just the fact that you enjoyed making the board really shows in the video and make it a delight to watch. Also meaning that if you're happy, then we're happy.
This board is awesome! The holo glass really adds that futuristic sci-fi touch.
That was fantastic! The level of detail is incredible and well worth the wait. I personally, am a big fan of these larger projects.
That was a fabulous build! Kudos to you all for making such a beautiful representation of Dune. Thanks to SMG Studios too for giving you all the challenge! Cheers!
Great work. The strategic map overlay over the build really takes it to the next level. Fantastic !
Lovely work. It’s great to see you guys not having to compromise projects because of time. Your crazy gamers, in the best kind of way. Great work.
I love this board. Also, absolutely in favour of having more detailed videos and more "talky" videos. Sound like a great mixture and a fantastic way to allow you to go more in detail with your project.

Really enjoyed this build! Enjoy that you have the space to do huge projects like this and hope it works out to do more!

This might be the coolest build I've seen yet. Really great use of technology and technique, it just feels right.
This is incredible, possibly your best build in a long time. Also the Leds worked so well!
So happy to see the final results! And the real "sand"worm!
Love it.
Fantastic build guys! It's always inspiring to watch you all at work.
When I saw the first over view I thought it was all 3D printed but you made each one of those? That's mad crazy.
Y'ALL. This looks amazing!!!! Absolutely stunning work - legitimately a piece of art. Also, I love your more talk-y videos so I'm excited for more of those too ☺
This looked incredibly painstaking to make, but the result was also incredible. Super impressed with your dedication to the project and I love Dune too so this is awesome
Great build AND I like the new, long-format video style. Keep it up guys and gals and thanks for sharing.
I love these videos, the first risk board, and now this. I hope I'm not alone in hoping for more of you guys changing games with beautiful redesigns.
This level of scratch building is absolutely insane!!!! I thought all those buildings were 3d printed from the thumbnail, loved this!
I love it when you go into something else than 40k. I hope this video goes well. It is certainly worth watching and kudos on an awesome build.

You should make a board for the original Dune board game.
The red from the cliffs pops a little too much, but overall it really looks awesome.
Epic, I like what you’ve done, the holographic overlay was a good choice.
Projects like this always tickle my brain. Another project to do on the pile
This is one of the coolest projects I’ve ever seen. Well done all around. It kind of reminds me of the old Mighty Empires game from GW.
You all did such an amazing job with this! thank you!
with projects like this coming out I am all for the shift in content! Keep up the great work!
Nice work Team.
Working to such a small scale has got to be challenging.
Great final outcome.
I hope you guys do more of these sorts of projects, this is sick 🙌
This is so freakin awesome! Great job. The LED overlay is *chef's kiss*
Awesome. It would be cool to see some variation on this idea. Maybe other settings from films and novels with that led overlay info. So good.
Oooo what about a display case with led labels??
That's an epic build! Blinging boardgames is great content.
Awesome build! I am a big fan of the more detailed and intense builds... Maybe scythe next!?
Absolutely incredible, breathtaking work.
It looks amazing, I'd love to play on a board like that. Keep up the good work
Amazing work. The level of detail is fantastic!
This looks amazing! You all did such a good job and I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
The cityscape is fantastic, it looks like a legit movie model. Well done, fellas.
That was phenomenal guys. Really enjoyed the video. Thanks.
Amazing build, Ace/Jim would approve of reference!
I find bigger handle knives way more comfortable and less likely to slip as they have so much more weight to them like a tradesmen fold out knife
I absolutely love it when people do stuff like this. I wish I could make one myself and also have the people to play it with 😭
Dang ! I wish that type of board had been available back in 1979 when Avalon Hill published its own Dune tabletop strategy game. That was a classic ! Beautiful work guys \o/
This is gorgeous! Love it.. almost as much as the worm
That build is amazing, possibly your best yet!
Flipping awesome!!!! You all outdid yourselves!!!! Bet that worm had a heck of a time! 🪱
really amazing
these types of builds are awesome and i would love to see some more like it
The reveal with the LED-lit acrylic... WHOA!!
This is going to be a long standing reference pillar for the channel. This is unbelievable, and the results shine for themselves.
Heck yeah, what an excellent build and video. A huge congratulations to you, I think this might be the best project I've seen on the channel so far!

epic build and love the lighting effect.
holy shit! If I were Jazza seeing this for the first time I would've completely freaked out! The build looks insane!
Awesome job everyone! 😊 may your blades chip and shatter!
Dave, awesome video. I love terrain building and Dune! Great job!
finally ive been waiting for something like this
Really enjoyed the build, and it looks so good!
Amazing build, I love everything you guys do!
Wow that was an incredible build, let me know when you start making those coffee tables that sounds like a great idea!
What an effort! Looks fantastic.
This looks amazing guys! Nicely done!
