How can i make a nice, standard green board?

You know, mainly flat with a hill here/ rock patch there?

I know there are Tutorials on making terrain all over the GW site which i will do--but how do i go about making a full on board.

See this link first--http://www.heresy-online.net/viewtopic.php?t=2267

Just get either a wooden board and staple the roll of flocked terrain from GW or get pva and sprinkle your own flock onto the board. The way GW has their 4x4 board is they staple a roll of paper/whatever it is to the board and play on it.

Sounds easy but it's effective. The only bad thing is the rolls are expensive

Roll of flocked terrain :?:

That sounds cool, is there a link you know of, blood?

 

[Bloodhound]

umm. ill try to find it on the GW store. one minute....

 

[Anphicar]

I think i saw it yesterday when i bought some paints, blood.

How would you cover up the staples? Some of my own static grass?
You think it would be easy to staple it so it is flat?

Has it been a week, yet , tor?

EDIT:
Here it is!

Yeah, probably some of your own flock.
Maybe even you could do what GW did ages ago. Loads of people were leaning on the tablesa dn to prevent that the staff glued some of their gravel onto the edges of the boards so people wouldn't lean on it cuase it would hurt. It worked. Until it gradually got scraped off. Lol.

 

[torealis]

lol, shut up, i'll show you how to make something a bit more robust than all that crap

my germans leave today, so i'll start gathering material.

Right.

....?

:lol:

 

[Catch_22]

The best material to use for a good overall board is sheets of polystyrene insulation foam, 1" thick, glued to a hardboard base. Polystyrene sheets can be cut into quarters or left as large sheets. It has the ability to be stressed and beaten in many ways for terrain effects. It can be cut and seperated for deeper river/creek areas. If you want shallow lower areas of terrain, just take a hairdryer and melt the surface. Any hill effects canbe easily made and glued to the main surface before flocking. Flocking easily glues to it. Best of all, its easy to find (local building supply store) and it's light for easy transport.
