Malifaux graveyard board

[JMGraham]

Thanks to tons of inspiration from LAF, I wrapped up a graveyard board for Malifaux that I had been working on for a while. It uses a Garden of Morr (wall, crypts, and statue), a Citadel Wood (love those creepy and cartoony trees!), and a bunch of Renedra gravestones. The ruins were designed by a friend of mine in a 3d modeling program. Then he had masters printed and made a mold from them. I cast these in resin from his molds with some resin left over from another project.

In practice, it's a fun, thematic board for Malifaux. The oodles of cover make for a very dynamic cover - lots of movement while keeping protected.

Very nice!

Can we see some pictures with Malifaux models on it s we can see how they scale up against the GW & Renedra pieces?

[JMGraham]

This is an older picture when it was still a work in progress, but here's a Reaper mini and some Mantic zombies lined up. Size-wize the GW pieces are perfect, The Renedra gravestones are a bot on the largish size, but they work out well as a whole, I think.

FWIW, the set-up was a homage to my Pathfinder character, who is working through the Carrion Crown adventure path. I was convinced he would die the next session, so wanted to immortalize him clearing out the graveyard surrounding the old haunted Harrowstone prison. Thankfully, he survived! Carrion Crown is a wonderful set of horror-themed adventures for Pathfinder. Good stuff!

What a great-looking table! I've seen a lot of graveyard terrain pieces, but never an entire graveyard table before. Looks sweet. And very playable too, with all that cover. Excellent.

I love the way you use the Garden of Morr fence pieces as one continuous line bisecting the entire table, rather than as an enclosure. I might definitely be lifting that idea some time soon...

Very nice, the night shots look particularly good. 

Perhaps some foliage, lichens maybe to give it that overgrown feel in places?

The whole table has a great style to it, it looks like a panel from a comic book or perhaps a computer game setting, very graphical in the art sense. I think it's great.

Figures look rather tasty too

 Great looking board and the miniatures are cool too.How many set's of Rendra Graves did you use?

[Marine0846]

Love the board.
Well painted, many ideas we can all steal.
I really like how everything blends so well together.

[JMGraham]

Thanks for the kind words, all!

I think I bought 3 of the Renedra gravestone sets, and ended up using nearly every one of them for the board. It is such a fantastic sprue, I really hope they produce more like it. I think the gravestones go a long way to help dilute the skull-to-terrain ration that would otherwise be sky-high due to the Garden of Morr.

Very nice. Looks like a very playable table. Plenty of room to move as well as plenty of terrain for cover.

Cheers

Both playable and beautiful; very nice work.
