I think it looks pretty good. It's a nice variation from the original.

This is fantastic! Overall: Amazing. A closer look: love the variation. Detal-wise: that shading you've done in the corners! Really great.

I had printed off some of these as additions to modular tiles, but seeing them all work together here on the board is wonderful.

good job, Maike05!

Wow! Very nice! I can honestly say this is one of the best custom board I've ever seen.
The reason is the coherency and art-style. It IS AHQ, just pieced together to one big board.

I DO think it's a shame you had to cut up the magic room. You should have put it in the middle room.
Or just change the layout to just make it fill out two rooms - but I understand why you would be hesitant to do that.

edit: Maybe I'm not that fond of the rooms that have "L" shaped patterns on the floor...
Maybe actually cut out single tiles and arrange them in a more "natural" pattern?

Thanks for the comment guys :) now that i've a night sleep over it, it lack something very important ! blood splatters ! Not much of cours, but i'll add them in some corners for variation.

What could be nice as well would tbe to recreate all original tiles at advanced heroquest format but that is another story :D

Would either of you consider posting your boards?

I know there's a few people here who've printed and made their own boards. I tried it once, for me it wasn't worth the effort - but I'm not very crafty.

I really cannot recommend a vinyl board enough. I've become very fond of them. Easy to store and take care of. They're not bargains to print, but they are reasonable, especially if you have several print since you can save on shipping.

Me too!
Going to re-size it to 25mm squares and print it as the "Maze" level for AHQ.
