About the Project
I'm going to steal Warren's idea here and do a board for legions imperialis. I am going to start with some 3D printed tiles and then add some buildings from GW.

This isn't nearly the complete set of tilesThese tiles are from Terraforma Epicminium on Dragon’s Rest

There are 28 different tile designs and there are also half tiles cut on the diagonal so you can change the orientation of the roads. I wanted a 5×4 board out of these so as the tiles are 6 inches square I was going to need at least 80. I have printed 3 of each design and enough half tiles to edge the board, I may need some more of different designs to make the board make sense but for now that.
Once the printing was done that was the easy bit not I need to paint them. After putting this off for quite a while I have finally settled on a colour scheme for the tiles.
The painted tiles in the above are from an earlier attempt at this when I printed half a dozen tiles and painted them using GW’s paints. It quickly become apparent that once I had printed off all the tiles it was going to take a lot of paint to cover them.
So I have settled on a sandstone type finish for the foundations and dark blue for the road.
