There is nothing wrong with concrete backer board. I prefer
Hardi-backer myself. Have you worked with it? Tough to cut
and screw, and comes in funky sizes. I did my walk-in shower
with the 3x5 Hardi-backer and it was a lot of work. The seams
also need to be taped. For the exterior, wire lath and conventional
stucco would be easier, IMO.
