Tunnies Terrain Barb Wire

I have been asked by a customer to post some pictures of my range of barb wire. Equally suitable for 20mm and 28mm figures these highly detailed modular scenic items are available by contacting me through this blog or my facebook page.



The range is available in temperate, (above), and desert. Each of these has five different pieces which are modular.

The sizes of each are:       Long straight length...........18cm x 6cm.........£9.00
                                          Medium straight length......12cm x 6cm.........£7.00
                                          Short straight length.......... 6cm x 6cm..........£5.00
                                          90 degree corner................6cm x 6cm..........£5.00
                                          45 degree angle.................12cm x 6cm........£7.00



Looking from a lower level the Warlord Games figure is glued to his own plastic circular base and the barb wire is fixed to a 4mm thick base of plywood.



Here is a closer view of the 90 degree corner showing the fine detail.



Lastly the 45 degree corner. Barb wire did not usually surround a whole minefield when it denoted its edge, when facing the enemy. The intention was to protect your own troop from entering the minefield but not tell the enemy where the field began.



Here is the desert part of the range which are the same size and price.




Again they are the same height. The upright support posts are malleable and can repositioned if bent out of shape. This stops wargamers getting impaled on them!



Both temperate and desert ranges are painted in colours straight from the pot. This avoids the possibility of a variation in colouring.

  1. Lovely pieces there, Steve. I'm all for avoiding nasty sharp surprises from the scenery. I get enough of those from my dice rolls!

  2. Thank you AJ. When getting pinged by a piece of wire, while making these I did think of Peter Gilders sharp pikes and swords. Not that I ever experienced them myself.

  3. I have. Unlike everything else at Peter's place that was an experience to be missed.
