Heres some photos I've taken today of most of my WIPs for my big WIP which is a 6x4 flames of war board based on the "dog green" area of Omaha beach on D-Day. and Librarian Tigurus(sp?) which I painted about two months ago.

In there is a 15mm Normandy church thats been captured by germans. I might give it a light coat of grey with my airbrush but I'll have to peel of that little german propaganda poster and mask up the boarded windows. The rooves can come off and it can fit 4 medium and 2 small Flames of War bases inside.The steeple comes off too and can fit one small base.
A 15mm barbed wire entanglement modled by my fabulously half painted german rifleman. A big clap for him . Yes I know, you might be thinking: "Man that things massive!" But yes they're were quite big.
The 15mm barbed wire was has thin wire wrapped around thicker wire and looks quite good. The long section of barbed wire took only 3 minutes to make from scratch.
All you need is:
5 amp fuse wire
0.45mm wire
hot glue gun stick
thin dowel
masking tape
a bench vise
and lastly, the all important.... Electric Drill!
(I'm sure your all smart enough to figure out what to do with it all. It's not as complicated as you think . Although end up winding the wire round my finger at high speed and damn that was not pleasent. even in 15mm scale it still hurts.)
(Sorry about the sorry excuse for photography ,but what do you expect when taken with the built-in camera on my phone . I took the ones of Tigurus outside and theyre a bit better.)
