One of the Magic Spells in our "Bear Yourselves Valiantly" mass combat fantasy, ancients, & medieval rules (currently under development), allows for magic users to place 6 inches of impassable wall on the table within a certain distance of their location. For my evil magic users I had the thought that I could make a neat twisted thorny thicket wall out of part of a loofa scrubber.
Though I plan to use it with 10mm figures, I think it would work equally well with everything from 6mm to 25mm.

That is a cool idea. Thanks.

Add a bit of flocking and a few rocks and trees and you have a Normandy hedgerow.

Really a nice project, Chris.

Now that's a good idea!

Wow! Your paint job really seals the deal on this. It looks fantastic, and it could serve multiple genres, and periods. It could also represent a "Wall of Thorns" spell, from AD&D/BattleSystem games. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

Now just how cool is that? Thanks!

Damn! I may used this to create hedgerows for my ECW and WW II games in 28mm. Add some flocking,twigs, AC filter material or steel wool and you would have something very dynamic. Off to the department store bath section chaps.

Very cool, thanks for the idea.

Thanks for the kind remarks!
Yes, it would make the basis for a great Normandy style hedgerow.
