A few close ups of my cornfields made from plastic stalks with removable centre section for placing a regiment of infantry. Mine are made for my 'Battle Cry' hex based game but you could create a nice conventional large field from these. I spent hours trying various methods of making convincing looking corn/maize fields in 15mm (or 13.5mm Epic scale in my case) before a search for model railway cornstalks threw up this product (link below). Blocks Line of Sight and a minus 1 dice for soft cover in my game. Michigan boys of the Iron Brigade lurking in the fields!

Nice! I got a similar set from a model train manufacturer. Also, while doing research for cornfields, I discovered the "3 sisters" older style of growing corn that was still prevalent in the South. I got the stalks from Spira miniatures and they look great: link link Since they print, you can get any scale to match your stuff. |

Lee, I saw these on your blog a couple months back, and loved the stuff – so glad you remembered the source link for them now. ;) Seriously, great look and nice adaptation for your Battle Cry derived gamin'! |
