and this is a little trench part im making right now, ill have more made quite soon. they wont look quite like this because i need some straight parts and maybe something a little bit bigger ;)

Very nice techinque! I like the 'crudeness' of the bottom trench. I would suggest ripping apart sheets of spare plastic to look like shrapnel. If you want barbed wire this is what I recommend, it's very cheap and effective. What I do is wrap it around a pencil (or toothpick depending on size) to create a coil effect.

They also have premade barbed wire but I'm not a fan of premade terrain.

Great to see such inspirational terrain being produced for WWII gaming - it's my two favourite things rolled into one topic!

Awesome dude! your trench is very similar to mine! I like that you went for the dusty floorboard. I went for the muddy watery floorboard (more WW1 like) What company are those polish troops?
