The Definitive Period Field and Village Boundary
The Renedra Wattle Fencing set introduces an authentic, woven-branch perimeter system directly to your gaming boards, showcasing the exceptional standard of UK-engineered injection-molded plastic. This 1/56 (28mm) scale kit serves as a highly versatile, system-agnostic terrain asset optimized for agrarian landscapes, livestock enclosures, and domestic boundaries. It acts as a perfect visual anchor for Ancient and Medieval eras—ranging from Iron Age settlements and Viking homesteads to feudal villages—while integrating beautifully beside your Perry Miniatures rural layouts or fantasy skirmish backdrops.
Molded in premium gray hard plastic, the kit captures the intricately intertwined texture of traditional hazel or willow wattle hurdles. Unlike brittle resin or flat, laser-cut wood alternatives, these high-impact polystyrene sprues deliver exceptional structural integrity and take paint brilliantly. Assembling effortlessly with standard liquid plastic cement for an unbreakable solvent-weld, this comprehensive set provides a massive linear footprint, allowing wargamers to quickly delineate defensive lines or field barriers across historical and fantasy rule sets like Saga, Barons' War, Infamy, Infamy!, and Warhammer: The Old World.

Tips: Wattle fences are an absolute joy to paint using fast dry-brushing techniques. Begin by priming the assembled sections in a solid dark brown or near-black tone. Follow up with a heavy dry-brush of medium earth brown, and apply a final light pass of a gray-tan color over the high ridges to simulate aged, sun-bleached wicker. To add an extra layer of tabletop realism, glue small patches of static flock and vibrant Gamers Grass tufts along the base of the stakes to mimic wild, overgrown field margins.
