The Scene - sci fi mines

The Scene does these nifty little mines, could be big mines in 15 mm or little mines in larger scales.. I'm thinking about putting some of them on a base to make a minefield  counter, perhaps thinking of mines as a type of very difficult terrain. A few I might keep as stowage. In my games, units are represented by blinds until spotted, so I'd like to try using static blinds to represent minefields, finally revealed when someone makes contact.
