1- Find an IDE/Floppy cable from an old computer like this one:



2- Peel off one it's channels and remove whatever fibers remaining intact:



3- Get your soldering iron:



4- Find some toothpicks, matches, plastic sticks or similar and drill couple of holes on each of them, then drive fibers which you took outta ide cable thru these holes..

5- Use soldering iron to create tiny little "barbs" over the cables like this:



6- Then fix these spikes via glue otherwise they'll fall off annoying the hell outta you.



7- Voila!! This here be our barbed wire..



Paint as you like, cheers...
