Really didn't know where to post my screens from now on so I thought I'd take the liberty of starting my own topic. Basically as the title says, I'll be posting screenshots of my work for the mod here as well as progress reports of the maps currently in the works. With every scene/map that I create I'll post a small history of the battle or specific scene as well as some links of where I draw my insperation from.
So without further adieu....

The Peach Orchard, 2nd Day of Gettysburg - FINISHED
History
On the morning of July 2, Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles was assigned a position near Little Round Top. That afternoon - without orders - he advanced his 10,000-man Union Third Corps, part of it taking position on this high ground around John Sherfy's peach orchard. Sickles believed it was a stronger position. Mostly due to the fact that he thought it was higher ground from where he could see the Confederate positions and fire artillery.
At the Peach Orchard, Sickles' mile-long line formed a sharp angle, or salient. About 5:30 p.m., following a hot artillery duel, Confederate infantry led by Brig. Gen. J.B. Kershaw attacked the Peach Orchard by way of the Rose Farm but were shredded by rapid rounds of Union canister.
About 6:00 p.m., Confederate infantry of Barksdale's and Wofford's Brigades struck the Peach Orchard from the west, "Shrieking like Indians," the Rebels drove the Union defenders back toward Cemetery Ridge. Sickles' salient was crushed.

Battle of Wilson's Creek - CURRENT PROJECT
History
August 10, 1861
Brig. Gen. Nathaniel Lyon’s Army of the West was camped at Springfield, Missouri, with Confederate troops under the commands of Brig. Gen. Ben McCulloch approaching. On August 9, both sides formulated plans to attack the other. About 5:00 am on the 10th, Lyon, in two columns commanded by himself and Col. Franz Sigel, attacked the Confederates on Wilson’s Creek about 12 miles southwest of Springfield. Rebel cavalry received the first blow and fell back away from Bloody Hill. Confederate forces soon rushed up and stabilized their positions. The Confederates attacked the Union forces three times that day but failed to break through the Union line. Lyon was killed during the battle and Maj. Samuel D. Sturgis replaced him. Meanwhile, the Confederates had routed Sigel’s column, south of Skegg’s Branch. Following the third Confederate attack, which ended at 11:00 am, the Confederates withdrew. Sturgis realized, however, that his men were exhausted and his ammunition was low, so he ordered a retreat to Springfield. The Confederates were too disorganized and ill-equipped to pursue. This Confederate victory buoyed southern sympathizers in Missouri and served as a springboard for a bold thrust north that carried Price and his Missouri State Guard as far as Lexington. In late October, a rump convention, convened by Governor Claiborne Fox Jackson, met in Neosho and passed an ordinance of secession. Wilson’s Creek, the most significant 1861 battle in Missouri, gave the Confederates control of southwestern Missouri.

This first screen shows most of the battlefield itself, pointing "west" from the Peach Orchard itself. Historically speaking the Confederates under Barksdale marched across the fields towards the Union line here at Emmitsburg Rd which portrayed here going left(South) to right(North). In the foreground along the road, on the left is the Wentz House. To the right of that is the famous Peach Orchard owned by the Sherfy's, their barn is portrayed on the opposite side of the road, along with their house to the right. In the background you can see the Warfield orchard on the left. In the center where the forest is, that where the Confederate starting position will be. Finally on the right you can barely see the Staub orchard.
This view is taken above the Confederate starting position. In the background you can see the Sherfy farm in the center along with the Wentz house to the right of it. In the foreground however, on the left is the Staub orchard and the right is the Warfield orchard. You can't really see them yet but there are 4 different wheat fields on this map. There was corn historically as well but sadly no corn models. 
Here we see the Warfield farm up close pointing "north-east" towards the Sherfy farm. A little history lesson about the Warfields, they were one of three African-American families that lived in Gettysburg. Their story is special, because not only were they free but they owned land as well. It is noted that Lieutenant General James Longstreet posted his tent near the Warfield house and may have used it as a headquarters.
This is a view of the Staub orchard. Not much is known about the Staubs and their farm/orchard. You can see one of the wheat fields up close here that runs across the center of the map.
These next few screens show off the map at an "eye level" view of the map from the center. Above each screen will be a direction given.
East - Towards the Sherfy Farm
South - Warfield house visible in tree line to the right.
West - Towards the Confederate starting position. Staub farmhouse viewable through the wheat field on the right.
North - One of the more boring parts of the map. I may actually add a cropse of trees around the fence line in the center. Some trees where represented on a map. More or less just to break up the monotonous feeling.

What you see here is a view of the whole map. Right now we're above the confederate starting position. Directly oposite on the far corner is the Union starting position. The center forest on the oposite bank is where the Bloody Hill is located.
Now above Union starting position. Bloody Hill is located on our right. The open field on the far left, oposite side of the creek, is the location of Ray's Cornfield.
This screen shows us above Wilson's Creek pointing "North". The Bloody Hill is on our left.
We're now on top of the Bloody Hill on a plateau feature called the "Bald Knob." On the oposite side of the creek on the right is the Confederate spawn.
These next screenshots feature the thick woods of the Bloody Hill.
This screen shows the open field where Ray's Cornfield will be placed. In the foreground however is the future spot of the Gibson Mill which will be placed alongside of the creek.
Nice little shot taken from Ray's cornfield pointing towards the Bloody Hill.
Please do note that there's still alot of work to be done. I.E. roads, buildings, more fauna
