Lebanon 1982 - IDF (Pt1)

I bought some of Peter Pigs Israeli and PLO figures a while ago and they have spent a long time in the unpainted box.  During a visit by a war gaming buddy we ended up talking about small scale combat. I already have a large US v Insurgent type set up, but fancied something a little different. As a result these have moved up the queue somewhat, and some new purchases added.

Partially completed vehicles.

My Middle East terrain also received a refresh. Not just for this project but for a 1880s Northwest Frontier game
