IDF
Some Evil Zionists to fight against the brave liberators. Or is that some brave liberators to fight against the evil oppressors?? I lost the tracks to this guy so I used some leftovers and sunk the wheels into a mixture of PVA & sand.
Syrian Commandos
A few Syrian commandos. The first 2 pics are combat miniatures, from Stonewall and the last is a paint conversion of an Orion modern Russian. I look forward to getting these guys in a jam...

Snake Eater
This guy is an old Platoon 20 Green Beret. While painting him up he started to resemble one of my favourite game characters. So I went the whole hog and painted him up as Big Boss from MGS3 Snake Eater. I'm quite proud of him, now all I need are some genome soldiers or a renegade Russian battalion...

Reports say that Marxist Islamist rebels are holding out in the village and planning to launch an attack on food aid convoys destined for Libasamal in the North. The government forces consist of 1 squad of regular government troops deployed in a Saracen APC, with a regular crew. Supporting the main unit are 2, 4 man, squads of elite mercenaries, ex-SAS and FFL etc riding in SUVs. The exact size of the rebel force is unknown. Due to the rushed nature of this operation, no artillery or air support was made available. The only off table support being a government O-1 birddog. The Government forces leapfrog through the long grass to the right of the main road, enemy positions can be seen lining the hillside...
