6DW: First of the Israelis
/Now that the UAR/Egyptian forces are just about done for the 6DW, it is time to start on their opponents: the Israelis.
I've actually painted six Israeli tanks of various types, but haven't been able to get the decals needed to finish them off, so the honour of being the first Israeli unit finished goes to the first platoon of a mechanised infantry company:
These are Battlefront figures, undercoated in a light desert colour, washed with a dark brown ink, and then highlighted with various shades of flesh and greens. It's an effect that looks a bit rough and ready up close, but works really well on the tabletop and in AAR photographs.
Only another two platoons, the weapons platoon, and all the support weapons to go!
