Conflicts and unrest between Israel and her Arab neighbors represent one of the most important keys to understand the geopolitics of much of the last century. It is not surprising that the piqued interest level among many modelers for Israeli armour has been permanently ensconced in the limelight for decades.
The huge variety of armoured vehicles used by the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) – from Israel's independence in 1948 to the present – will be analysed by the renowned military historians Daniele Guglielmi and Mario Pieri including an excellent first-hand reflective introduction accompanied by numerous colour photographs showing the wide variety of Israeli armour used throughout history.
The modelling section features five of the best modelers in the world including Mig Jiménez, Lucas Zaromitidis, Michal Dostál, Rick Lawler, and Allon Kira. Each will show you how to paint and weather IDF armor with the different colors of camouflage sported by Israeli vehicles throughout the young country´s history while using a multitude of different painting techniques and effects.
If you wish to increase your knowledge and model collection with examples of IDF armour and it’s dynamic evolution over the past 70 years, you simply must own this book.
