About product

An Israeli tanker of 1973 in 1:35

A separate resin casting from the brand Royal Model will complete a model of an Israeli armored vehicle with a single figure. The figure is modeled for a turret hatch, so it brings a finished model to life without your having to build a whole diorama for it.

October 1973

On 6 October 1973 Egyptian and Syrian formations attacked simultaneously in Sinai and on the Golan Heights. Israeli battalions went into the counterattack with Shot vehicles, that is rebuilt Centurions, and with American types of the Magach series. The men wore fireproof coveralls and a helmet with built-in headphones and a throat microphone. It is this silhouette that sets an Israeli tanker apart from his European counterparts at a glance.

Painting recommendations

After washing the part and removing the casting block, seat the figure dry in the hatch: the turret opening fits differently on every kit, and sanding the mating surface is easier before painting than after it. The coveralls should come out a pale sandy shade with a barely noticeable green hint, not olive. Fine-tune the dust with a light pigment on the boots and the elbows, and bring the belt and the pouches to life with a dark glaze.

When to reach for this one

  • with models of Israeli hardware from the 1970s
  • when a vehicle has an empty turret and looks lifeless
  • for a modeler who wants one figure rather than a whole crew
  • for smaller display-case scenes from a desert battlefield

The figure is supplied unpainted, without paints and glue.

FAQ

It is a separate figure intended to fill one hatch. If you want to man a whole vehicle, look for a multi-figure version.

Israeli hardware of the 1970s, that is above all the Shot types and the vehicles of the Magach series in 1:35 scale.

A sandy pale shade with a very light green hint. A markedly olive tone does not fit this era.

Yes. Lukewarm soapy water removes the remains of mold release agent, otherwise the paint will not hold on the surface.
