All,
You've seen my Marines, so let me introduce you to their primary antagonists, the Imperial Japanese Army. I bought the Warlord Games' Island Assault starter set, and then another box of their plastic Japanese infantry. The metal figures from the starter set are nicely done, as are the extra scenery items, and the plastic infantry are a snap to slap together and paint up. As is my usual, I painted them up using Contrast paints; probably pretty boring for you to look at, but they were quick and easy to paint up and look fine on the tabletop (at least to my eye).
Banzai!!!
The dreaded Type 92 7.7mm machine gun.
A 70mm Type 92 battalion gun.
A 20mm Type 98 anti-aircraft gun.
A pair of Type 96 light machine guns.

Well, there you go, my IJA, ready to do battle. I also have a Special Naval Landing Force platoon, but they're not painted, and not sure when they'll get painted as I'm finally to my painting break, time to play some games!
V/R,
Jack
