IDF paratroopers clearing a narrow alley in the Balata refugee camp near the city's notorious Kasbah, 2002.
Streetfighting is especially terrifying in alleys such as this for even though the Palestinians don't train nearly as hard and can't stand up to the Paratroopers in a straight fire fight, they are extremely good at laying explosives and hiding until the paras are right on top of them. Based on a photo. I think the original version is one of my best works. The colours on the scan don't look quite right though. I usually get used to it after a few days. :] Using pastel chalk pencils *TheSpyWhoLuvedMe gave me for Christmas. :] |

I think if the americans had applied the operation manual book from the IDF then they may not be in the deep freacking hell they are now. Israelis have way much more experience on this kind of Battlefield (I know they haven't got much succes in destroying the resistance groups but still...).
Nice work there man! I almost thought it was a photo.

Fella on the left is better than good.
Colors are pretty candy. Too candy for my eye, but I prefer darker shades of black and blue anyway. That's to say that while my color preference might not go with this picture, the coloring also looks unrealistic.
Also, in during "We'll see how fearless he really is, he's about to see a Ghost."

You have to give the Palestinians some credit for fighting though. If I was in their ranks and saw paratroopers coming down, I'd be in Spain before they touched down. : D Anything's better than getting wasted by some of the best troops the enemy's got.
