For the Glory of the Empire and the Sacred Emperor!

With a light tank for support, a squad of Imperial Japanese soldiers charge their enemy.

Following the flag is a long standing tradition for the soldiers of Nippon.

This one is emblazoned with patriotic sayings to further encourage the troops. 

From North Chia to India to the islands of the South Pacific, this scene was duplicated

countless times in the name of the Empire and the god Emperor.

The soldiers are plastic pieces from Warlord Games that I painted this week. The light tank is actually a 20mm scale metal Corgi German MK IV F1 that I painted in 2016, in a Japanese color scheme to substitute for a Chi Ha tank.
