Happy Friends of the Italian Army

A random introduction of Italian tanks that I drew earlier.


L3

Small and very cute.
Lightly clothed

Since he is a soft-hearted Italian, sometimes he tries to be tactful and asks ‘Should I help with something?’, but is only told, ‘just hang around somewhere out there’.

He tries to give M13/40 advice on the meaning of life but he has no idea that he’s having weird faces made at him behind his back.

M11/39

Has main guns in weird places and is the big brother of M13/40. His defense is weak and he is not the smartest either.

When it’s time to sleep he always asks himself “I’m okay, right?” but it’s because he’s asking that he can’t sleep and he’s always gloomy.
Since he’s not alright, he can’t be comforted either.

M13/40

The hard-working younger brother of M11/39.
He feels a lot of stress to make up for the things his older brother can’t handle.
He gets told things like “you better do your very best,” and the pressure of it seems like it might crush him.

Has a sandbag as well as jerrycans and they add to his stress in a physical way. Soooooo heavyyyyyyy.

M13/40 The Great

His older brothers were so useless that M13/40 went off on his own and betrayed them all by defecting to the Australian army. When it came to the Australian army, their level of expectations was more like “well, do your best,” and he found that encouraging.

“I want to keep on fighting and end up at least on the second place and make a name for myself!” Those dreams push him further.

P40

The late-coming honour student.
Italy tried really hard and created this amazing tank. It’s so good that it can keep up with the members of other countries and in some points wins over all others.
But since it was created so late, most of them ended up in the German army.

I’ve been drawing them quietly for a long time and I ended up having quite a few designs lying around.
What’s so weird is that there are TOO MANY OLD MEN!

Probably since P40 is the youngest, these are around 27.
M11/39 and M13/40 are under 30.

The event where you can get chocolate from Mr.Kousaka sure sounds nice.

WW2 Valentine’s Day cards.
It looks like some mischievousness wasn’t completely forgotten even in difficult times.
