Welcome to the Cheyl-Shiryon site

Cheyl Shiryon is a personal site derived from my hobby of scale armor modeling. Primarily armor of the IDF (Israel Defence Force) from which the site's name is derived. Cheyl Shiryon in Hebrew (שריון_חיל) is the name for the parent group responsible for armor in the IDF, translated it means Armoured Corps. Though IDF armor and IDF history are primary interests of mine I also build armor of U.S. and other nationalities as well as ship, aircraft and figure subjects that interest me.

A second hobby of mine is photography which I hope to display on this site as well. Most of my photography revolves around military subjects. I post military related photos on my two Webshots pages. the links to which are below and on the current website's main page. Formally I maintained an IDF armor site and forum at http://www.idf_armour_group.org . My lack of time and over site led to its demise. I will be bringing over an archived version of the forum as well as much of the data found on the IDF fpoup site. The new forum will be primarily used as a method of communication for material on this site and secondly as a searchable reference of postings from the old forum.

If you are looking for an IDF Forum for either armour modelling or just for general interest in the IDF I reccomend Adam O'Brien's forum at http://idf-in-scale.com/forum/phpBB3. You will find all the regulars from the IDF Armour group there.
