@Lunarwolf:

how many infantry sculpts are u willing to do

2-4 different sculpts, possibly and not set.

so do you mean that they would be individual pieces with  diffident colors?

If you’re going for Amerika Bombers, why not also consider the HE277, JU-390 (ooo, six engined), or the TA-400.  Also, the HE-274 would be appropriate.

I think just the one should do.  A Marine with a flamethrower would be a good addition to this set, but that would be a more specialized piece and you wouldn’t need as many of those as you do regular infantry.

Spray on primer? I have painted thousands of minature warships,tanks, infantry :-o :-o and planes over the years and I have never realized I needed to put a primer base on them.  I have always washed them and after they dried painted them in the chosen patterns. So if you are suggesting primer what do you use since even on my 1-700 scale Warship collection I never used a primer.  Maybe it was written to do so but I can’t read Japanese, no instructions in English.

tank #2 = IS-2….naaa release to late in the war to get a real impact.

I don’t know where on earth you guys are getting this: it’s simply not true!  (Are you guys still confusing the IS-2 with the IS-3?)  The KV series was off of the battlefied for the second half of the war, for the most part, and replaced by the IS-2!  More IS-2’s were produced than either KV-1 or KV-2’s (or stop-gap measures such as the KV-85 for that matter) and the Soviet counter-offensive that really won the war on Germany was spearheaded by twice as many IS-2’s as Germany ever produced Tigers!
