This is a great set. I did a review of it here on Armorama. I look forward to seeing your paintjob James.

James I don't know if this will be of any help to you. A lot of what I have been reading to date indicates that Russian uniform during WW2 varied greatly in colour. from tan brown to green, and in some cases these changes were seen in the same uniform. At the very least this will allow you some freedom in colour choice.
