Hi
I'm building a Russian vehicle for the first time. Actually, it's ICM's Studebaker US6 truck in Russian service. I'm using the Miniart driver and I'm looking for pics of uniform colours that would be appropriate for my driver. I'd appreciate if anyone could help my with colour images or references they'd like to share. Also, where these trucks usually left in the OD paint they were delivered in or were they usually repainted?
Thanks in advance;
Bob

There are plenty of references for Soviet uniforms on the net.
Here's a link to some repro uniforms:

Lend lease vehicles in Russian service defeinitely kept their original paint, as evidenced by the fact that they also kept their original markings!
US Olive Drab (in one of many forms) it is!
