Here is two weapon teams for my Soviet Union force, I glued all the miniatures on the base before painting, that wasn't so smart. I had problems reaching some areas on the miniatures, specially on the MMG teama gunner. So some parts that's facing towards the support weapon are less detailed then the rest of the miniatures. Next time I paint a support weapon team I will not glue every thing to the base at once, I will paint things separately and when finished I will glue them in place, sometimes I really feel like a noob at this.
I wanted the greatcoat to be another colour then the regular uniform and when I looked at Osprey pictures the great coats seemed to be brownish, so that I went with that.
