The 4 standing figures had various leg swaps to make them fit , the 2 seated figures used upper torsos from the FJ set and legs from the seated German set ( short boots ) , I used the legs with the jack boots for my seated Russians  . The kneeling MG team is not glued on so can be used on the table . I used individual arms and weapon arm pairs  from 5 or 6 different  Warlord  German sets to get the look I wanted , so a lot of trial and error , but I think it turned out fine .

Looking very good.
Are they permanently attached?

The 4 standing and 2 seated are glued on . The 3 kneeling figures are removable .  I figured I had to do something with the extra JP hull from the Rubicon kit

Getting tired of waiting for Rubicon's Lee/Grant and other tanks mentioned over the years so I decided to check out a few Resin company's products .  The SU-76 comes with 2 man crew , but I used other figures and added the stowage

Really like the T-70 since I built some PSC models for a friend . I have 3 in 1/48 scale plastic  to build  from a Czech company , plus 4 resin versions in 1/56 from 3 different companies . This one has separate turret and driver hatches for those of us who like that sort of thing


Last but not least a plastic M3 Lee , I decided to make a later model so removed side door hinges and details to represent the welded door version . Also added the longer M4 gun , and armored ventilator covers on hull and turret roof .
