Tankluver,
My approach has always been to paint the figures as if I were dressing them. I start with the flesh areas, then each layer of clothing from the inside out (t-shirts first, followed by shirts and pants, ending with outer jackets/coats), and I finish with the boots (and gloves if worn) and outer details like medals or insignia. This process has worked well for me over the years. Good luck with your figures.
