This is done in the "Castle", "Forest", and "Mayship" areas of the "OFFLINE - DOJO - MISSION" mode. The Combo Missions are at the very bottom of each of those areas, noted by the "COMBO - " prefix for the mission names.
For these challenges, I used Sol for the first two (Castle and Forest), and Potemkin for the last one (Mayship) because his is much easier than Sol's Overdrive Combo. Anyone with any fighting game experience should be able to complete the Combo Challenges with ease, but even if you have none, a little bit of practice and mashing (with Potemkin's, anyway) will easily let you complete them.
Edit: Credit to rholliday, they mentioned Ky's combo for the Forest challenge might be easier than Sol. If you're having an issue with the 2nd challenge with Sol, try giving Ky Kiske's combo a shot.
You have to get at least 3 out of 5 attempts during the mission to count as "CLEARED". If you mess up the first 3 combos, reset the mission and try again (or use the last 2 attempt for practice). For Potemkin's Overdrive, it's actually a fairly long duration Overdrive attack, so if you succeed in the first 3 attempt, just walk up and kick the guy on the last 2 attempts to quickly CLEAR the mission.

Having trouble here, Potemkin just keeps belly flopping into the ground or doing a weird little pose. 
I've played around with every available character and I just cannot nail down the last move at all.

Each of the five areas has a Combo Mission as their last mission. You can pick any character for the mission to complete it. It counts as complete when you do it the first time. You can do each one as every character but the achievement is only tracking the first time. Because these require you to complete the combo three out of five times, if you fail three times press 
to pause and select Retry Mission.
Castle Area: Combo - Gatling Combination.
Use Ky Kiske.
Forest Area: Combo - Special Cancel
Use Ky Kiske
Mayship: Combo - Overdrive
Use Axel Low or Potemkin
Wasteland: Combo - Roman Cancel
Use Nagoriyuki
All of these are pretty tough compared to the first three. You have to work on timing. For Nagoriyuki you combo
, , Down, Down/Back, Back+
then Roman Cancel. You will need to wait for the opponent to fall for a second. Right when the slow motion ends you mash , , . It sounds hard but once you see the timing it's pretty easy.
Hell Area: Combo - Wall Break
Use Leo Whitefang
The only trick to him is that you have to hold when doing the Turbulenz. The combo goes , , Down, Down/Forward, Forward+ then Roman Cancel. Right after the cancel you do Down, Down/Back, Back+ and hold . He will do an explosion. If you hold he has his back turned after the explosion. Once the explosion is over you press , , Down, Down/Back, Back+. No need to worry about specific timing like in the Wasteland Combo.
