F-86 Realistic Pilot Skin ?

[Basco1]

Ok,is there a kindly skinner out there that can give us a realistic 1950's Korean War F-86 Pilot skin,I'm sure someone with some talent can better the default one we have at present,so I'm going to start us off with a few pic references.

 

Studying pictures on the web they mainly all have a style of helmet that is mainly white and has like a tan trim as a base,on top of this base,we then see the first personal or custom paint jobs of helmets for pilots emerging.

 

The first G suits appear to come in either olive green or Navy blue colours,so maybe we could have alternative skins to represent the choices,but the classic olive green with a plain white helmet would be a marvelous start to better that boring default one.I think my first picture shown is the classic look.

 

A very critical fault with our default pilot is that he is not wearing an oxygen mask,these aircraft were reaching altitudes of just under 50,000 ft !,my second picture shows the standard green coloured oxygen mask of the period.

 

Anyway as we move closer to skins coming along I thought it would be great to have a more realistic pilot to go with them,what do you think?

 

BTW if you have better pictures than mine,please add to aid our skinners,thanks :smilewink:

I guess we're going nowhere without the F-86 template,presumably this includes the pilot textures somewhere,yes?........excuse my complete ignorance on the subject of skinning :doh:
