Pilot Update

Began the main blocking out for the flight suit....

Despite having some nice hi rez pics from my own 'shoot' I still need the extra ref. Found some nice Tuskegee Pilot pics with some close ups. Some may be of use for Bullet....

more update on the Pilot, this will get duplicate around the collar area for the inside collars too, then reshaped, so one for the leather pilot jacket the other for the 'boiler suit'

cheers

Thanks dave

No I'll be just doing what you see. There's enough to do already without weighing it down with the body too especially when I rig it later on down the line

cheers for now

I will be doing the same if I ever get there. No point in having unused geo in there eh Jay?

no mate, though only if you do a cloth sim, but neither of us are gonna be doing that for this stuff.

Ive modified my jacket on the model now to a proper pilot jacket. I'll zip up the refs for you mate and mail you a link to download them later on
