What pilot figure did you use? I have been repainting Monogram Pather figures for my HM Panthers?

MIKEYT:
Your pilot's "Golden Dragons" helmet is cool. Some time ago, I emailed Hobby Master, via their intermediary, a photo of William Holden's helmet paint scheme, but I figured it was asking too much for them to repaint their standard helmet to the Holden helmet.
My "Golden Dragons" Panther is at my dealer while I think about adding to the order so it can be shipped all at once. I already have the HM Ted Williams Panther.

Nice looking Panther, mikeyt.
The plane,and scale don't really fit in with the rest of my collection.Yet
But a nice model of an important aircraft.

the pilot came from the revell kit and also used the decal sheet to add some more detail

That is the figure I have been using. I am been trying to increase my figure painting abilities especially the facial area. I am not confident enough to try the ram horns.
Here is my real H-4 I use as reference.
It's a real H-4 and was a movie prop from "Men of the fighting lady"

The photo I relayed to Hobby Master: William Holden in THE BRIDGES AT TOKO-RI.
