Luftwaffe / RAF gloves owners

[Greg Gale]

Another strange request if I may:

Anyone who owns a pair of Luftwaffe or RAF gloves, could you please take a picture for me as you're giving a thumbs up from the point of view of your eyes, against a contrasting background? I'd like to use it in a video game, like I set up my A-10 gloves to give a thumbs up while flying a Thunderbolt.
Many thanks in advance!

Still at work, can send you a pic with fur lined ww2 Luftwaffe gloves this evening. Same as Günther Rall's gloves

Thanks Burt,
Sorry for disappointing you but this are originals, I've never discovered a company that does reproductions of this, but there's a guy in Crete who makes repros of the later wired suede Luftwaffe gloves which are really nice

Great gloves !
I have a thought for Greg who will have to cutout the fur on photoshop...

@Greg Gale, is this an image that will be added as a layer on the simulator ? How do you plan to achieve consistent lighting with the background (direction of light) ?

With a few skillful adjustments on the thumb, you can even create a special version of Günther Rall :

Glove, Flying, Type FW5 m/33, Luftwaffe, Gunther Rall

Luftwaffe Type FW5 m/33 lined winter flying glove; dark brown exterior leather with fleece lining; adjustment strap with steel strapsl located at wrist; thumb torn open with exposed lining; dried blood stains on index and middle fingers of glove.This is an example of a standard i

@Kermit3D it's just a picture layer, there will be no consistent lighting. Still a step forward, and more immersive than writing ***THUMBS UP*** as a text in the top corner
