Title: GTVA Uniform?
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on November 05, 2004, 03:38:39 pm
Aside from what we've seen in cutscenes (ie the Taranis capture breifing) and in the mainhall, and the rank insignia, has anyone made a more indepth GTA/GTVA uniform?

Do all personell wear that beige suit, or is there a different colour for officers and O/Rs? Does each ship have it's own emblem/crest, like each squadron does? Etc

Well, in the modern US navy, the duty uniforms are all beige or ,umm, navy(sic), dress uniforms are white with rank insignia prominently displayed.

I woild imagine ship tags (name badges) on unifroms, or maybe crests.

You may not believe this, but some time ago someone actually sent me their webpage with all kinds of extrapolated uniforms on it.
But that was a while ago (at least 2 reformats) and I don't think I can find it.

i had a friend who was drawing me out design concepts for a GTVA Uniform on the human side of things... as well as NTF and such, she hasnt gotten back to me with them yet, but they are remenicent of like most modern naval uniforms.. (however the US still is like stuck in the 1970s with there look....)

Pilots seem to wear their flightsuits no matter the occasion, when shipboard.

Galemp: you might want to make that image a link.

Cafepress is great, by the way. The HLP hat I've got is very nice.

This reminds me of something; have you noticed the flag in the left wall during the Command briefing? GTA logo on grey (planet, I suppose), and then surrounded by blue, white and red "stripes". I suppose that's the GTA's flag, right?

The flag is clearly visible on this render:

I think one of those pilots is playing Space Invaders, instead of listening to his captain´s brief...

Time honored sport, that.

I think that, since this is a briefing, the pilots are launching soon anyway, so they're already wairing suits. The officer isn't wairing too much rank insigna (I can't see any), but it looks like a fairly standard kaki suit.

Sorta looks like it's on his right collar. I think star trek did the same.
