New SS Axis Skins?

Heres an Idea for some new SS axis skins.
These skins would be wearing black uniforms, and look real "spiffy" and "clean"
I was thinking for the unterofizer, he should be wearing black leather. He should be wearing a a cap like the pictures on this site. http://www.photosammler.de/w010101e.htm he should have that eagle thingy on his sleeve. maybe (if possible) have him wearing a pair of eye glasses.
for standard infantry like sturmtruppe, they should be wearing black uniforms. It would be cool if one of the skins, could have a canteen on the side of his hip and maybe a pack of cigarettes hagning out of his shirt pocket.
The sniper should have a similar look to the sniper from enemy at the gates. He should have a standard cap on, and I think an awsome idea would be (if possible) to have a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. It would be cool to have him with a jacket/ coat/ trenchcoat of some sort...i'm thinking maybe black jacket with sheepskin on the collar...ya...sheepskin.
The Machine gunner should have black leather gloves. A canteen. Cigarettes out of his pocket. But he shouldn't have an ammo belt slung around his neck. Maybe, have him wearing some kind of eye protecting gear...(just an idea).

I have tried the recent SS sets by Devin Kryss and others, but none of them really hit the spot for me. Please, give it some thought...how cool would it be to see a sniper with a cigarette hanging from his mouth or an unterofizer wearing all black leather. Thanks for your time...

I really would like to see a realistic SS pack. But not the way you would like to see them. The skins you would like to use, would be more like the regular SS, not Waffen SS.
I think these SS Feldgrau uniforms on the pictures do look very nice.

Be patient. If somebody wants to do it, he will respond.

why would an SS Unteroffizer have a Luftwaffe badge?

Alright, so shoot me...I was wrong...In case you haven't noticed, these wouldn't be the most historicaly correct skins.

The problem with doing good SS skins is that there are not really any good models that don't give mirrored collar and sleeve textures.

I am new to this stuff...is it hard to make models. Are there any modelers out there who would be willing to do this? maybe if possible, just skin the default dod skins and add some stuff on. I dont know, this was an idea, and I'd love to see it get done. Thanks anyway for all your respones.

I´m not sure wich status this pack has now, or if it will ever be released. As far as I know Bishop and Whap had some problems, and not enought time. We will see....
