[MREQ] Luftwaffe camoflauge

Alright, we have both the default paratrooper skins, and the new paratrooper skins done by Dillinger. However, I'm not looking for new paratrooper camo/uniform skins.

What I am looking for is a redo of the basic axis models, with Fallschirm Panzer Korps HG and Luftwaffe Field Division camo. What follows are a bunch of examples of some of the stuff I'd like to see.

Ok, that should be enough. If not I can post more. Now, I will describe the HG division, and the Luftwaffe Field divisions.

The HG division was similar to the 1st SS, which was formed by Hitler as a bodyguard unit, in that it was a division formed by Hermann Göring in the early 30's as a police unit. This police unit evolved into a Luftwaffe Armored Division during the war. It's men were trained and outfitted by the Luftwaffe, but for all intents and purposes, their field gear was similar to the Heer. Only the insignia of the Luftwaffe was different (the shoulder boards, collar tabs, luftwaffe breast eagle in the one picture). They wore the same field grey uniforms, but had the different Luftwaffe camo. This unit had all of the same types of combat soldiers as a regular army panzer division.

The Luftwaffe field divisions were scrapped together from surplus Luftwaffe personnel (air crewmen, pilots, etc.) who weren't in usage for aerial operations. These men were given a rifle, and told to kill the enemy. They wore the Luftwaffe blues (NOT field grey), and Luftwaffe camo. They wore the Luftwaffe insignia, but not the HG division insignia (the white collar tabs, etc.).

Many thanks in advance if anyone can do one or a ton of these skins. I know you guys have your own ideas in your head...I've just never seen these units done before, and they are often overlooked.

Thanks, and have a good one.
