UFO CGI images

I am having another go with Don Showalter's models, which I converted
to .OBJ + .MTL mode. I am having a go at improving the inside of its
cockpit. These are Poser 4.0.3 renders.

(1) is a view with a Poser character in its cockpit. Is he the right
proportion compared to the Interceptor?

(2) is a view from the cockpit.
(a) The bar up the middle of the windscreen seems to hinder the
pilot's view rather. Should I remove it? It may be there in the
studio models, but I suspect that it wouldn't be there in a real
fighter plane.
(b) In Don's model, its pilot's helmet has a red bar up the middle
and over the top. But the back of the helmet is missing because the
viewer was not supposed to see it. In a complete helmet, would that
red bar run all the way down the back of the helmet to the neck? Or
what? Is there anywhere a picture of the back of a Interceptor
pilot's helmet?

Hi all,

There's a Mike Billington auto-card up for auction on eBay. These come from
"The Prisoner" series put by Cards, Inc. -- the same people that are supposed
to do the UFO set.

There's a scan of the card with the auction:

Please note that I am only sending this info for REFERENCE! I have NO
connection with the seller and do NOT endorse the auction above. I am merely
showing an example of an auto-card with a UFO actor. :)

If I find one with Wanda (who signed for this set, too), I will post.

Anthony

Yes, I got my Cards Inc. catalog yesterday, and was quite impressed
by the number of autographed cards they have for the Prisoner:

I wonder if they're planning to do all this for UFO?
