I hope that if we do get cosmetics or the ability to have custom skins for infantry then we also get it for vehicle crew. I want my custom pilot helmets Gaijin.
plus clown face paint
Considering that this is technically historical since it was used in a military training, would be a interesting item to be added for US cosmetics:
Sources say that this photo was used as a sort of poster referencing the Family Guy season 2, episode 17 “He’s Too Sexy for His Fat”. Directly quoting from Reddit:
The photos were taken in Camp Nathan Smith, Kandahar, Afghanistan, in March 2009, by Canadian soldiers from the Provincial Reconstruction Team. Owen ordered the clown suit from Amazon specifically to recreate the scene from the family guy episode. The idea was to create a “demotivational poster”. Memes were not really a thing yet.

I got in trouble for having that joke in this post. A mode edited it out of the post name but kept it in the discussion starter. It would be funny to have a lot of clown face paint you can unlockable. Also Japanese and Chinese style face paint always looks cool.
FYI The clown boots must squeak when running
Clown facepaint and outfit should be exclusive and mandatory for “community flaggers” along with character models based off “Baby steps” protagonist.
Demotivational posters were memes, the name “meme” just wasn’t there yet.

Demotivational poster where usually found in class rooms it was a joke on there strange appearance.
From what was said in the Russian dev stream it seems like there will be customisation for the mode. Guns skins are planned no word on soldier skins yet.

War Thunder has a “disable fictional cosmetics” slider. This would apply for fictional infantry cosmetics as well, I imagine.

I heard that but I know Gaijin can make a dollar so it is 99% going to happen. Gun skins are easy to implement and in the old days people would mod them in anyway. There is a difference between equipment mods and Cosmetics. Cosmetics add minimum to no benefit mods depend on what you want to do.
that okay
Demotivational posters were early memes and internet was full of them at one point due to format’s popularity.

No CoD.
Maybe allow weeb according to real frontline decos, maybe a few like the toilet and that’s it. Camo only elsewhere.

I mean, a toilet would work for infantry for sure (f.e. carried on the back) but only for 1 nation for historical accuracy.
Do you have an image of this? Like is someone hulling a porta potty around? Or is this a Military Bio toilet?
