James Hunt Hesketh Racing suit

About this paint

This suit is inspired by an actual suit (as in the top picture) worn by James when he raced for Hesketh. He did race in a suit with the "... Breakfast of Champians" patch, but it had other patches in addition to his blood group. This suit had two different "saucy" patches in addition to more traditional racing ones. As well as the unconventional patches, Hunt was known for cutting the toes out of his boots; although he did still waer Nomex socks. As the pit crew shares the same suit as the driver they will also have their boot toes cut off (not very health and safety). I drive in VR so can actually see my (virtual) feet, but I don't think they can be seen when using screens; so will do a suit with toes in the boots, so the pit crew do not get into trouble with the race officials. I have also done the matching (DUCKHAMS) helmet, which I will upload later.
