Please forgive me for cluttering the Military forum with a Sci-Fi question, but I'm in the process of scratch-building an interior for my 1/18 Flying Sub, and the fabrication of the pilot and copilot have me stumped (what can I say; sculpting figures is not my forte).
Given the somewhat generic military flight-jacket-&-khakis look favored by Admiral Nelson and Co. it occurred to me I might be able to kit-bash commercially available figures similar to those pictured in this reference shot...

If any of you military modelers has any suggestions as to where I might find a suitable 1/18 scale match for the above figures I'd be grateful if you'd point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Oh, here are a few test-fit/ work-in-progress shots of the exterior...
