Fancasting for "Land of the Giants" reboot (Preface)

As mentioned a few weeks earlier, here is the fancasting I have come up with for a Land of the Giants reboot, whether it be series or movie. Some rules/notes:
1) In most cases, I do not favor one actress over another, but I will say so if I do.
2) Since we are for SW here, the male roles will be genderbent.
3) Since there are seven characters and a number of potential actresses, I’m starting a thread for each individual character so there’s lots of room for discussion, back and forth, photos, etc.
4) Threads will come in the order that they appeared in the opening credits.
5) Remember that this is all for fun -- watch out for the big hand prop!

This was a fun exercise! If I were to write a story with an all SW crew and passenger list, it would be:
Captain Stephanie Burton, age 42, seasoned suborbital pilot, former military pilot with multiple combat and special operations flights under her belt
First Officer Danielle Erickson, age 28, new employee to the company, experienced fighter pilot, still flies in the reserves
Betty Hamilton, age 27, aspiring painter and sculptor who works as a flight attendant to pay the bills
Maryam Wilson, age 29, dot com genius who is often called the new Tesla. Owns ten percent of the suborbital transport company
Valerie Scott, age 38, award winning actress and modern sex symbol whose career has recently reached its apex and is beginning its slow descent
Barrymore "Barry" Lockridge, age 18, shy high school senior, published poet, recent orphan and heir to a small fortune held in trust
Alexandria Fitzhugh, age 38, on the watchlist of several law enforcement agencies, including Interpol. Currently masquerading as a Lieutenant Commander in the British Royal Navy. Has a memory stick that contains half a billion euros worth of cryptocurrency, which she keeps close to her person at all times

Are these uniforms (L to R): co-pilot; flight attendant; pilot??

Actually, I did a swap of Danna and Steph. So, it's pilot; flight attendant; co-pilot.

I searched
for the logo and recreated it as a 3d .obj
for you. You can change the colors in DAZ (i just created the material zones, not the actual colors), and make your own prop

Edit : I played a bit with it in DAZ, i think i can do a better looking prop with the right colors and surfaces complete with a name shield you can add to any character. Only thing you need to do is to edit a PNG with the names in Photoshop or Gimp.

Me too. I like the examination pic you did a while back!
Just search
for LOTG badges there are a few that are easy to cut around.
I also have the other one
for Betty & Dan
