Long as we're talking Dredd, I love how he has not one, not two, but three eagles in his uniform: buckle, shoulderpad and badge. And that's not counting the designs where all of his pouches have tiny eagles as buttons.

i'm imagining a caveman version of Dredd where he just ties real, living eagles to his body with rope and they just chill there glaring menacingly at crime just like him

I need to start reading this comic.

>Eagles are a nazi symbol
I never fully appreciated all these details in Judge Dredd's design.

>>83625705
Why were Nazis so fucking stylish, goddamn.

I remember an anon posting about how Nazi uniforms being extra /fa/ lead to them freezing to death. Nazis would often steal coats from American soldiers because theirs weren't warm enough. It also was a problem with production- all the little details made them expensive to make and they couldn't keep up.

Also Darkseid's design is great- in context with the new gods. Newer designs for Darseid add more colors and segments, but that misses the point entirely. The other New Gods are busy with ornate armor and lots of colors. Even the gods of Apokalips, but not Darkseid. Darkseid IS. He needs no ornaments to announce his importance. Every detail about him is understated. It's great shit Jack.

Not only that, but the position of the X would realistically render him blind.

Desaad doesn't do flashy bling and Orion is incredibly sparse.

I pretty much agree though I feel he wouldn't lose much if you added more detail to him.

If only for like say, visual ties to the new gods.

Toy image from the cartoons I know but still. his rebirth version from Unlimited featured a bit more new gods and kirby influences. while still pretty much keeping the basics of the costume. metal cowl, miniskirt, Big boots, and broad frame.

What prog is this?

It takes a lot of work to make someone like Himmler look like an ideal specimen of humanity.

I consider Orions flying thingy to be a part of his design.
I will concede Desaad. But due to his closeness to Darkseid I don't think it diminishes my point.
>>83626128
Visual ties to the other New Gods is entirely counter to what I like about it though. He's put himself above the other gods by not dressing like them.

I'm very much the same. The simpler the better.

I was just trying to reach across the Aisle a little bit. I'm fascinated by redesigns and I happen to like the new god look.

Also I think Spider-Mans design is utterly brilliant.
It translates perfectly to live action without any added details or textures. It conveys what powers he has, it speaks to Peters personality. Spider-man has a perfect costume.

>>83626297
His Nu52 design is greatly simplified. Looks far better in my opinion.

Bernadeth is also pretty spartan in design. Stompa too.

>>83625988

i will cherish this forever

I always thought the red lining was an M for the MAN, but I see what you mean about the X.

>>83625705
they got where they did largely on good branding. Image was like their entire thing.

Half truth. In the winter following D-Day, US soldiers in Europe were 100% up shit creek as far as appropriate seasonal clothing went. To a US soldier in the forests of France, the white winter coat of the German infantry men and artillery men was as prized as a Luger.

The Germans did however really fucking suffer in the Eastern front, and were not prepared with dense enough winter gear to survive long term in the outside elements of Russia (Hitler envisioned a quick capture of Russia and thus uniforms were never prepared for protracted involvement). Nor was there enough replenishment of standard gear to go around due to the incredibly over-stretched supply lines being constantly compromised by enemy attack or made inaccessible due to Russia's famous winter mud. It had nothing to do with /fa/ness so much as poor planning and logistics.
