I don’t go here or anything but whatever genre of character design König and Ghost are I absolutely adore. whatever you call “can reasonably be a person in an elaborate outfit but the outfit itself gives you the vibes it’s not.” like yeah these are just two guys in military gear but it doesn’t feel like it. reasonably it’s just a person underneath but you FEEL like that shouldn’t be the case.
like it’s different from stuff I’ve talked about before but also not, things like knight and Tokusatsu helmets, where the entire face is obscured in a way it becomes the face itself? These two pull off that exact same vibe, just in a different way. It’s so Fascinating to me that just a simple shroud/mask and face paint gives these otherwise completely normal dudes, the same looming, cool inhuman vibe the way a suit of knight armor does. same concept, different fonts.
look at these two images and tell me these are NOT two wildly different subspecies of the same Weird Critter.
Does Anyone Hear Me.
