If someone was dressed like this what would you think?

This is for an event where you wear costumes.

What would you think they'd come as / were trying to look like?

(Having a slight disagreement with DS!)

Thanks :)

Steampunk pirate general

I would think they spent too much time hanging out in Games Workshop. Looks like a random warhammer piece.

Pirates of the Caribbean!

Definite nazi I’m afraid..!

Steam punk nazi

NewlyGranny · 14/09/2021 19:28

Why not show him some real life Nazi uniforms -:the helmet shape, the weird "caps with erections", give him a quick historic but age-appropriate run-down on the atrocities, look at the respons to Duke of Sussex's costume blunder and how it came back to haunt him? Then tell him you have no intention of allowing him to blight his future by blundering into a horrible mistake. He must choose something that has no clear elements of the uniforms of the regime that killed millions and set the world in fire. That's reasonable, surely?

Luftwaffe.

Am I the only person in the universe who does not know what the fuckety fuck Steampunk is?Confused

It’s the hat with (what I see are skulls?) which creates the familiar - though exaggerated silhouette.

Perhaps if he didn’t wear the hat? The jacket on its own doesn’t look particularly ‘Nazi’ but it does more with the hat

Scooby Doo Villain!

RosesandPumpkins · 14/09/2021 20:41

I know it’s not nazi but defo getting nazi vibes from the hat.

Dryadia · 14/09/2021 20:52

What about one of the Space Wolves, ( my favourite marines, I used to paint the figures for DH, hs mates and our kids to play with.) The necromunda gangs would be another good option.

Willow19C · 14/09/2021 20:57

I paint warhammer and none of mine resemble the one that you said your son wants to complain as. He definitely has MANY other choices that aren't so "world war"/Nazi looking. I would ask him to consider something else. A picture on social media in a few years of his particular warhammer will not age well.
The blue character you posted in your third post is more appropriate looking and also stands out more to be as warhammer, rather than the Nazi looking ones.

*cosplay as!

MakkaPakkas · 14/09/2021 20:58

Something from Warhammer

MrsSkylerWhite · 14/09/2021 20:58

Looks like the weird pirates from “The Fog”.

Bimblybomeyelash · 14/09/2021 21:03

Steampunk napoleon?

panauchocolat · 14/09/2021 21:19

Nazi creep .
Better not :(

ZealAndArdour · 14/09/2021 21:20

Deffo nazi vibes. Looks like a baddie anyway.

Is it a Warhammer character?

ZealAndArdour · 14/09/2021 21:21

Am I the only person in the universe who does not know what the fuckety fuck Steampunk is?

It’s for ageing goths who for some explicable reason love cogs and wearing big goggles.

ZealAndArdour · 14/09/2021 21:22

*inexplicable.

Backtoblack1 · 14/09/2021 21:26

@LST

A stormtrooper that decided a career in piracy was for him.
Exactly what I thought!!!

faithfulbird20 · 14/09/2021 21:46

Creepy villain type character that would suck the soul out of anything
