What's the first supposed to be, Adolf Toastler?

[–] ShareMySims@sh.itjust.works 113 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Good friend of Kettle Hitler

kettle hitler

And they sit next to each other on the kitchen counter at Führer house

hitler house

[–] weegee90@lemmy.world 29 points 10 months ago (4 children)

The house looks more like Jamie Hyneman with his barret to me.

Oh, man... sorry it's coming off like that. Since it's called the Humorless Toaster, the main inspiration is Ron Swanson. At least that's what I was going for...

[–] JASN_DE@lemmy.world 42 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ah. I think the moustache needs to be wider for that. Also, a label might be in order. Ron Toasterson or something.

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Agreed, wider and thicker with maybe a wavy/ ridge texture on the bottom half of the mustache and slight rounding/flaring on the sides that narrows to the top.

Feels like that's a good reference pic for OP.

Edit:

But I do prefer #2 more. Like others have said, it's simpler and easier to tell the expression.

[–] Road_Warrior_10@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It's the perfect pic, thank you. I admit I was working from memory

Yeah you got the mustache in that realm. I don't think it was intentional, but Hitler really did ruin the shortened mustache look.

[–] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Have you tried a design where it has a mustache for a mouth? As another lemming described, wider and wavy at the bottom. And then it can move up and down when it talks?

Edit: quick and dirty mockup. This would be my vote

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Just slap on a brown cutout mustache

[–] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago

Upvote for Hitler. OP, I don't know if intended, but a certain German politician was the first thing coming to mind

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (2 children)

The mustache is much too wide. I don't know why everyone sees Hitler.

I agree. This is the best.

[–] Jessica@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 10 months ago

This is how I keep seeing option 1 where the longer line is a chin/fat roll 😅

One is them is angry, the other is furherious

[–] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 93 points 10 months ago

Number 2. Unless you firmly believe there's no such thing as bad publicity.

[–] Barzaria@lemmy.dbzer0.com 81 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Toaster 1 looks like Hitler. Don't use toaster 1.

[–] Mnemnosyne@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

Counterpoint: toaster 1 looks like Hitler. Use toaster 1.

[–] vikingtons@lemmy.world 42 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I think the second one. Assuming the middle bit is a nose, fewer details make for better deadpan toaster expression

[–] celeste@kbin.earth 38 points 10 months ago

2 for me. 1 took longer to parse.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 34 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Is the Toaster related to Hitler somehow? If not then the latter.

[–] Chickenstalker@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Nah. Hitler would be an oven.

2, but make him look more indifferent and less angry I think.

I can’t believe this isn’t a joke

[–] Gonzako@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

#1 only if you want a Hitler moustache. I prefer #2

[–] Decoy321@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Charlie Chaplin got done dirty. He was rocking that stache for decades earlier.

[–] thatsTheCatch@lemmy.nz 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Some of Hitler's bodyguards said that Hitler was a fan of Chaplin. There's speculation (but not evidence) that he borrowed it because he liked Chaplin

The second. The nose-mustache of the first is confusing.

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Der Humorless Toaster ist nicht hier fur dein scheisse!

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago
[–] Berttheduck@lemmy.ml 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Depending on what you're going for, 1 and give them a German accent. Otherwise 2.

[–] Road_Warrior_10@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Wasn't going for German that's for sure, although...

[–] Maelstrom@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago
[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Definitely #1. But you can't ever make any reference to it looking like Big H in the game. Just make it so people say "... is that supposed to be Hitler?"

[–] Road_Warrior_10@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Thank you, yeah was going for more of a Ron Swanson, but now I totally see how people can see The Notorious H.I.T.

For anyone curious, the game I'm working on is kind of inspired by The Stanley Parable, and you can check it out on Steam, maybe even wishlist (it would help a lot) : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2336120/Do_Not_Press_The_Button_To_Delete_The_Multiverse/

2 for sure one has a confusing mouth-stache

1 has more character

[–] Black616Angel@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 10 months ago

Make the upper one more mustache-y by making the stache longer than the lips and bend it downwards on the outside.

[–] mxcory@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

Number 1 but the upper line is the mouth and the lower line is the chin.
