Okay been wanting to make this post for a bit.
Legend of Korra top Villain designs.
I pretty much like all the villain designs in LoK, hell one of them is my favorite villain design of the entire franchise. None of the designs are over the top or impractical.
1. Amon: His design is simple yet effective (my favorite designs), Amon is a tall man that has nothing but a bit of battle gear that cover up any skin, a hood and a simple red and white kabuki mask. Besides for the end we never get to see whats under all that gear except for his piercing grey eyes.
The reason why he has the best designed villain of the franchise is just how they use his design in the show. Episodes like A Voice in the Night and The Revolution are great utilization of his designs to make he threatening, mysterious, powerful and just a force.
2. Kuvira: Her and Amon were neck and neck, but as I said how they used Amon design put him ahead. Her design is simple and effective, a military design with showing off her authority and her power with every few imperfections besides the mole and her hair (preferred if they keep her ponytail but it be a bitch to animate). Her metal bands actually serve a purpose besides looking cool she can use them to fight and restrain.
3. Zaheer: His later design is reminiscent of gurus and air nation clothing we have seen in the series. A robe like clothing and a stash in darker colors grey and dark green that contrast withe the traditional bright air nation colors yellow and orange.
I wish Zaheer keep his hair and epic beard though, they reminded me of Alan Moore. Although it makes sense why he changed it. To blend in because if he kept that shit he be spotted in a heart beat.
4. Vaatu & Una...: Not much i can say about Vaatu, he a kite like spirit and his colors are supposed to contrast Raava and represent him being the spirit of choas etc. Like how in the wan episodes there are little tweaks to his design as he separates from Raava and he grows bigger.
Unalaq: I don't like his design.
