Dredge Community Contest Skin
Dear Devs,
I understand that dbd is a spooky game, but the Dredge skin from 2024 won the way it was concepted.
The whole joke was that bizarre, horrifying Dredge gets a few sheets drawn over. I honestly would love a lighter cosmetic for this killer.
The lamp in his left hand would be amazing too.
I was really looking forward to this cosmetic and I would like to ask you to please please consider reworking so that it's much closer to the concept art that won.

Much agreed.
What they did with the skin sucks. They looked at the submission and used it as inspiration rather than a guide, which is not what anyone wanted. We want that skin, not BHVR's re-interpretation of it. They destroyed all of its personality. They didn't do the sheets properly, they didn't even try to do the fabric scissors. The original design was a cohesive aesthetic and BHVR said, "Nah."
Have they fixed the Singularity submission skin where they purposefully chose to mess up his screen face, yet?

No. the face is still completely not what anyone voted for. Everyone wanted the goofy emote faces.
Zero people wanted the weird creepy orange distorted skull flicker thing.
Like, why can’t we just get what we voted for? Who decided to put extra effort into making the cosmetic worse?

What a damn shame. The emote is so much better. Makes me wonder if they even plan to fix it, 'cause it shouldn't take this long.

This comes off like someone there thinking they can do better than the submitted design and wanting to put their own mark on it so they'll get compliments for their changes. Which is a rather insecure way to approach the task. It'd be better to take pride in trying to make the most accurate translation possible of the source material.
People want to see the thing they designed/voted for added to the game, not see it used as a jumping off point for what the design team wants to do. Nor do we want to see the every-corner-cut version (ugh, those scissors they gave the Dredge are so low effort and ugly).

Agreed. I get they can take a little artistic license to make the skin translate better into dbd but this one feels like the person that made the 3d model never saw the winning contest entry, they only had it described to them in vague terms.

Yep I agree, What they did was lazy and unnecessary bad idea. Behaviour they took away the creativity of the original idea.
(And spooky factor of the unknown what’s under the sheet)
No lantern 🏮 first fail, Weapon not like original design and overlay huge on the Killers pov screen.
(I mean wow your blind now, please sort that)
And the borderline worse offence here,Why is dredge head out from under the ghostly veil #########?
Looks so cringe and doesn’t follow the original artist design at all so sad.
Because dredge barely gets any love as it is skin wise, Looking at you legion.
(Legion gets too much skins fyi Behaviour what about other original killers?)
So yes rework this cosmetic for Dredge please and actually follow the original concept art Behaviour.
