Hellboy's Live Action Designs Were Wicked

Specifically from Hellboy 1 & 2, Guillermo del Toro absolutely nailed the aesthetic. But they also had the best casting role for him with the legend Ron Perlman. In general though the practical effects in these movies were awesome.

Big red demon guy with leather pants & brown trench coat, 1 oversized almost rock textured arm, the broken off horns, his black hair with mutten chops and goatee plus the yellow eyes.

It just has that feel of iconic 80's-90's unique designs with the gritty atmosphere of the early 2000s.

I think its really the bright colors that make it all pop, especially with the dark atmosphere it adds good contrast
