Whenever I painted miniatures and models of Judges, I always went for Dark blue.  Except the SJS, I did them black.

Yeah, I cant tell if it is a black costume with blue highlighting, or a blue costume with shading.

Consider Superman's hair.

So black blue highlightings? Thats a great example btw

Black. Blue is meant to be light on it

Is this in every incarnation or the mjority of incarnations? I know difitent artists have dif takes

[Ghost MacRoth]

Entirely subjective.  It's been drawn as black with the blue as highlights, or an entirely blue suit with darker blue detailing.  I reckon it's really artists interpretation.

When I've coloured it I tend to do it as a very very very very very dark blue.

Has there been a majority tho?

[Ghost MacRoth]

The majority are likely the black and white strips....hard to tell from that!

I stick to the black suits for my Dredd miniatures. Only once tried blue suit and didn't liked final effect.

The helmet, I think, is definitely black. So if the helmet is depicted as black with blue highlights, and so is the suit, then the suit is black. But sometimes the helmet's highlights are white, which makes the suit look really blue.
