Thanks a lot for everyone for participating on the task; unfortunately, we didn't get every letter through the task, and although we did get most, we were unable to use the exact submissions in the film. We did use the stylistic ideas, but had to unify them and have an artist re-draw them to be able to get what we needed in right schedule. So the task didn't go to waste, but wasn't possible to use it in the current form.
Thanks a lot for everyone participating.
So, we have alphabets for the small children in school, hanging above a blackboard. Nazified alphabets, that is. Here's the list - next, we need good and clear ideas for the pictures.
Some actually already started to do those plans in earlier task - here's one good example:
http://www.wreckamovie.com/shots/show/5296
We need the ideas in a very clear form - and unfortunately, only
a) text descrpitions
or
b) your own, hand-made sketches or drawings
no photoshopping or links from the Internet, since we need to do original art for the film.
And remember, we need to be naivistic - like in school pictures. Clear, very simple, applicable to the children - like in the example attached here.
Again, here's the list and some suggestions for the pictures:
A – Adolf (Picture: Adolf Hitler)
B – Blitzkrieg (Picture: Stukas attacking)
C – Chemie
D – Dolch (Picture: SS Dagger)
E – Erde (Picture: Earth)
F – Führer (Picture: Führer Wolfgang Höss (played by Udo Kier))
G – Götterdämmerung (Picture: A big spaceship)
H – Hakenkreuz (Picture: Swastika)
I – Ideologie (Picture: Mein Kampf)
J – Jude (Picture: One of those 40's Nazi-drawn caricature Jews)
K – Kraut (Picture: cabbage)
L – Luger (Picture: Luger)
M – Mond (Picture: Moon)
N – Nationalsozialismus (Picture: ???)
O – Obersalzberg (Picture: Idyllic mountain landscape)
P – Panzer (Picture: Tank)
Q – Quartier (Picture: Spartan Nazi quarters)
R – Reich (Picture: ???)
S – Schutzstaffel (Picture: SS logo)
T – Totenkopf (Picture: SS Totenkopf -skull emblem)
U – U-Boot (Picture: Submarine)
V – Volk (Picture: People sieg hailing)
W – Wehrmacht (Picture: Moon Nazi soldiers marching)
X – X-Strahlen
Y – Yankee (Picture: An astronaut with an American flag in the background)
Z – Zündapp (Picture: Sidewagon motorcycle)
Ä – Äthanol (PIcture of a Koskenkorva bottle)
Ö – Öl (Picture: Oil)
Ü - Übermensch (Picture: Muscular blonde man, ideal Aryan übermensch)
I know this is a much trickier one -

Mercury
Pictured are a Quecksilberdampf-Lampe (mercury vapor bulb), mercury droplets, and a random chart with the forces [H], [g], and [c] (magnetic field intensity, gravity, speed of light).

Here are the best pictures I found of him.
I took the liberty to prep them a bit for editing.
I found it googling, so I don't even know if it's free :-(
EDIT: Added picture from the flickr page
Maybe the easiest way for finding a picture for nationalsozialismus is using the drawing for V (Volk). A heiling folk for N (nationalsozialismus). For V you could use Vergeltung with the drawing of a V2 (the black-white painted rocket).
Edit: I attached my pic of an V2.
Raumschiff means starship in german.
Idea based on one rendering from propaganda section on ironsky.net
Would it be better to make a simplified drawing of the Valkyre starship instead of a rendering?
Another one. Cabbage might need some tweaking. Original picture is in svg format.
Sorry for spoiling the fun, but as far as I know, the Nazis forbade fonts like the ones used in the images for "R" or "P".
Sure, I know, everybody thinks, thats the good old german kraut-font, and I see the that clichés have to be served, but in my opinion it is historically seen wrong.
Edit:
Here are also some sources:
"The use of antiqua alongside Fraktur increased, leading to the Antiqua-Fraktur dispute, which lasted until the Nazis abandoned Fraktur in 1941"-
source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackletter#Germany
"Ein Erlass des NS-Regimes von Januar 1941 (Martin Bormann bezeichnete in Hitlers Auftrag die der "Fraktur" ähnlichen Schwabacher als 'Judenschrift') erklärte dann jedoch die Antiqua zur „Normalschrift“"
source: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraktur_%28Schrift%29
Based on the Idea of Stig-Magnus Gjerald
Edit: 2nd Picture is also based on the drawing by Angela Ruggero for E - Earth
Edit2: Maybe you could change the idea for E for earth to E for Euthanasie, or to E for Endsieg. I will made a sketch for both of them.
Now, this has a swastika so will have to be edited, but is soemthing like this simple enough?
That or a picture of a planet witha german warbanner
I've got an idea and this is my first implementation.
If u have some suggestions tell them to me.
thanks!

Maybe bullets instead of a chart?
They could be using mercury fulminate or a derivative, or just pack their bullets full of mercury...
Cool idea, although possibly too complicated for a child. Although that may have been deliberate... just to show (once more) how crazy the moonazis are. ;)
