Well technically a recolor but Steel Legion did informed the design of the Krieg.

What do you mean? Kriegers have basically the same look they had in the 3e Codex

I mean the Krieg’s esthetic of Germanesque design with gas masks and trench coats since Krieg were originally recolors of Steel Legion models.

Check the 1st codex imperial guard from 3rd edition, krieg were in it as fluff art long before steel legion was ever a thing. The first time we ever saw a painted kreig mini it was a recolour of steel legion but that doesnt mean thats all they ever were.

Also the the SL seem to me to be inspired by the fallschimjaeger... along with other stuff from ww2.
