Description So who here read my latest journal entry? No? Well at the bottom under 'current projects' I wrote that I had been asked to submit art for the next Spin Doctors column. The topic I was given was What if Captain America was female?
So I decided to militarise her up a bit, give her the funky jacket etc. I wanted to keep some of the iconic elements (The shield, the Star logo etc) but jazz her up a bit. The challenge for me was two-fold - a. I have trouble drawing women and b. I've never pulled off a good pic of the Cap.
Anyway, too much talk - please click the link in my journal entry and check out the column and the previous topics.

I think you nailed it, I love your style. Personally, I think having her face in profile makes it look more like a panel, like she's about to do something. I think it works. So what materials do you use? (so I can steal your style!!! ) Good job.

Well, I think the only thing that doesn't "do it" for me would be her Head. Like her face and hair just isn't quite right. Shit not that I could do better, Just saying thats the only thing that ruins the look for me. I love the rest. Great military feel and use of the old design. About the wings ~ lastscionz talked about. I think it would be a'lil too corny to have em. If any place they might look better on the shoulder where the stars are, or on a helmet.
Ya.... I shouldn't bitch.... It looks great

it's cool... not the best image i've seen from you.. and yeh.. never noticed that you didn't draw much females... hmm... this kinda reminds me more of Cap's side-kick Bucky.... just a little older... me thinks that the iconic [little] wings on caps headgear would work with this.. like maybe give her a headband... just my 50 cents....

Two things I think would have made it better...
1. Not have her right arm in shadow. 2. have her looking towards us rather then a profile shot!

Just some little nitpicks, overall I think its a pretty kick ass design. Definately the better of the two designs I've seen so far! Great work once again dude!

tyrannus In reply to jimmyjoejoe- [2004-05-04 14:44:29 +0000 UTC]

Good nitpicks I had the arm in shadow to draw focus off what I was keeping (the shield) and aim the focus at the redesign instead. As for the face thing - yeah I can see where your coming from and I agree, however I suck at drawing chicks and just could not get a front view looking good. Not trying to justify it as such, just explaining my reasons
