I've been working for a while now on a picture of a modern version of Captain America, as I see him working alongside the troops over in SW Asia. A special word of thanks to all the men and women over there now.

Thanks for what you do for all of us.

Great work Steve. Cap's costume is very well thought out - and I particularly like the way you've incorporated elements of real life kit and toned down the spandex look. The helmet/mask combo works better than I would have expected. Also like the use of silhoettes - and the subtle way you've included Cap as one of the guys. :thumbsup:

Thanks - I took some elements of the uniform idea from pictures I've seen of the upcoming movie. From what I hear, they tried to make the uniform for him look more practical and less cartoony, while still maintaining the overall look. I also read somewhere that in the movie he actually wears the comic-book style uniform as part of a publicity campaign, to talk folks into buying war bonds. I can't wait to see the movie!
Thanks again for the kind words!

Steve

I know what you mean - I'm really looking forward to this movie too. I can see why they wouldn't go for the comic-book style uniform - but it'll be great if they use it like you say. Fingers crossed this will be one of the better comic-to-film conversions!
