Avenger a Day: Captain America
Just got around to this last piece… sorry. It should really be called Avenger a Day Late at this point. I wasn’t sure whether to draw Bucky or Steve, but I guess this makes it more current. Don’t ask me how he can hear through his cowl… maybe the costume transmits sound through winglets.
Avenger a Day: Maria Hill
I’ve always been a little confused as to why Marvel has two short-haired female characters running around in S.H.I.E.L.D. outfits (the other one being Daisy from Secret Warriors), so my visual cue for Hill is slightly longer hair, which is pretty much how she’s depicted in Invincible Iron Man.
Also, I didn’t think it was appropriate to put a S.H.I.E.L.D. emblem on her arm, so I made up a Star-Avengers A hybrid. Hope nobody minds.

Avenger a Day: Iron Man
Though I like this suit a lot more than the Granov/ Extremis armor, the chest detail is a real bitch to get the hang of. I do dig that the overall design is a lot sleeker though. Here’s hoping I didn’t fuck it up too badly.

Surprisingly fun to draw, this sketch of Clint Barton didn’t feel right until I got around to giving him a slight smirk. His mask is probably also a lot shorter than usual, but hey… that’s how I draw him. I never got to know Hawkeye pre-Disassembled, but I have a feeling he’s gonna be my favorite Avenger in the Heroic Age.

Avenger a Day: Wolverine
Not quite my favorite Avenger to draw, especially with the mask on, but the canucklehead is growing on me. I’ve only ever sketched him a handful of times but every time I do, I dial back to my Madureira roots.
