Description

I wanted to make Captain America have a pissed off ready for combat look to him. The scales have a flared eagle feather look. His gloves and boots have blood because he knocked some nazis ass out. Scales are worn down a bit. Then instead of white I put silver cause I felt that the white was for show/being a symbol but silver armor look was for combat.
The shield I left red,white and blue because thats are flag colors not red,white,red,and blue so no extra red ring.

Captain America was made out of a street fighter Guile dremeled down.
Hardest part about that was Guile's crazy hair.

The most fun but most pain in the butt. Was the scales at first I tried to had sculpt the scales but that failed miserably.
So I got the idea to get a hole punch and go to town on the cardboard that comes with ML toys for scales.

I punched out a lot of scales and some were cut in half to fit in the smaller parts of the body.
Each scale was applied using a tiny bit of fixit sculpt. Then when the scales were done I used superglue to make sure they stayed. Cap's wings on his head were also made from the scales just cut very small.

I used vallejo paints for Cap. I started with a black base coat for the entire figure.
The blue suit was a black and blue mix with four different layers of blue drybrushed.
Gunmetal was used with a black ink wash.
Gore red and scar red for the stripes and blood splatt.
Then three different layers of brown for gloves and boots.

The shield is just a dollar mirror from walmart with rubber bands on the back.
