The Definitive Captain America "Avengers" Costume Thread

[Chris Fields]

Is it just me... or does the Shield look Plastic and Not Metallic as the one in the First Avenger Film did?

I realize it could just simply be the lighting...

These shots are showing the rubber stunt shield. The same rubber stunt shields were used in TFA as well.

 

[Mr.Spider]

Finally a decent shot of the back lol

To me, in these Photos Chris Evans looks much thinner than in the First Avenger Film, especially in this Photo:

The costume looks nice... but why did they put a Zipper right down the front of his stomach?

Don't get me wrong, I'm still looking forward to seeing "The Avengers", especially with the Characters in the film and the Villain who has yet to be announced (Yes I know who it is but can't say until later...).

I am sorry, but the more I see of this costume, the more I like TFA version better. And I agree that Scarlett is looking a bit thick in the tummy tum in some shots. LOL

:lol Cap just looks ridiculous in these pictures. How could anyone take that guy seriously?

 

[bschossler]

This suit is much better than the ones that I have been able to find. I wish I had the ability to build something like this, oh well I guess I'll jsut stick to purchasing already made ones :/

wow... scarlet's lookin thick. haha ya im diggin the angles but it still escapes me how one could construct those boots from the oakley si shoes.

On what planet is she "thick"? I'd like a one-way ticket there, wherever it might be.
Sorry...I have to defend my girlfriend's honor. :lol

 

[EFFalcon]

the only thing thick is the heels of those horrible shose.

This shot looks a lot better than the others (except for being caught mid blink). I know the colors are darker in this shot, which helps, but I also noticed Evans head position and facial expression is different here than in the other shots. When his chin is down, he looks like a goon. Here, his chin is up and his face doesn't look as puffy as the other shots. Seems like his neck has to be extended a bit to make the costume look decent.

True, but those heels help her butt look better. I remember Jeri Ryan (7 of 9 from Star Trek: Voyager) responding to a comment that it seemed silly that she had high heels as a former Borg. She said something about them pretty much being necessary when you're wearing a skin tight catsuit.

 

[Mr.Spider]

like everything i imagine once we see official shots with lighting etc it will look better, he does seem thinner, also the tops of those boots look more formed to his claf than I originally thought. Honestly I'm about to just photoshop the pattern and have it printed on a heavyweight spandex or jersey, in white and just dye it the proper colors

 

[JLeezy23]

How does printed patterns actually work? Well i found this anyway, looks somewhat like the neck/helm fabric pattern

it had never occurred to me that it looks like a carbon fiber weave print...

though I think this one looks a bit better

Yea i wasn't sure which one looked closer. There we go for one step closer!

 

[Sarkin]

The chest cloth material just looks like multiple layers of close-knit sports jersey material. I used to paintball, the Dye jersey I wore had almost the exact same look of the texture and weight of the material. As well, sports jersey material would make the most sense for being able to move around.

I have been looking all over for the right type of motorcycle/sport gloves for this, and have been failing left and right. Thats 2 full days I'm never getting back! The search continues...

 

[callmemilo]

I had a good search for them too, but to no success. I've decided to get mine custom made. Whether they'll be any good or not remains to be seen

I'll keep you guys posted.

 

[Mr.Spider]

Yeah , i've been down that road too.... Seems to me the gloves simply "borrow" design elements from moto / driving gloves, custom is going to be the way to go with this

 

[JLeezy23]

I was looking at this for a base, kinda close but obviously needs modding. I usually wear large but it felt baggy when i tried it on, a medium worked to get a Cap style look to it

That's a good idea for a base. I wonder how attaching those metal bands on the shoulders would work.
