HAPPY AVENGERS DAY! <3

(currently at theater, whoo hoo!!)

Casting reasoning:

Hiro/Ironman - Do I really need to say anything? We know he’s probably going to end up there… Also, “I make everyone look cool.”

Tadashi/Captain America - I also think enough said. This Tadashi is Hiro’s brother, so he probably wasn’t an icicle for 70 years. There are so many Winter Soldier parodies, he mighta done a thing like Bucky except not for several decades. So just a short-term hyper-powered anti-hero, then we gets him back as Cap <3

Honey Lemon/Hulk - Crazy chemistry enthusiast who’s probably absolutely terrifying when she snaps. I bet canon Honey rarely gets angry, but this Honey—yeah, watch out. I looked at a lot of female body builders for reference while drawing her (damn they hot). Honey’s really flat to begin with, and with a ton of muscle gain it makes no sense for her to get huge boobs, sorry Marvel not doing that. When she transforms, she keeps her cute sports bra and leggings. She also carefully removes her shoes before doing so, because damn those are expensive and nice. Hire builds her a pair of reinforced steel and carbon fiber platform heels for when she’s in hulk mode; her mood improves slightly, in that she’s a tad less likely to try to smush him. Honey calls Hiro “Little Fly” when she’s hulking.

Fred/Thor - The one who comes from a completely different place from the others, and has no clue what he’s doing but is along for the ride anyway. My friend reallyquantum agreed with my casting, adding, “He’s the snobby rich kid with good intentions.” In all the legends (and the paintings in Asgard) he’s super buff, but in reality he’s kinda scrawny.

Gogo/Black Widow - She just fit; fast, efficient, ruthless, feminine, badass as hell. Also I did not realize how hot Widow’s outfit is in AoU until I tried drawing it…light up Tron lights HELL YEAH

Wasabi/Hawkeye - This sounds horrible, but it’s who’s left. Let it be known, I absolutely love Wasabi as a character, but I found he didn’t line up too well with any of the Avengers; if anything, Coulson or somebody. I thought about making him Bruce, but I wanted someone noticeably non-hulky in body to be the Hulk. And between him and Gogo, I thought Gogo made the better Widow. So we get him with unfortunately under appreciated Clint. It’s okay, I think Clint has one of the coolest costumes in the movie anyway ^ ^;
