Description

I’m not going to even pretend that I’m not in love with the visual style of “What If…?”

However, I also know my limitations, so instead of trying to imitate the WI style, I’ll just draw the characters in my own. So here’s Captain Peggy Carter, showing off what you’re up against if you get on her bad side.

(Forgive me if the colors are more awkward than usual – the lighting of the episode made it pretty much impossible to lift accurate colors from it, so I had to get them all from other sources, such as pictures of Haley Atwell or of the Union Jack.)

Thanks for taking a look, and, as always, any comments or critiques are welcome and appreciated.

Disclaimer: I’m red-green colorblind. Because of this, it’s difficult for me to tell similar shades/hues of different colors apart, and, therefore, I need to work with very limited palettes when I color pieces. For shading and highlights, I’ll start with a gray base and lighten or darken shades from there, and then add a color overlay (and, for some skin tones, attempt to add a blue overlay to make it less “hot”). I’ve often been told to be bolder in my highlighting and shading, and I’m trying to be so, but… sometimes it still seems pretty tame. I’m just saying this in case you mentioned I need to do that on a previous piece – I’m not ignoring you, and I appreciate the input. It’s just not very easy for me to implement confidently.
