Description
A commission for a friend who helped me a lot in my cooking classes.Capt was alot of fun to make with his "A" and wing decals and even more fun to play as I was imitating his moves while another friend was playing him on Marvel v. Capcom 2.
This Avengers reenactment was made completely out of pipe cleaners and editing done by my awesome girlfriend

I love the effect the pipe cleaners have on the blue parts of his outfit; it makes it look like it's ruffling/creasing as he's moving. Great work, and congrats!

As soon as I finish making my Megaman Volnutt, he's gonna blow the head off that guy. >/
Seriously though, this is excellent and I'm curious as to how you constructed the hands. Trying to make hands that are a different color from the main body (especially when the figure only wears short gloves) are a puzzle I repeatedly encounter, such that I handle it in a slightly different way every time. I can think of a couple ways you could have done it here, such as by making his arm skeleton red and letting the ends of it poke out far past the wrists, so the ends of it could be folded back and twisted into fingers.

Lol, we'll see about that >= )
The way I made the was wasn't that special. I actually used a dark brown skeleton; I use unfavorable colors like pink for the skeleton to save colors since its usually covered by wrapping anyways. then I make the different gloves starting with the hands which is just pinching the pipe cleaner making fingers and then I wrap it down from the wrist down.

Aha. That would do it. I've occasionally done that myself because colors like orange are the ones I use the least, but they come in variety packs that I pick up for only one or two colors.
Say, that explains why the limbs of all your figures have that curious coiled look. You're using another color to hide the skeleton's color. I've always wondered about that.
