Another pair of Marvel Zombies’ Wimminz – this time it’s Pepper Potts and sweet old, doting Aunt May. I’m aware of Pepper from the comics, but most of my familiarity with her comes from Gwyneth Paltrow’s depiction throughout the MCU films. I painted the model pretty much based on her generic look on the card, down to the strawberry-blonde hair and the rather innocuous briefcase that she’s holding. No doubt full of files, papers and pens. Pretty straightforward, really, and I’m still working on my highlighting of black clothing since I don’t want the highlights of her dark clothing to be noticible without making it look like she’s wearing a shiny PVC skirt.
Aunt May on the other hand was a whole lot more work. Her skirt is on it’s third repaint, since the first iteration was too pink, then too purple, and finally I settled on this shade of attempted-lavender. Damn, the purple spectrum of colours can be tricky! This appears to be the frail, doting, comic version of May, as opposed to the matriarchal overseer of the Spider-Verse or the younger, MILFy, go-getter of later MCU depictions. The pose really sells the personality here, I think.
Anyway, we’re almost at the end of my FeMarch models – aka “I failed at getting them finished in time for Fembruary”. Hopefully Alex forgives me when he gets back to posting! 😉
