The quote I have chosen is “Cause I’m with you ’til the end of the line” in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. It is an important quote as it was first said by Bucky before he was turned into the Winter Soldier (one of the antagonist of the movie) then repeated by Captain America himself when he was trying to/succeeded in getting Bucky back to his senses (he was brainwashed).

I started conceptualising with a line and two men dangling off a line and got this rather literal representation.

Then considering the context of the show, I decided to make the line a vertical one and thought of the American flag that has stripes too.

At this point in time, I haven’t realised that I’ve read the brief wrongly (oops) and didn’t consider the historical context/retroness of this piece.

Hence, I changed the people into WW2/WW1 men as Captain A first begun in WW (before he froze and woke up in our world).

One of the reviews I’ve gotten was that I needed to differentiate Capt A and one of the ideas prof offered was to let the American flag bleed through him. I decided to add him into part of the flag instead and he ended up in a quite solemn/elegant (???) position that I saw fit for his character.

After some research and watching the end credits of Captain America, I decided to make this model after a propaganda poster that shall be its historical vocabulary.

I then contained the flag within a fist as fists are a symbol of violence and power that represents war, the setting the movie is set in.

I added in planes as propaganda posters often have airplanes as well as the end credits of captain America (see above^^)

After consultation, I received feedback that the planes are too huge and the white stripes separating the fingers are too bold.

Hence, I made the white patchy, enlarged the fists, made the planes smaller and enlarged the two men which is my focal point.

And TADA thats the final one!
