All these portraits I've been rattling out with markers and I only just realised that…
Elizabeth Olsen
I’m back onto putting my Avengers team together. Next up is Elizabeth Olsen as the Scarlet Witch. The Avengers aren’t the Avengers without a female member.
Just like with everyone else in the team so far, there are character-related colours in the skintones. Today it’s red and pink. The red robes along the top of the forehead and down the sides and some of the red marks on the wall at the back and in the hair are meant to hint at the headgear that the Scarlet Witch used to wear (and probably continues to wear) in the comics. I’m still not sure whether it’s too subtle or not subtle enough.
It’s one of the better likenesses in the Avengers collection so far (not that that’s saying much) and fits in with the rest of the collection. I should have quit earlier though – at one point the shape of the head was much better and there was a genuine likeness there. For now, though, she’s not for sale.
