Excellent, Andrew :D Thanks a lot! I'll make sure to grab'em :)

Just a wild thought that crossed my mind - Are you going to try and make a 'Marvel Villains' version also? Could look sweet - and You'd get to use the Hulk again! :)

Off the top of my head - Venom, Hulk, The Abomination, Sandman in the bg, Kingpin, Deadpool, Sabretooth, Green Goblin flying in for the kill.... :drool:

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Andrew's theme here is for Avengers and the marvel studios movie or Spider-man and the X-Men would be in the cover. It would make sense that a villians cover would be from the movies of the guys on his cover...

Looks great Kernie!
How about rotating Cap a degree or so clockwise? Would lessen the 'contact' between his shoulder and Iron Man's hand, and set his head neatly in the centre of the gap between Thor's head and Iron Man's hand.
Only a tiny adjustment; I realise how many different elements you have to consider.

It's a cool thought, but all but one (maybe two) of those villains aren't part of the "Marvel Cinematic Universe." This cover is only for the movies that share the same continuity and lead up to Avengers: Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, and Captain America.

Of the villains you mentioned, only Abomination would apply (I probably wouldn't reuse Hulk). I like your idea, and it probably would be cool, but I'm sticking to only those films mentioned above, as they all crossover with each other.

I'm pondering some sort of "villain" collage for the back cover of this Avengers collection... :chin: :chin:

Abomination, Loki and his troops, Red Skull and Hydra soldiers, Whiplash...and what's his name the villain in Iron Man in the Battle Armor? ;) :whistle:

Sounds like it could be a fun line-up... maybe even some Frost Giants, Justin Hammer, Arnim Zola, and Thunderbolt Ross.

Can anyone help me with some good promo pics of them? Or better yet... some layered poster that I can pull some transparent PNG's from? Just trying to think ahead... :D

I'd also like to incorporate some "S.H.I.E.L.D. Data Vault" stuff into the cover, kind of like the Cerebro text details that I included on my X-Men: First Class cover... :chin: :chin:

@ jwshaw... I rotated Cap's upper body about 2 degrees to the right to make it fit that gap better. It will be included in the next update...

Still thinking... :D :D :D

Any ideas on other things to do to this front cover?

This is looking really cook kernie!

Do you have any plans to add something to the rubble in the front? I think even a tag line would help that area at the bottom!

This is fantastic Kernie!!!! I just peeked in a bit and I can't believe how cool this is :) One thing thats minor is that it looks like Thor is being covered up a bit, would you think of moving him out a bit so he's not covered up so much?

Sorry I missed this post first time around... I tried shifting Thor out slightly and moved Jane closer to him. Rotated Cap's upper body again to accommodate the Thor adjustment... it will be present on the next update... :D :D

Yeah, I'll add something down there... right now I'm just focusing on the keyart... not too sure about other elements of the cover, like the TT, tagline, etc.

BTW, does anyone have a VECTOR version of the Avengers TT? Jpeg at MovieGrafix hooked me up with some great PSD's of the TT, but I'd really like a vector version so that I can use the paths to make my own 3D version of the TT.

EDIT... here's another update with slight tweaks. Going out for a while... will revisit this later tonight... :D :D :D
