How to draw Captain America? Teach children how to draw Captain America.
I can give you a comprehensive answer to this question. Because I do original painting design.
1. First of all, do you have a foundation in painting?
2. If not, if you want to draw a captain well, you must first practice copying. Remember the captain's body size, clothing style, and equipment style. Then when you can draw silently on paper, you can draw in front of children. Learning to draw all starts with copying. Let the children copy your paintings. While painting, explain to the children how to draw the captain (the content explained is the body size, clothing style, equipment style, etc.)
3. If you have a foundation in painting, you can skip the step of copying. , remember the captain's body size, clothing style, and equipment style. Then you can draw in front of the children.
4. If you have a good foundation in human body painting, you can create your own drawings of captains in any pose for children to see.
5. If the basic skills are not strong. Remember a few more postures and practice them until they are easy to draw before teaching them to children. Otherwise, you will only be able to draw one posture and it will feel very monotonous.
6. Thank you for watching.
The creative background of Captain America
The most “main theme” superhero in American comics is none other than Captain America.
He uses the name of his country as his title, his uniform is red, white and blue with bright stars; a shield of the same color is his weapon. Yes, his birth stemmed from the purpose of patriotism.
In 1941, the Second World War was in full swing on the Eurasian battlefield, but the United States, far across the ocean, had not yet joined the war. Despite this, the anti-fascist voice in its country is becoming stronger and stronger.
In this stormy and troubled time, Timely Comics (later Marvel) launched a patriot and a hero who represents the American spirit-Captain America. March 1941, nine months before the Pearl Harbor attack.
A comic book called "Captain America" ??was published at this time, and a symbol of patriotism and American spirit was born. Wearing a red, white, and blue star-striped costume and holding a shield, this was Captain America's first appearance.
Screenwriter Joe Simon and artist Jack Kirby collaborated to create such an American icon. He even beat Hitler with an angry iron fist on the cover of the first issue! (The movie version changed this scene into a performance and faithfully reproduced the comic on the original cover) Captain America never had a trial run in other publications, but directly launched an independent comic, which was unusual at the time - Timely ics Boss Martin Goodman had just seen the draft of this character and concluded that he would be a great success, so he immediately gave Captain America the opportunity to perform independently.
Facts have proved that this is completely correct, and the Captain America comics, full of Americanism, have become very popular after their launch. Captain America is a native American.
His name is Steve Rogers. He was originally a thin young man. In order to serve the country, he volunteered to participate in the military's secret program and was injected with a secret serum to become a super soldier. . However, at this moment, Nazi spies killed the professor who invented the drug formula, making Steve the only super soldier.
Under the arrangement of the Communist Party, he disguised himself as an ordinary soldier and fought against the enemy in the army. Captain America is not a born hero, nor is he immortal (which is why he needs a shield for protection). He is just stronger, braver, and resourceful than ordinary people.
He faced the Axis enemies of Germany, Italy and Japan, taking the theme of the comics to a new level. When the United States officially announced its participation in the war, Captain America spared no effort to participate in the war.
These comic books depicting heroes fighting the enemy were also sent to the front lines together with supplies, becoming spiritual food for the army and inspiring soldiers to fight bravely. Although many works similar to Captain America's comic style appeared during the same period, Captain America was the most prominent and popular superhero among many similar works and during World War II.
With the end of the war, Captain America seemed to have lost the goal of fighting. He faded out of the comic book world and didn't really return to comics until the 1960s.
But the social situation is different from the world of good and evil that he is familiar with, and patriotism has also been given a different meaning. Although he fought in many different battles, this true American hero is still remembered for his deeds against his fascist enemies.
Comic plot of Captain America
Steve Rogers was born in Brooklyn, New York on July 4, 1918. He is a descendant of Irish immigrants and was originally an ordinary art student.
Born in a slum, he was thin and wanted to join the army to serve the country during the war, but was rejected because of his physical condition. At that time, the U.S. military was carrying out a super soldier program (Operation: Rebirth), which involved injecting drugs into ordinary people's bodies to turn them into super soldiers.
As the first and only successful case during World War II, Steve became Captain America. Later, the plan continued to create a black Captain America, Isaiah Bradley.
In the X-Men story written by Grant Morrison, this experimental plan is even connected to Wolverine’s life experience. Captain America is the first-generation product of the Weapon Plus series, Weapon I, and the tenth-generation Weapon It turns out Weapon X is Wolverine. During World War II, Steve was active on the battlefield. His main enemy was the Nazi German terrorist leader Red Skull.
If Captain America represents the spirit and beliefs that the United States insists on, then his enemies are all opposite concepts, such as the Nazi Party, the Neo-Nazi Party, anarchism and terrorist organizations. Initially, the shield Steve held was in the shape of a kite, but later it was replaced with a buckler, which became a defensive and offensive weapon.
In the army, Steve met James Buchanan Barnes, who knew his identity, so Steve made him his assistant, nicknamed Bucky (actually Bucky was the assistant arranged by the military for Steve). In 1945, Steve and Bucky disappeared when their plane exploded during a dogfight with Baron Zemo.
The bodies of the two men were not found. Steve himself never wanted to be a hero, and when he first became Captain America, he had no idea how significant this role would be to others.
Later, this role has become a symbol of the American spirit, and at the same time, it has gradually become a bearer of increasingly heavy responsibilities. After Steve and Bucky disappeared, in order to prevent Captain America, the morale-boosting spiritual symbol from disappearing, President Truman chose William Naslund, a superhero code-named Spirit of '76, to take over the role of Captain America, and Fred Davis took on the role of the second Bucky. Fight the Nazis and Japan.
However, Naslund was unfortunately killed in an operation to prevent the assassination of President Kennedy the following year. The successor was Jeff Mace, who participated in the same operation. He was originally a journalist and was inspired by the image of Captain America to become a superhero "Patriot". He took over as the third Captain America in 1946 and resigned in 1949.
During his tenure as Captain America, the third Bucky was injured, and his girlfriend Betsy Ross took over as his deputy. After leaving office, he married Betsy.
William Burnside, the fourth Captain America, is also known as "Captain America in the 1950s". He has been an avid fan of Captain America since he was a child. In order to become Captain America, he was injected with the super soldier serum. He even had plastic surgery to look like Steve and even changed his name to Steve Rogers.
However, the serum he was injected with was unfortunately a defective version. In addition, he was not exposed to radiation to stabilize the serum. He was mentally damaged and became extremely violent, eventually doing things that harmed society. behavior and was arrested. In 1964, members of the newly formed Avengers met Prince Namor of Atlantis while searching for the missing Hulk, which triggered the most important event in the history of the Avengers: the return of Captain America.
At the end of World War II, in order to prevent the German super rocket from launching, Steve was thrown into the freezing North Sea and froze in the explosion, but he was still alive. Namor and the Avengers rescued Steve. After he woke up, he realized that it was no longer the 1940s and the world had changed.
The Avengers strongly invited this legendary figure to join, and Steve, who had nowhere to go, had no reason to refuse and became the captain of the Avengers. Because he joined the Avengers, Steve faced more diverse enemies and participated in more stories.
In addition to the Avengers, Steve also has many comrades, such as the first black hero Falcon, old comrade Nick Fury, etc. Steve also joined S.H.I.E.L.D.
Steve believed that he was fighting for the pure American dream, so when Congress wanted him to become a puppet of the Communist Party, he refused, and the Communist Party deprived him of his Captain America identity. During this time, the Communist Party appointed "Super Patriot" John Walker as Captain America.
However, he was framed by the enemy and became insane, and had to hand over the title of Captain America to Steve. After Walker recovered, he was codenamed "U.S. Agent."
"Avengers Disassembled" tells the story of Scarlet Witch (Scarlet Witch) who went crazy after remembering her child and changed reality, causing the tragic death of three Avengers, and the Avengers team was also disbanded. But the Red Skull secretly invaded and launched a prison escape. Steve once again summoned the "New Avengers", which was also the beginning of the fifth series of Captain America.
This series of comics was written by Ed Brubaker, who had just moved from DC to work at Marvel, and illustrated by Steve Epting. The description technique became realistic and slightly nostalgic, and it sold well and was well received. The fifth series tells the story of the Red Skull getting the Cosmic Cube, but he was assassinated at the same time.
The Co***ic Cube is a cube that can change reality, but it requires killing a large number of lives to replenish energy. The person who assassinated the Red Skull was ordered by the former Soviet general Lukin.
Steve went to investigate the matter with his ex-girlfriend and SHIELD agent Sharon Carter, and soon discovered the Red Skull's plan, and the clues turned to Lukin. The third generation Bucky and Jack Monroe were also assassinated by the same person.
Sharon was captured when she went to find Monroe, who turned out to be Bucky who was supposed to be dead for a long time. When Steve and Bucky were fighting Zemo, the plane exploded and the Soviet generals transported Bucky away, but he lost his left arm and lost his memory due to a concussion.
The Soviet Union equipped him with advanced robotic arms and trained him to become a killer, nicknamed the Winter Soldier. When there is no mission, he is placed in a frozen state, and will only be awakened when there is a mission, so he is still very young.
During his time as a killer, he killed Wolverine's Japanese wife.
Steve went to rescue Sharon. A bomb exploded and took away the lives of many people, but it was used to make up for it.
