Again, most of these had already been posted on tumblr, so this post will be open.
These concepts were for the second section of the story, aka everything after the nightmare sequence (oldest concept is actually for the previous scene). A few key things had been decided from the get-go, like the fact Buck was gonna be shirtless and shoeless. Everything else was decided here!
1. At first I didn't know what to give him for a jacket. The first idea was a random blanket, but it was a bit too messy and hard to draw consistently- Steve's jacket added an extra punch, so I ended up going with that.
2. For the longest time, Bucky had love-bites all over his neck, but gosh it was too hard to keep track of that! Also come on, dude, Peggy's like, right there.
3. Unlike Steve, the jacket's collar isn't up when Buck's wearing it. This is deliberate, to keep the idea of Steve being uncomfortable/trying to cover himself as much as possible, while Bucko's just, out of hecks to give at this point.
4. The dog-tags were a very, very late addition. I'm still unsure if adding tham at all was a good idea, as it seems a bit overkill.
5. Floppy hair, because that's who I am as a person.
