Discovered on the rewatch

I think every MCU fan needs to know that while the Avengers are squabbling with Fury under the influence of the Scepter, this exchange happens. Only fragments of it are audible, but is preserved on the subtitle track:

Thor: You treat your champions with such mistrust.
Natasha: Are you boys really that naive? SHIELD monitors potential threats.
Bruce: Captain America’s on threat watch?
Natasha: We all are.
Tony: Wait, you’re on that list? Are you above or below angry bees?
Steve: Stark, so help me God, if you make one more wisecrack…
Tony: Threat! Verbal threat! I feel threatened!
Steve: Show some respect.
Tony: Respect what?

Are you above or below angry bees?

Are you above or below angry bees?

This isn’t the age of spies. This is not even the age of heroes. This is the age of miracles; and there’s nothing more horrifying than a miracle.

THESE ARE PAINTINGS. I THOUGHT THEY WERE UBER HIGH RES STILLS BUT. I THINK THEY’RE PAINTINGS?

WAIT WHAT

NO people, they aren’t paintings. They are EDITS. The artist isn’t even trying to cheat or to fool anybody! If you have a look at their blog, it’s in the “edits” category with other…edits (and not paintings or drawings!)

These are screenshots/promo shots that have been edited thanks to a software called Topaz (this one is Topaz Clean if I’m correct). It’s a kind of Photoshop “add on”. It’s used a lot in photography for all kind of renderings. A precise tool of Topaz Clean turns any image into a kind of “digital oil painting”, as you can see above (it’s particularly visible on the Nick Fury one)

Once again, I’m not calling out the artist or anything but Tumblr has turned an edit post tagged “myedits” into a “OMG THESE ARE PAINTINGS!!” post. :/
