The events of The Winter Soldier trial told in a series of tweets. Inspired by two amazing mixed-media fics that play with the possibility of what might happen if Bucky was put on trial after the events of CATWS:
– United States v. Barnes by fallingvoices and radialarch

This is more of a re-mix than actual fic illustration, though all credit for the idea and the tweets goes to the respective authors. Stylewise I was going for a mix between actual pictures and courtroom sketches. References used courtesy of Getty Images. And thanks to johanirae for being my art-beta.

Neither of them commented on the picture of them which has now gone viral. When, after the verdict, Mr. Rogers leaped the gate to tug Mr. Barnes down into a kiss, a member of the audience took a photograph of the moment and uploaded it to twitter. The original tweet was swiftly deleted, but copies of the picture continue to circulate and seem unlikely to disappear from the internet. Some people are already calling the picture “a disgrace” and demanding that indecency charges be levied, but others are far happier.
Done for radialarch and nuitdenovembre’s courtroom drama, United States v. Barnes, 617 U.S. 143 (2015). This story is fantastic — the story itself is styled to resemble courtroom transcripts, text messages, news articles, and twitter feeds revolving around the trial of Bucky Barnes for crimes against humanity as the Winter Soldier. radialarch mentioned that it would be awesome if someone tried to do a courtroom sketch of one of the scenes. It wasn’t until I was nearly finished that I realized I should have done the lineart using a marker and pencil brush to make it look more like an authentic courtroom sketch – I’m still very rusty at this whole art thing. You should have seen the dust on my Wacom 😦
Gah I wish this could be better. It doesn’t do the fic justice. Please go read it!
