Back to 2012, the first Avengers movie has a special place on my memories because -aside to be a great flick-, it was one of the first infographic projects I had the chance to put my hands on in this new stage of my life, living and working on this remote land. This first feature (below), was a practical guide of the characters, their powers and skills presented as an equation, a sum of elements and situations that result into the creation of each Avenger. We also included a time line of the previous installments that paved the way for the 'Avengers:Assemble' movie.

For the second installment we had to raise the bar and we created a project three times bigger than the first one. The Avengers Age of Ultron: Drawing the lines of war infographic, explores the intricate world of the superhero team, explaining their actual status and establishing their connection lines with other characters and certain situations from previous *MCU movies, taking a look on their powers, technology and cool gadgets on the way. Finally, is included a brief glimpse of what's coming for the Avengers and the MCU on the near future... I hope you enjoy it! *Marvel Cinematic Universe

Process After some brainstorm sessions, we decided to play with the inner-triangular shape of the Avengers logo to divide the overall space. I decided a rough character distribution over the layout, based on the amount of interesting information that could be translated into cool graphics of each Avenger (A). To add other layer of difficulty, we decided to play with colored lines that would connect the relationship between characters, artifacts and situations from previous movies. The 'relationship lines' had to run across the already established Avengers logo inner-triangle (B). While I was playing with the design, creating secondary graphics and writing the information, we were working on the main illustrations using different techniques (see below). Once I had some dummy illustrations, the layout was finally established, just waiting for the final pieces (C).
Production time! For this project I decided to avoid the usage of official pictures for the main characters as much as possible to instead produce our own content, different of anything could be published anywhere. For this task, 3D modelling and digital illustration techniques were used to create the Avengers and Ultron. Zbrush, Photoshop, Illustrator and In-design, were the weapons of choice. 3D Models by Hugo A. Sanchez Digital illustrations by Niño Jose Heredia
