faun-songs:

ive been trying to keep it to myself but no listen

im so tickled by steve and buckys colour schemes(provided by the actors ofc)

steve is all saturation and warmth in most of the shots-warm undertones to his skin, red lips, golden hair and vibrantly blue eyes. he really reminds me of Summer.

bucky is made up of grayish low-saturation colours-pale skin and pale blue-grey eyes, his hair is brown but not a rich hue. part of why the Winter soldier is so terrorising-all his colours are sickly and cold.

and their schemes are the complete opposites of themselves(pre-war i mean)

summer is associated with the peak of life, lushness and health, vigour. it’s also the season of happiness, energy. doesn’t tie well with a gloomy ill teen.

winter is the season of death, illness, decay, cessation. it’s thought in terms of low-key emotions, stillness. quite the opposite of the brimming with health and strength charming pretty boy bucky.

me+colours+symbolism, what did you expect
