Yes it can! – this jacket is totally based off of jackets that actually existed/were made and worn by members of the armed forces! I think it was mostly WWII flight jackets, but I could be wrong there. Example!:
I swear I’ve seen ones with the rifles on like in the art, but fuck if I can find one now.
what i’m getting at here, though, is that you can totally headcanon the howlies having coats like that/buck and steve making coats like that for themselves in the modern era/making one for cosplay because fuck yeah reasonable plausibility
THEY ABSOLUTELY ARE RIFLES, AND Y’ALL ABSOLUTELY GOT IT RIGHT I WAS GOING FOR A WWII TROPHY JACKET FEEL
Bucky loves his training but he loves Steve too and Steve always knows how to give Bucky some energy should he need it while Bucky is happy to provide poses for his talented and cheeky little guy. Supportive boyfriends!
Please do not remove the art credit or repost. (Not here, not anywhere).
Commission drawn by myrty-mc who I asked for some ballet Bucky and loving Steve in her amazing style and WOW ISN’T IT PRETTY OOMMGG!
Artist Daniel Kamarudin
imagines a Marvel universe where the technology has been stripped out,
replaced with high fantasy elements of sword and sorcery. Instead of
being genius billionaire playboy, Tony Stark becomes a powerful
sorcerer. Ultron is transformed into undead threat. Black Widow trades
in her catsuit for assassin leathers, and Hulk engraves berserker runes
on his body. The rest of the gang get eerily accurate makeovers as well.
