Fandom

Different interpretations of the same pairing[1]

Facecanons

Since the characters' faces are never shown in canon, fans tend to rely on bits and pieces of information provided by the canon to recreate what the characters might look like behind their helmets, which leads to different facecanons.

There is visual confirmation in canon that Maine has a shaved head and it's suggested that Washington may have blond hair, but everything else is up to the fans' imagination. The resulting interpretations tend to be different but still recognizable.
