Description
My first portrait done this new year
. It's a drawing of Cloud, because I like him a lot and this picture's so awesome so I had to draw it. I skipped the sword part though, I thought it would mess up the drawing.Dear God, the hair took me ages!!!
I spent like.. 10 hours on the hair, maybe more? I definitely like how it came out, so I guess it was worth it. 
I used mechanical pencils only (my basic equipment: 4H, 2H, HB, 2B and 3B 0.5) except for the vest. Used a little 2B and 3B on that part.
The whole drawing took me approx 25 hours. I'm getting slower.. Next project's probably gonna be a tutorial (aside from the digital drawing).
Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy: Advent Children) belongs to Square-Enix
P.S.: Aren't you getting tired of all the FF drawings yet?

10 hours on the hair? Wow. I sure wish I had the patience enough to do that. This is, like, my fourth comment on your art. I can't help it; you're amazing!

Aww thank you
Hmm yeah screenshots often loose their details. I believe the reference picture wasn't really a screenshot, but more some sort of promo picture.

Thank you for mentioning the clothing too. That small part of the vest took me about 4 hours (in a row, lol, very exhausting).

you bet! I'm working on a Rinoa Heartily realism piece and her clothes will probably take the same amount of time, if not more. So I wanted to express my adoration of detailed clothing

Cloud's my fave! In the game, in the movie and of your pictures <3 You've done such n awesome job with this one^^ Love it

Thank you very much dear 
I think Cloud was way more fun in the game than in the movie. He was so sad-ish all the time! And in the game he's so funny, like in that play at the Gold Saucer!

Yeah, he was really sad and pretty quiet and thoughful. But I still really like him
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He looks so pretty 
Oh yeah I still do like him in the movie too. I just prefer his personality in the game better.

One of the best Cloud Stifes I have seen since I saw AC, it makes me all warm and fuzzy in side

Aww thank you!! Cloud rocks my socks

I loved Cloud in FFVII but in AC he was kind of Emoish, but still one of the greatest fighters ever.

He really was way more fun in the game. They should have made him ride a Chocobo in the movie haha. That would have been way awesome!

errrr....
is that a good sign?

Nice job
But i think you put his shoulder Way too high...
it looks kinda like he's shrugging.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks
Hmmm yeah well actually he's holding a swords which leans on his shoulder (don't ask me how he does that without cutting off his arm, I honestly have no idea), so his shoulder's higher than usual. I didn't want to change that though, so I drew it like it was shown on the reference picture but without the sword.

if i asked reeeeealllllllyy nicely would you make a tutorial on drawing lips?

But Yes, the hair is rather amazing. FFVII for life

Thanks!!!
Haha you don't have to ask me, because I was planning to do one anyway, as well as an ear tutorial. But I need to draw some other things first for an art gallery, as well as some personal things which will end up in my gallery soon. You just gotta be patience a little longer
And FF kicks ass!
