Description
I was looking through some REALLY old files again when I found this fella.Cloud Strife from FFVII was my first try at coloured pencils 5 years (!!!) ago and was one of my very first submissions posted at deviantART...! I drew it as an x-mas present for my elder brother who introduced me to Final Fantasy VII in 1997. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have drawn any of these Final Fantasy portraits which kind of became my trademark back in 2007.
It's still one of my favourite games and honestly; I prefer the good old designs over the new (Advent Children) ones, although their 3D renders are pretty epic too.
So I decided to fix the original scan and resubmit it. The original file which I posted 5 years ago, can be found here .
Drawn from the original design by Tetsuya Nomura, obviously!
Fun times. I should finish my drawing of Zack AT LAST. DDDDD: *tssk tssk*

Never could get all that into the final fantasy series. Not because of story or characters but because I always got my rear handed to me on a silver platter by even the earliest of bosses. Guess I'll just have to stick to my FPS's and western RPG's.

I love how I see this in my deviations and initially I think "who copy pasted the picture? Oh wait. It's Cataclysm. HOW SHE DO THESE THINGS?!"
<333 Lordy I love your work. And your brother. THANK YOU FOR GETTING HER INTO FINAL FANTASY. >3<

Wow! Great drawing!!
I've never played Final Fantasy, so I'm not familiar with this character.
He looks a bit like Link from the Legend of Zelda series though,
and I am "nuts" over Linky!!

Poor Zack! So neglected. But this Cloud does look awesome. I'm having an extremely difficult time telling it apart from the original art.

ooh wat goed zeg dit
geweldig als je dat soort dingen terug vind
dit ziet er al beter uit dan ik ooit met potloden kan fabriceren, laat staan het niveau dat je nu hebt

Amazing progress indeed! Still remember when I first visited your dA page, after I was recovered from the total epicness of the first pages of your gallery (
And you should totally finish your Zack drawing!
Now I feel like I talk to much so I'll just say, still falling in l...!

Heck yeah!
Final Fantasy VII and VIII rocked my socks! Very few RPG games had me hooked like FF.
I actually have an old drawing of Squall dated back to 2002. lol Feels like forever ago...
