Description Doodled this during Maths. I can't seem to decide whether I prefer drawing manly/actually looks the least bit male!Cloud, or ridiculously effeminate!Cloud XDD;

Oh God please don't criticise the rifle *____*
I had absolutely no reference since I was drawing in class, and I have no knowledge whatsoever of guns. Luckily I had my good buddy ~invisibleshadowgirl about, who knows a fair bit about them - otherwise it seriously would have been a rectangle and nothing more. 8D;

Hoho! Cloud's fine and fabulous figure lends itself quite nicely to these girly positions XDD

And duuude, no way. You saw how badly I draw guns when I'm left to my own devices ;w; <33

Wow. I really can't see anything wrong with the gun. Really. I just-- dorrh.

X3 Cloud actually suits that pose.

Whee, thank you! <3
XDD I had these little boys sitting with me who think Cloud is their super-manly hero, and they were all upset that I gave him such a girly pose X3

Strangely enough, it doesn't look much your style. owo;
Girly Cloud ftw! He's got some great hips there, and his stance. Those hands are amazing! And his expression! *o*
Great light colouring, too.

8Db I've been trying out a whole bunch of different styles lately! Plus I took a portrait-drawing class last week, which kind of changed how I draw faces XDD

And thank you! The hands were lots of fun - the whole picture came from the idea of somebody holding a rifle in that kind of totally unprofessional, what-am-I-supposed-to-do-with-this way XDD
(The little boys sitting next to me were enraged that I gave him such womanly hips, lmao!)

Thankies mucho! <333

Omg nice!!
That's really awesome. I'm kinda jealous you get to take such a class! xD
I do hope you post the results up. <3

Ahaha! That's so him. :'D
Well.. not really. xDD

It was actually a kinda one-off thing at life drawing :'D
Really helpful, too - finally I can stop just guessing the positions of bits on the face X'D And I can actually ref from life and break it down into shapes I understand now. Awesome stuff. <33
I've got one more class and then a five-hour weekend marathon - so after that I'm gonna take the best from my life drawing and post it all 8DD

Tee hee! Well not really at all, you're right - there's a bit in Crisis Core where Zack kills a bunch of monsters and turns around looking all proud... then another leaps at him from behind. And Cloud just shoots that son of a mother in the face ;D

Yeah, thanks to my life drawing classes, I can now draw some very lovely jubbly chubbler ladies. c:
I can't waaaaait! *dances*

Okay, now I'm really intrigued.

snailtamer In reply to BritishMuffin [2009-02-08 18:42:20 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, awesome!!
I've had the same model for every class - she's a middle-aged lady, incredibly skinny. Very nice too; I chat to her after class is over :>

8DD See, basically limit breaks are triggered by cool things Zack remembers seeing other people do <33

I have a plan to draw some of them at some point, so you can see ;D Especially Aeris' one - Zack puts his hands together and starts praying and all these flowers bloom around him! asdf so pretty~~ *gushes too much*

BritishMuffin In reply to snailtamer [2009-02-08 18:56:04 +0000 UTC]

Ohhh lucky! I'd love to try a skinny model for once.
Hehe, they're nice to chat to eh?
I wonder how they sit still for so long..

Amazing. *w*
Does it have any of the original limits or are they all brand new and shiny? o3o

We should swap! 8DD
Hee hee, well - one time my teacher wanted the model to pose propped up on lots of different chairs and boxes for a longer session. About a minute in, she kind of toppled off and said, "this is silly, I can't do that!" XD;;

I haven't seen all of them yet so I can't say, but I've heard there's a version of the Omnislash in there *w* As well as a Chocobo attack that's kind of like the Choco/Mog summon in the original <33

Then again, our models, they all move around a bit and it's annoying. x_x

Waaaah Choco mog! *o* <333

hellohallo [2009-02-07 02:04:38 +0000 UTC]

No worries; to my highly untrained eye, the rifle has passed the test.

I love how he's so reluctant to take action. Plus the stitched collar and cuffs which are ADORABLE

Looks like a good rifle to me! I couldn't even model a gun in Maya with a reference right in front of me! Though modeling is quite different from drawing... but I doubt I could draw a gun either. Hehe *sigh*

I love the soft color palette!

snailtamer In reply to hand-made-city [2009-02-08 15:19:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh jeez, trying to draw guns from reference does my head in. So many weird little lines and grooves... @____@

I've tried some basic modelling in Autodesk Inventor before, so I can imagine it'd be a nightmare. You're brave for even trying XD

And thank you~! :'D

And thanks! But gosh, they are bloody difficult to get to grips with - even with reference *____*

lmao! He's meant to look kind of antsy and awkward, so I guess that'd be about right too XDD
