New Project: Bombing Mission!

[Klownboy]

coming along nicely, can't wait to see this in game ^^

[dragowulf]

I don't like the face at all.

[ScottMcTony]

The face looks terribly.. action figure.

[Kudistos Megistos]

I like the face

Oh, wait, I've already said that.

Never mind. If you want to please the people who watched AC and played CC before they played FF7, you can make Cloud look like a 12-year-old. With a tear streaming down his cheek. Perhaps you can make him wear 9001 belts and have some scars on his wrists from where he has cut himself. Maybe he can have a speech bubble saying "my heart is nothing but a black abyss", and you can change the sound of his sword attack to the chorus from Linkin Park's "Crawling". That ought to keep people happy.

Or just keep on doing what you're doing; he looks great ATM. I'd say he could do with being a little paler, since his tan makes him look a bit more KH than FF7, but besides that it's damn near perfect.

[Millenia]

Not happy with it myself as I am no character artist but it's the best I can do. Better than nothing, I guess

[MADDOGG]

its better than what i can do, and what other people can do. it great better than the original.   

[Timu Sumisu]

i think the oddity of the face is in the nose, it comes out too much. flatten the mesh just a tad, and reduce the shading on the upper part.

[Mr. Amazing]

I quite like the new Cloud model, it is faithful to the original and gives Cloud that tougher appearance he lacks in the newer versions of him. A couple of suggestions though, I think it might look better if his lips were shrunk a little because at the moment they look huge while every depiction i can find has Cloud with almost no lips at all. I don't know if this is the angle but most of the pictures have his face a little wider than this and his eyes a little further apart

[ScottMcTony]

Gad damn the colouring of the face looks like polished plastic to me, maybe if there was slightly more detail, like, less perfect skin.
I called it action figurey before but really it's just, I would expect that to stand out while playing so man I, well, am bothered.

I am very impressed with the work on the clothing so far though.

[Nightmarish]

I still prefer the looks of APZ Cloud, but this is still a WIP anyway.

[pyrozen]

cloud is looking stunning! I agree that his skin looks somehow...off? I can't quite put my finger on it, but IMHO, pull his cheeck bones back a little bit towards the back of the head. His face looks somewhat flat ATM, and sinking in his cheeks and give more "angle" to his cheecks should give a more natural face.

Just my opinion, and it appears you can get along just fine without it! keep it up!

It's the tan. He looks like he has been under a sunbed

I think that character description would appeal to all the ff7 emo goth fan boys out tharr. =D And damn... I really should have copyrighted that dark abyss thing before you started spamming it. *shakes fist*

On a moar srs note, I agree that the face looks kinda weird, and I'd say that it's cuz the lips are too big, or maybe the frown is a little off. O_O *shrugs* The rest looks awesome though! *thumbs up*

And uh... maybe he's tan because he just came from costa del sol, eh?

[Kudistos Megistos]

But this is the bombing mission, and he's just spent five years in a tube

[sl1982]

Some one dumped a little fake tan into the tube.

[Kudistos Megistos]

Maybe that's what the experiments were for

[pyrozen]

so thats how they figured out how to create spray tanning booths....those wern't incubators at all! And jenova was a skin cancer survivor...holy crap...its all coming together...

[Chocobo_Girl]

That does it, I'm never going to get a tan at a salon, ever. They'll just inject jenova cells in me. T_T (not that I ever considered it, I like fair skin =P)

[Salk]

Isn't the upper body too short and especially too narrow compared to the legs? 

[Chocobo_Girl]

His belt is pretty high up, which explains his upper body looking short. Also his pants are very baggy, which makes his bottom half wider:

My model is completely to scale with the original

[otaviofc]

It looks great imho and follows the original scheme :] Thumbs up for this model instead of a faggy emo AC Cloud haha

[Timber]

That's looking really good!

His shoulder pad is way too rusty looking though imo, and as others have said, his face could use a lil tweaking.

[nikfrozty]

That looks so awesome!! I think the only problem is the texture of Cloud's skin is so strong??

[Nightmarish]

I'd say:
Remove his lips and do some "anime" like mouth, just a line to show he has a mouth. That would be faithful to the original thing i quess. Something like this. As for the nose i would remove its thickness and add, again, something more "anime" more like the concept art. Thick noses kinda look bad, ending like this.
