Drawing of Cloud Strife

[@deineteddy]

I have had over 13 years of practicing in drawing; and you have had only five; and yet you draw the most beautiful, crisp and clear drawing that I have ever seen. My art can't match up to yours. You truly are gifted.

[@AngelxFiend]

-cries- Watching this makes me feel so talentless! -sobs- But its so beautiful! Very detailed. Simply amazing.

[@superbiondo82]

OMG there are no words to describe it I can only say, fantastic, wonderful, awesome that you'll never see more perfect a design like that in my life.Good, good and still good!

[@hiromiizumi8532]

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! IT LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM!!!! IT EVEN LOOKS ANIMATED!!! THE WAY YOU DID THE SHADOWS!!! AND HIS EYES AND!!! AND!!!! AND EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!

[@Hunter9347]

Jesus! I just checked your deviant art out and my jaw literally dropped to the floor! I can't believe your talent! You could sell your stuff! Awesome job!

[@randomkitty2555]

Amazing. First I was confused when you started drawing those tiny hearts and then when you finally added the tones and it was incredible. Really cool!

[@DarkLady0801]

I cried when I watched this. It's amazing. I wish I had such amazing talent as you.

[@AnimeAngel88]

Omg.... my Cloud fan-ness is humbled by your skill. Your amazing. just... wow... absolutely amazing.

[@kinjablackrose]

Amazing use of texture! I still can't get used to how wonderfully neat and softly shaded your work is, such a time consuming process, as a fellow -cough- learning -cough- artist I can easily say the results are more than satisfactory! :)

[@thedarkdragoon8349]

Artists like you always give so much inspiration. Thank you!

[@Batman316]

That shading is mind-blowing, very very impressive

[@D17rulez]

Thank you very much for your lovely comment! I'm 20 years old and started drawing realism when I was 15.

[@kittykat157937]

Wow that is TRULY a masterpiece! You must have tremendous patience, it is really something. I was awe-struck watching :3

[@leticiarodrigues2937]

this video is still amazing after 12 years... i remember it was a challenge to reproduce something similar so i watched and rewatched this video to make the same character at that time, the first version was horrible but on the second try i did my best and i did it arrive at the desired result. Thank you for sharing this video, it gave me knowledge and practices that were fixed in my 13/14 years and helped me a lot in my work until today :D

[@ihart06music]

really great talent you do have!!.. people that have hands like you are really gifted.. i wish i could draw as good as you.. love your work..

[@predben]

wow, that seems so simple yet most extremely effective!!

[@sypherianlp]

I haven't seen this in forever but it's still relevant especially right now as I do this chord effect for a shirt, and your still awesome!

[@sorathunderknight]

WOW.......I'm fricking stunned you did that, and had the patients for it:o

[@Zebnemmm]

Thank you! I never thought thousands of hearts made up one sweater! ^^

[@xmt24o]

speechless...cool dat u draw ff and ac characters. Really admire these and ur playing a real role model for me. :)

[@EBCchannel]

You are really really excellent. Even though I'm quite good at sketching I can't match against your drawing. I really want to be as good as you. Also your drawing amazes me, even though I don't get amazed much with most other drawings. You inspire me most.

[@WhyDodo]

You must be an expert at drawing hearts. :P But honestly, that is amazing. Everything you draw looks like a photo. That requires a lot of detail, attention, and patience! You are quite the role model. :)

[@alexandralouise1761]

[@GaberaStraight]

[@Tayate11]

F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S you make it look so easy!!!!

[@xAngelxofxDreamsx]

omg you're amazing! You inspired me to draw cloud again (gave up the first time) and i was wondering if you had any tips for the skin and hair. (they almost look like they have colour in them)

[@claraborgesbr]

Thank you so much for that... I'm so astonished... Loved the way you mixed AC scenes with the drawing... And I was really looking forward for some video to teach us to draw that shirt... Had a problem with that... But also, could you, please, give us tips on the metal parts? And his hair? Please? :)

[@alburaka]

[@kaskeloot]

Omg! You are sooo awesome- and the draw is fantastic. How old are you btw? I mean.. You are so.. GAAH AWESOMEE!! XD Best Cloud draw I ever seen, congrats ^^

[@josh2alterak]

well there is a short anime either before or after advent children but he is the main character in most ffs after advent children but he isnt manga or anime its sorta hard to say what cloud actuall style of drawing is because it is digital but there is also a sort of manga/anime style to it

[@Ansem10000]

prachtig:) ook mooi om te zien dat er nog mensen zijn die nog zoveel geduld hebben :D 5 sterren!

[@SelasNight]

lol when i tried to draw cloud's shirt i flipped out b/c the patterns took so long. xD and i was impatient. great artwork btw

[@itachiLOVER4lifeX]

This is absolutely amazing. I'm 15 and just started Realism. My shading and gray scale is nothing compared to how you work.. Your skills are indeed, amazing ;D I'm very curious to how you did his shoulder pad on his left shoulder The detail on that looks tough D: Would you recommend those pencils for a gray scale drawing?

[@zuhrymousa12345]

[@D17rulez]

@FFXFan47 Please don't say that! Never give up your hope and skills! If people at your school say that you're a great artist, then you ARE a great artist and have some fantastic talent! Everybody is able to learn these things, but not if you give up. Just keep practicing, keep learning from other artists and then I'm sure you're able to reach this level ^^ Please never quit with your amazing talent. You must know that I drew like crap 6 years ago ;D

[@megavivi]
