Hey!

Hope you're well! Things are progressing along pretty nicely, trying to find a balance of the original Final Fantasy 7 concept art and the style I've been painting in recently - I think the forms are coming together pretty well, especially on Cloud's armor and things, but we'll see how things change as I continue to draw everyone and paint things in. But, I'm pretty happy so far, this is very much still a work in progress so part can always alter as the painting is realized more (Aerith btw is very lightly painted so far, her face is gonna change a little bit more as well as the overall render).

One thing I'm happy with overall is the texture - the noise look that I'm getting in the rendering is very satisfying to me, I'm thinking it should end up showing through in the final painting - similar to how the textures read on Char's Zaku II. 

Thanks as always for your support! We're getting very close to me having a computer that can record the screen while I'm painting and get back to the old routine we used to have with that type of process - my current delivery is Nov. 10-17, so hopefully sooner than later!

Dave, Cloud’s inner biceps/triceps anatomy looks really off, other than that, lookin forward to another killer work

Thanks! Yeah, I was going 1:1 with the original concept art, I haven't painted the body just yet so I'll definitely fix everything as I go

So good man. I appreciate that the anatomy is a little wonky but you kept it exact to the original art. Please do an ocarina of time piece!

Nathan Lyttle

This looks so good. Have you worked on this any more?
