“Ex-Soldier” Sketchbook & Digital, 2019

Cloud Strife is probably the first character that showed me that a protagonist could be multi-dimensional. It changed my way of thinking about how a story could be told and spoke to the idea that there could be shades of grey within a character struggling to be a hero. He wasn’t the first to ever do this by far, but it was pivotal for me in that it was the first time I had ever come across it.

This piece is obviously in anticipation for the FFVII-Remake release coming in March, but this was a special piece for me because it’s one of my top three favorite characters of all time and I’m glad I had the excuse to do this one. From humble beginnings to one of the most recognized figures in the Final Fantasy compendium, if not video games as a whole. I’m still beyond stoked to see what the first installment has to offer up!
