Cloud Strife (Here's my plan) (Patreon)

Okay.... So.... It's finally time.... To start planning out my Cloud cosplay *Loud Sweating Intensifies*
I'm extremely nervous about this one. I've been in love with Cloud since I was like 10 (Like every nerd born in the early 90s I guess lmao)

Until a few years ago, I never really considered cosplaying Cloud because he's like… perfect. I hold him on the highest pedestal. I see cloud as like the pinnacle of beauty. He's THE flawless porcelain CG videogame boy. When I first met Ai at a party, we bonded over our love for Zack and Cloud and they managed to talk me drunk ass into cosplaying the two of them. Obviously, once I was sober, I had second thoughts. It's been nearly 3 years and Ai still hasn't let it go, lol! They have reminded me once every month that I promised I would be their Cloud. With the remake around the corner and all of our friends wanting to do a big group for Katsu, it's finally time for me to stop putting off Cloud


Don't get me wrong, I DO want to cosplay him. I love him so much! I'm just…. Insecure. And worried I'm going to be disappointed in how I look. BUT I'm at least gonna give it a try!


I'm going to start with Cloud's wig first so I can do a makeup test and find out if I can pull him off with enough tape and makeup. I was thinking of starting with an Arda Jareth in ash blonde and possibly adding lace to the back hairline. I've never done something like this before and I haven't seen anyone else do it so I'm no sure how good it will look, but I really don't want to do a crunchy false hairline. I'll keep y'all posted on how it goes!

Lastly, I was thinking about whether it would be worth it or not to set a ko-fi goal for Cloud. I'm not on social media anymore so the only people who would know about it are y'all and the few ppl who still cool w my Ko-fi :/ should I bother?
