Costume: Cloud Strife - AC (version 2)
Category: Videogame based Movie - Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children / Kingdom Hearts II
Status: 100%
Worn At: Katsucon 2006, AnimeNEXT 2006, Otakon 2006, Nekocon 2008
Future Appearances: none - parts need to be remade yet again
Awards: Best of Saturday Journeyman (Kingdom Hearts group) at AnimeNEXT '06
Notes: This is the revamped version of my original AC costume. So much of it has been fixed/redone that I decided it's pretty much a separate costume. I made the First Tsugari to replace the Buster (with spots tape for the KH2 version), redid the shoulder armor out of paper clay, fixed the "skirt" piece, added pockets and belts to the pants, made the sword holster, and my friend Stef made me the new wig.
