Nero and Nanashi go to the Garlean coffee shop one fateful day

"Hero, you're finally awake. I've been at work since the wee hours. Perhaps now we can finally get something done around here. What? Is something wrong?"

So. Nero's Ironworks uniform seriously sucks. I hate it. One day it occurred to me, with a nudge from @trysta-rider, that I could probably design him something better to wear. Something more suited to his personality. Something cooler. Something sexier.

The foundation is the Scaevan Striking set. (Because seriously why isn't he wearing his own gear?) The pants and boots are just basic recolors. The top is a mashup of several pieces I designed and made myself. It's not perfect but I'm proud of it. I also replaced his basic Shaded Spectacles, which I have a love hate relationship with, for Tinted Sunglasses which come in a variety of colors. The idea being that he designed them himself and they are color changing based on environment and function. Though they don't always work properly.

I do plan on releasing this mashup sometime soon after I address a few small issues. So anyone can upgrade their Nero or simply dress like the most accomplished Magitek Engineer in the world.

ahh thinking about my men again… neros gotta have the softest nicest curly wispy hair and its GOTTA fall in his face when its not styled and he probably looks so cuuuute… he definitely puts a lot of product in his hair and has a 10 step washing routine. jessie had to buy a bigger boiler just for his hot water usage(projecting)

i think cid has coarser hair but he has layers your can card their fingers through. he struggles more with self care(type of guy to use 15 in 1 shampoo) his hair would smell like ceruleum and engine oil.. i think its the perfect texture to put little braids in too!!! i think when cid’s hair is fresh clean its a little wavier around his face, but it is very rarely fresh clean lol. it means your wol gets to wash it for himmmm ^_^
