Okay, here’s my attempt at a blog post, channeling that down-to-earth, practical vibe:
Alright, so I’ve been diving deep into Cyberpunk 2077 again, and this time, I had a mission: I wanted to make my V look as close to John Wick as freakin’ possible. You know, Keanu Reeves playing Keanu Reeves, but my Keanu Reeves. It was trickier than I thought, but I got there, and man, it’s pretty slick.

The Face
First up, the face. This is where you spend the most time, because, let’s be real, you gotta nail that Keanu look. I started by picking preset face. I fiddled with the jaw, made it a bit stronger, because, you know, John Wick. The eyes were a pain. I went for something that was a bit squinty. Eyebrows, I kept them dark, fairly straight.
- Skin Tone:I Pick a tone that looked good.
- Eyes:The key here is that slightly tired, seen-it-all look. Don’t go too wide-eyed.
- Nose:I make it straight.
- Mouth:make a firm, set mouth.
The Hair
The hair was surprisingly easy. There’s a long, swept-back style that’s almost perfect. Just picked that, made it black. Done. Seriously, that’s all it took for the hair. I think it’s a bit longer.
The Facial Hair
The beard. Gotta have the beard. Luckily, there’s a full beard option that, with a little bit of tweaking with the stubble slider, looked spot-on. Made that black, too. Boom. Instant Baba Yaga.
The Body (and Scars)
I didn’t go crazy on the body. Made V reasonably fit, because, again, John Wick. I did mess around with body. I chose to skip most of the optional stuff.
Clothes
Now, the clothes. This is where you can really have some fun, even though it’s not technically part of character creation. I hunted down a black suit. Black shirt, black tie. The classic John Wick look. It took some searching, but I found vendors selling the right pieces, and man, it completed the whole thing.
Putting It All Together
Once I had all the pieces – the face, the hair, the beard, the body, and the outfit – I spent a good chunk of time just… looking at him. Turning him around in the character creator, checking him out in different lighting. I even took some screenshots to compare to actual John Wick stills. Gotta make sure it’s right, right?

And that’s pretty much it! It’s not perfect, but it’s damn close. Now I can run around Night City as my own version of John Wick, dishing out justice and looking cool as hell while doing it. It’s the little things, you know?
