I like how you imagined your own concepts for these species.

I always wanted to see Husk iterations of the Quarian, the Krogan, and especially the Salarians.

Thank you so much for answering my wishes.

NinjaChicken197 [2012-08-02 21:27:10 +0000 UTC]

Wow I really like doing these.

The Snatcher

The reaper equivalent to a combat engineer. Infected Quarians received the name 'snatcher' When they were observed to be equipped with a strange feature. The left hand, armed with sharp talons for gripping and slashing, can be shot off like a harpoon or a net. The claws then engage on contact, gripping the target (whatever it may be) so that it can be wound back with surprising strength and ferocity. This has been used to catch fleeing civilians or soldiers who have escaped the reapers so that they may be brought back and harvested/turned into a husk.

Other than that, Snatchers are rather fragile, possessing a medium strength shield with very little physical durability. Exposed skin is covered in sores and boils, a freminder of the quarians weak immune system, something the reapers couldn't care less about. Snatchers also (on the right arm) possess a 'reaper counterpart to an omni-tool' a crimson holographic device with two known functions. The first is the repair of any reaper devices or husks that may be broken or defeated on the battlefield, making the Snatcher somewhat of a reaper medic as well. The second, more dangerous function is the ability to fashion a sort of reaper combat drone from pieces of debris such as broken pieces of building or discarded weapons that may be littering the battlefield. Snatchers can create these drones with surprising speed and out of virtually anything, meaning squads can easily be swarmed by dozens if they do not finish the snatcher withina few minutes.

(sorry if I added to much, you left alot to th imagination )

I agree with NinjaChicken197. "Snatcher" works great with this, especially with the acompying explanation. Thumbs Up!

A reaper medic. Protocols would probably call for it to be taken out first.

If you went to the area were Tali is in your ship and Edi will say to Tali that the Quarians could make good soldiers in their ranks. The only way Reapers could get a number of them is if they invade a Flotilla.

quarian have a very weak immune system, because of this live quarians would be able to tolerate the injection of nanomachines, because it would create an extreme alergic reaction, but who knows maybe al quarians husks are made of already dead quarians

Mazder-1X5 In reply to ??? [2012-05-24 12:07:37 +0000 UTC]

Great design, although as a quarian fan I would have to say that the waist/hips thing looks like it kind of doesn't work.
It looks like the upper half is floating with one tube connecting the two and a flimsy one at that. It's a cool looking idea but in all honest it's not very practical and while the Reapers are horrific they're also about practicality as well.

I think that the belly should have just been exposed with some visible tubing along it or going in and out of it, to show that they're exposed from their suit and their augmentations from their suit integration has been affected or altered by the reapers. Yeah the head does that but a midriff like the one I outlined would show it more, and it would be a bit more practical on the battlefield, or would appear so anyway.

Still a fantastic piece and that was the only real gripe I had with it.

Mind you I am a little sad human husks are the least horrifying in ME3...kinda jealous of that, maybe a future plan to make a boss human hus? XD

AndrewRyanArt In reply to Mazder-1X5 [2012-05-24 19:24:23 +0000 UTC]

We know that the Mass Effect universe has pretty advanced anti gravity tech so I pictured the upper torso being half supported/half floating.

Mazder-1X5 In reply to AndrewRyanArt [2012-05-24 22:19:04 +0000 UTC]

Ah.
Well personally I see it more as a problem with functionality myself.
Appears to be able to be knocked off too easily, but that's personal opinion, still a good design and thought though.

AndrewRyanArt In reply to Mazder-1X5 [2012-05-25 00:01:53 +0000 UTC]

That could make it fun though , maybe it's possible to heavy melee them and knock the top half off with an instant kill but it'd be risky to get too close because of the powerful combat drones.

Mazder-1X5 In reply to AndrewRyanArt [2012-05-25 08:21:28 +0000 UTC]

True, mind you a well placed widow shot would also accomplish that too.
In game it was speculated I think that quarians would be more of a support-like character/force, being basically mobile shield generators or something as well as being tech experts.

I, on the other hand, wanted to see more reaperised races in the game, partly to represent the fact that the reapers are invading the entire galaxy and also because I am sure bioware said there would be reaperised husks of ALL races in the game, not just 5 (husks, cannibals, marauders, banshees and brutes).

Bioware needs to hire dune champion and release all of his designs into the game as DLC now!

DaymNotHere [2012-05-22 17:37:01 +0000 UTC]

Great pic, but how is it's upper torso supported by just that spinal cord? or is the blue glow anti-grav?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AndrewRyanArt In reply to DaymNotHere [2012-05-22 17:51:30 +0000 UTC]

Well if you think about it every time you've got a living skeleton enemy in amovie like jason and the argonauts it's essentially the same situation but I did toy with the idea of getting rid of the spinal cord entirely, maybe it's assisted by added anti gravity tech? I see what you mean though, it does look funny but I wasn't thinking about it too seriously, this stuff is just for fun.

DaymNotHere In reply to AndrewRyanArt [2012-05-22 20:36:11 +0000 UTC]

Actually now that I think about it, if it was in ME3 it would make a great weak point. You do enough damage and the top half falls to the ground and starts crawling towards you like a LOKI mech from ME2.

that's properly freaky!! Would have loved to fight (and kill) it though. I suppose it would have some kind of reaper turret as well as the drones? I thought the cerberus engineers were enough of a pain, now this.....

How do you churn these designs out so fast? It was just yesterday that you put up the reaper krogan wasn't it?

AndrewRyanArt In reply to rohansoldier [2012-05-22 08:31:40 +0000 UTC]

Lots of practice and the more you understand anatomy/rendering the faster things go. It still takes me way longer than I want to finish a character. I'm always getting faster though which is reassuring.

It would be awesome al the squad of ME1/2/3 as reapers!

And tragic scenes like a Shepard killing reaper LI. Or Tali with Garrus, EDI with Joker, etc.

BTW, Excellent work!
