Description This picture showed up as my wallpaper (which is a rotating shrine to Mass Effect), and my husband immediately insisted that I upload it to Deviant Art IMMEDIATELY. I managed to squeeze in 15 minutes or so of Photoshop touch-ups before he wrested the keyboard from me and hit "Upload." So this one is for him. The fact that I adore it doesn't hurt, of course .

Actually, I believe you can use Gibbed Save Editor with the XBox as well (I do play on PC). Try this link: [link] , and this one: [link] . I give specific instructions on how to get this hair, and get it looking right, here: [link] .

My understanding is that Gibbed does not work with PS3; primarily a PC tool, it only works with the XBox because the XBox's save encryption has been cracked/hacked to allow access (PS3 has not). Sorry

Thank you! Yes, this is from ME3 (Cerberus HQ to be specific). The hairstyle is modded from Diana Allers' hair (and it looks so much better on Shepard ). If you're interested in how to do it, the instructions are here (see the follow-up comment as well): [link] .

Yup, definitely getting a PC. Need at least ONE pretty Shepard; then I can sort of say Garrus isn't embarrassed to be seen around her! Man, the Shepard I made who was romancing him was the worst!

Man, I wish I could get my girl to look half as good as this. I have her hair and eye color down pat, I just can't seem to figure out how to match her facial features properly. I guess I'll just have to keep fiddling until I finally get that "Omg" moment. Lol.

Btw, it's already been said, but your Shepard is simply gorgeous! No wonder Kaidan loves her .

GSJennsen In reply to Mana4X2 [2013-03-02 14:51:52 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much . Believe me, I know it's difficult, made harder by the fact that the first moments of ME3 really don't provide any good angles/shots for you to "check" your work. The lighting in the "cell" is weird, and the angles in the cutscenes at HQ are not overly flattering to Shepard - any Shepard. I trashed many an appearance early on because I thought the initial scenes were representative of how she would look the rest of the game.

The only half-decent moment is when Anderson pauses on the steps and Shepard is below, after Anderson says "we don't know for certain" or something, and Shepard has a dialogue option. After that, when you talk to the Catalyst in the air vent has one quick good view, then its nothing until standing on the Normandy shouting down at Anderson.

Also, it saddens me, but the stock hairstyles in ME3 are just odd and, again, not overly flattering. In my opinion the ponytail is the best, but I can say with authority that Graceyn is not so beautiful in the ponytail as she is with the custom hair.

Mana4X2 In reply to GSJennsen [2013-03-03 10:43:05 +0000 UTC]

The ponytail with the two strands over each side of her face, you mean? If so, then I totally agree! That's the one I chose because I did go, "Oh, that is SO my Shepard!" Lol.

I do agree that any female Shepard looks good with longer hair around the face. Just wish they'd given a better option for that in ME3.

Btw, I thought it was just my Shepard that looked off in those scenes. Interesting to know it's the game overall.

GSJennsen In reply to Mana4X2 [2013-03-03 14:50:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, that ponytail . Definitely the best option. The devs went on about how incredibly difficult the physics of long hair were (and why hair wouldn't "move" in ME3). And there are definitely clipping issues with the long hair modded onto Shepard; it clips through the collar of the armor, and sometimes the casual clothes; in the sex scene it clips through onto her chest. Annoying, but still totally worth it

It's absolutely not just your Shepard. It's odd really, because there are so many well-crafted cut-scenes throughout the game that she looks terrific in, but the angles and lighting in Vancouver are just...weird.

Where'd you get that custom hair? 0_o One of my FemSheps would look a lot better with that...
