Description So. I did this mainly because I wanted to do a nice study piece of a turian head in profile.

The blue-tips color scheme and the gag title are just for my own entertainment. I actually wasn't sure what color to make her when I started, but once she had this a certain blue cast... I couldn't not go this route.

Well, OK. I could have done something more dignified.... but... it wouldn't have been as funny? Heaven forfend I ever be straightforward about something.

Eh, anyway. Turians are from Mass Effect belongs to Bioware.

Thank you!

Let's see... I did a couple big, robust pencil sketches last Sunday, decided one of them was worthwhile, so I scanned that one in and painted on it in short intervals of my free time until Wednesday night when I said "DONE FOREVER." There might have been one point where I passed out and shoe elves took over, but I'll never know...

Awww, the poor guy's frozen to the point of being all blue! I wonder if there are turian balaklavas? If there are, maybe he should have used one?

This looks wonderful, the skin is absolutely amazing in all its detail!

Haha, thanks! Re: balaklavas, maybe, although it might be a little uncomfortable around the mandibles. Amusing mental image though, I'm giggling

Ha ha, awesome. I guess I didn't really think about the mandible factor there, lol. I bet that'd be rather uncomfortable indeed.

Which is why Shepard NEEDS to trick Garrus into wearing one and soon! :d

"Turians don't like the cold, Shepard. have I ever told you that?" talking to Garrus on Noveria.

Haha, yup! Garrus wouldn't put up with this shabby treatment.

Haha, the title made me laugh because I'm doing Noveria right now and Garrus was complaining xD
That being said, the detail you put in this is fabulous! I especially love the texturing on the skin and how you made the face plates look bone-like. Your lighting and color work are incredible!
