Description
Well, now that we finally have pics of the female armor in Mass Effect 2, I thought I'd give my character a new pic.Really pleased with this one - everything in it is 100% made by me - obviously Shepard herself is a drawing, the photos used to create the background were taken by me, and the planet is CGI work by me.
I also haven't fallen into my usual trap of having slightly too-large heads.

Did I already tag this in my BADASS collection? I cannot recall...

Wow! What technique was used for the N7 armor?
I'm guessing that it's at least 20 shaped layers of the same texture all differentiated by lighting techniques using the burn tool and feather tool, am I even close to being right?
Regardless of how you did do it, I praise you for it's pure awesomeness.

Actually every armor piece is on the same layer, shaded in the same way I do everything else, and then the pattern was simply overlayed and I set the layer style to 'soft light'

Awesome design. Makes my FemShep look rather plain by comparison!

Beautiful lighting! I love your detail work in this piece too. ^^ Putting in the sky-crane-tower-thing from Tuchanka was a nice touch as well.

Very nicely put together I love the detail and work you put into the armor, and I think your pictures are the only ones I have ever seen of a blond female Shepard actually :S and she actually looks feminine. I think i struggled for close to an hour to get a female Shepard that didnt look like a hardened soldier ^^ very nice work with the textures.

Very nice, when I chose that hair style for one of my female chars the graphics are not really cooperating, the hair seems to... vibrate. Really nice (draw her with the Revenant!).

Hehe, I'm planning to draw her with that.
You must remember that when this was drawn, ME2 wasn't out - we hadn't even seen that gun

Joss: Well, shit. Now what?
Baum: Shepard's done what no one else has, she survived us, death want take her easily.
Joss: You mean the Lazarus Project? A little soon, don't you think?
Baum: Get the word out to the General. Tell him the League says it's time to get started.
Joss: Aye, sir.

Beautiful work! One of the only Mass Effect 2 fanarts I've seen that is really well done. Yeah, all of the male Shepards I make tend to look like Neanderthals....maybe I should try making a female one... o_o

OrbitalWings In reply to Morgan9 [2010-02-11 10:09:51 +0000 UTC]
You definately should - the character seems to work better as a female.
Plus it's nice to have a female lead who isn't a sex object.

Morgan9 In reply to OrbitalWings [2010-02-17 18:22:48 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, true.It's too bad there aren't more female leads that are depicted in a respectable way like Mass Effect 2.
...also, the Garrus romance conversation is hilarious.

After I finish as a male I'm gonna try as a female to see how different it is.

Nice, I LOVE IT. I wish I had a scanner~~ I am a Game art and design major, but. I do not own a scanner, and I am only self taught. I LOVE IT!! I own mass effect2 and beat the game, Nice use of Photoshop!!

If only Bioware could do hair like you do, maybe then their character customization would go from 'okay' to 'awesome'

Can't wait until I meet Liara again in ME2. Just a shame I have to wait until Friday! Bloody Yanks got the game today!

Indeed - it's been driving me mad. But according to GAME, my copy has already been shipped - so hopefully I may get it Thursday instead of Friday.

Heh, that gives me hope. I preordered my CE from Gamestation, consequently I could get mine on Thursday too, as Gamestation and GAME share the same parent company. Can't wait!

Damn she looks awesome, one of the finest looking images of Shepard that I've ever seen.

Slick image here. Really awesome work on that new Onyx armor. Hopefully you can wear it longer then the 1st level this time... without it being obsolete.

Actually you technically wear it for the whole game - swapping in and out individual parts and customizing colors and patterns.
