Description Assuming that you've looked at Tali of House Zorah first, this is what meant by drawing Paralells between both Houses. The War Banners are the exact same shape design and both have Three Ships as their House Sigils (House Zorah has Three Ships of the Migrant Fleet and House Geth has Three Geth Fighters).

I had a lot of fun working on this one, making significant references to the Geth such as the Green Font for the House Motto (Data Streams) and the Greeny, Turquoisy colour of his Planet as a small homage to the Geth Consensus. But I have a confession to make, i'm a little dissapointed with the final result. You see I wanted Legion to be one of the more Tragic figures of the Throne Effect range (his sacrafice for the entire Geth still makes me cry), and I'm not sure if I did a good enough Job in his Body Language. I still wonder if I could've done a better job, but - as i'm sure many Artists can relate - there comes a point where rubbing out and starting all over again gets exhausting. I had hoped I could make up for that with the House Motto: it's one of Legion's quotes before Shepard and EDI give him his name and I think it adds significance to the Plight of the Geth to be free and become True Intelligence.

"I am totally digging this series of yours!"


That makes me both happy and sad. Sad because it has been so long since I did this series and it's still not complete (I never did get round to Garrus, Vega, Jacob, Kaidan, Ashley, Javik, and Samara). But the unfortunate fact is that my style, mediums, techniques and overall method for making such artworks has changed so much that I just can't 'go back' to that approach, and it wouldn't feel right to continue (you'll have to take my word for it, they'd just look out of place compared to what I've already uploaded). At best i'd have to start considering a reboot, perhaps when - through a miracle - I become more efficient at producing art

Jacob and Kaidan not needed xD

And don't worry, any new project will be cool too!

Thankyou

It's the moment when he says "Copying Code is Insufficient. Direct Personality Desemination Required" that breaks me. You can just sense the realisation + fear in his voice.

I know...


Also, what was really heartbreaking for me to hear - when Shepard tells Legion "Good luck" and he replies "Acknowledged", but later in that mission it's Legion who says "Good luck" to Shepard - just showing he is not simply a geth platform without feelings, but a unit with a soul FEELS, NOOO!!!
