Quarians are essentially humans with three fingers and weak immune systems that wear suits.....the asari are just human females with blue skin and tentacles instead of hair. I don't get all the weird fetishes people have....like the dude who was posting earlier about how being an insect doesn't mean ugly....screw that.

I don't get your point..aren't we kinda saying the same thing.....that's NOT a good representation of tali.
in and of itself the art looks pretty good...and is well done.
but that is NOT a quarian..much less Tali....
so again..I don't get your point...unless you're just blindly saying the art itself is actually bad because you don't want it to represent tali either...in which case we're saying 1/2 the same thing.

That picture is VERY close to what you see through the mask and they are likely to have human-like mouths. The only thing you could argue is skin color and patterns and eye color/texture(not shape) but that's it really. So yeah that pretty much IS a quarian and pretty darn spot on shape of what Tali's face is.....matches what we see through the mask perfectly.

how do you come up with that stupid theory...just because they're humanoid in shape doesn't mean they'll look very human at all.
look at a Salarian......try and tell me they're just humans with horns on their heads.
gtfo.

....no..it doesn't.
if you have eyes you can see her eyes are different..and on certain close views you can see what looks like ridges on her forehead..not cybernetic implants.
so like I said..I guess a salarian is just a human with horns right?
to reiterate....gtfo

Honestly, a skilled artist could take the lines given in the game and come up with something entirely different from what you're expecting.

There isn't much room for expanding the size of her head to make different shapes, all there is to work with are her eye color and skin color and pattern.

Only if that's what you want to limit yourself to. Which I'm guessing you do.

You're not being very detailed. What are you getting at? You're not saying anything speciffic and all you gave was some obscene cartoon drawing some fool somewhere made.

It only appeared obscene at first. But the idea is that you can take very basic lines and create something that defies expectation.
But my opinion hasn't changed much from the very first post I made on this thread. The artists know that it's fairly easy to create an alien that appeals to men by essentially making it human, paint it blue, add nice breasts.
And it's my opinion that if you're going to bother with aliens, make them alien. I don't play Mass Effect to get into an alien's suit, so if Quarians looked beyond your comprehension, that's good.

Aliens can look beyond someone's comprehension without looking unattractive or out of place.
I'm a very visual person. The way Tali's personality was set up is appealing to me, but I'm going to be less inclined to like her as a character if they give her unappealing bird like features or go with the whole idea that since she has been soaked in anti-biotics all this time, that her skin would be shriveled or deformed.

Also, where did the idea come from that her skin was purple in the first place?
