@1490 : welcome Posted Image


Gracias. Im actually getting a lot more interested in the Garrus/femshep romance now after viewing some excellent art and comics on deviantart.  

Wish I could add the Garrus sig though: Im having problems copying-pasting and whenever I try to use an apostrophe or slash, it randomly brings up a search bar.  I tried asking in the Bioware network forum, but its pretty dead in there. Anyone have any idea whats going on?

EDIT: ok, there was just a link for a temp version of the banner on my computer, even though I didnt paste it into the text box. When I put this edit in, it disappeared. Im really confused now.

See, I've got a slightly different impression of the Turian physiology. Based on the fact that the plates don't actually provide "armor benefit" I think they're cartilage (or something somewhere between cartilage and chitin in nature) with a layer of skin over them... it's just that that skin has metals in it, much like our skin has melanin. So conventional tattooing would work, though they might have to use dyes that adhere to (or at least don't react with) the metals in their skin.

The idea that it's just skin also makes the nature of his scars, especially the scars on his lips and cheek, make more sense.

I agree, it's not purely metal, but it has been referred to as metallic and the plates seem to be made of a much less pliable texture than any type of skin as we know it. I would think injecting dye in the sense of traditional tattooing just wouldn't work correctly.

If the rest of you don't start stepping it up with the TotP Garruses, I'm going to run out! 

Here is a comic I think is super cute. I saw it unsourced a few weeks ago, but during one of my recent "dives" I totally found the source! Cool story, bro. Quiet, you.

i like to think garrus does his makeup in the morning.

in a totally manly way. possibly blindfolded in a darkroom while reconstructing a disassembled gun while hanging upside down.

what do those actions have to do with putting on turian makeup, i dunno. ask garrus, hes the one putting makeup on upside down in a darkroom blindfolded like a boss.

How do you put on your makeup, Garrus?

On a pile of money, surrounded by beautiful ladies.

Ah. Just asking.

Now that its brought up - I remember reading in the codex about turians just having reflective "plate-like" skin. Its not a natural armor that they foam on theyre own skin. Its probably just the top that seems that way - and judging from garrus' scars - its true as we can see regular skining was beneath those layers of plates that got partly blown off. 

I read somewhere that its referred to a "metallic exoskeleton". So "stains" and conventional dyes would be more logical - thus backing up that comment Shep said about using face paint so to speak. 
Wow I just got learned about a fictional species. Yay for forumsPosted Image heh

I just had a funny idea... maybe the facial markings are actually industrial powdercoating. *snerk*

Remember Garrus Effect 2? Yeah, I kinda got sidetracked this semester by the horrors of "class" and "studying" and "research." So I have quite the backlog of Garrus Effect 2 pics here. Not quite to the romance parts yet, but I'm sure once I am you'll all be squeeing with joy.

Hmm... I'm noticing a .00001% drop in Garrus related posts. Better release a picture of me with my shirt off
Sooo... Kasumi. You know we could always forget about this whole "revenge" plan and drive this thing up to Make Out Point. Whaddya say sweetheart? Eh?
Should you really be surfing the extranet and driving and at the same time?...
Look, up in the sky! It's a bird, it's a ship, it's-.... oh wait, it's the Normandy. Yeah, it's a ship.
Don't worry Lady Liberty, Garrus is here to stand guard over you.
A smiling Turian with an assault rifle is NEVER a good sign
Whaddya think of my new duds? I know, I know. You'd rather see them off. Heyyo
THE LIGHT! NO! I STILL HAVE SO MANY FANGIRLS TO SEDUCE!
Hurry up with this Kal'reegar. This gun is clipping through my armor and that can't be good
Just ooooone more drink. If this one has another rufie in it though, I'm seriously quitting
I really don't have a caption for this one. I just know the ladies' legs will turn into jelly after looking at it.
Oh ho ho ho ho!
Hey, this isn't the way to the Garrus fancon! Some driver you are...
Ok... now how the hell do I stand up in this armor again?
Squinty eyes...
Spotlight on me? Wow, that stage director really knows what he's doing.
Garrus elbow to the FACE
HEY! You kids down there! Get off my lawn!
Ok, I'm sorry. What the crap is up with Jack's arms in this one? Really
We shall have peace in our time Mr. Krios. Peace in our time

 More Garrus Effect 2. Told you guys I had a lot!

Oh my gosh, enough about your wife already! You need to put yourself out there again Thane! Try Kelly! She'll do ANYTHING that isn't human.
Dang! We're stuck in the Asari's tractor beam. I guess they got a little peeved when I didn't call the day after...
Uh, sorry about Kelly, Thane. I probably should have told you about the whole 'Scale Itch' thing.
"Questionable Fanart?" Let me see! Let me see!
DAT ASS
"...has just been revoked!" Bonus points if you get this reference
Garrus' Angels!... Uh, Zaeed is probably Bosley
You wanna go? Huh? Huh? YOU WANNA GO MAN?!
I know! My wardrobe is constantly expanding. When you're a sexy beast like me, you need a flashy array of clothing
So... if we have sex, I'll die? Hmm. So, how good would it be? Hypothetically?
Hey! Cut it out Tali! I can see you undressing my armor with your eyes! They're like the only thing I can see through your visor!
Did you order the code red?! DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED?! I WANT THE TRUTH!
I'm picking up some seriously weird readings... Like, super weird. Like, disturbing. Oh wait, nevermind. It's just picking up the Garrus Love thread.
There, there Tali. I mean, sure your Dad was kind of a tool but... uh... crap
OBJECTION!!!
I'm out of order?! You're out of order! THIS WHOLE COURTROOM IS OUT OF ORDER!
Psst! The coast is clear! Let's run before the fans show up!
Go ahead, make my day...
Mmmhm. Mmmhm.... What? I'm listening! I admit through, it's hard with that outfit of yours. Oh don't look at me that way Samara, you're the one that choose the deepest neck possible!
