Very nice art, sir-edmund. If you haven't submitted your art to the FemShep group on dA, you might be interested in checking the place out. : )

Edit:  And I've just seen that you applied to be a member several hours ago.  I just approved you.

Thanks, I promise more art will be forth-coming. I have a serious girl-crush on my Shep.
Belated edit for top of the page.

And beautiful drawing edmund!  The level of detail is amazing and your femshep looks fantastic! Really great work!! Thanks for sharing!

I would love for this style to be in ME3. As much as I love her current bob, I think my Shepard would definitly be getting a haircut. I guess for now she gets to keep her tresses.  (shameless self-plug :innocent: )

Really nice piece of work, edmund. I'd love a painting/drawing of my femshep, but alas, the skill & talent eludes me.

Considering my affinity with art in this thread I am totally suprised I don't have account on there.  

Probably because im not an artist myself and just browse other peoples piecies.  Anyway very delayed sign up now. Maybe as my photomanips get better I will upload them onto there and let the wider world see Amelia. For now I will just send comments of inspiration!  So yeah pretty much what I do on here then

It's more luck than skill believe me. Having a key bound to the playersonly command helps as well.

So ELE's party hats pic made me think of a fancy dress party, which made me think of this:

I was updating my FF.Net account with some things I'd written elsewhere, and one was a prompted piece about Shepard having a nightmare.  So I figure, why not, I may as well share it here, too.



... just don't tell her I told. 

Eeep! I think Chan knows, Fire!

(I really liked your story. You're a very talented writer so don't hesitate to share!)

Yes, I spent an inordinate amount of time there  Especially since I had to get it from Pinnacle Station on Insanity.

Love your avatar image ELE, you never fail to surprise!

I just want my Shepard to be a normal person again after the Reapers are defeated (we defeat them right? Ermm...) She retires, gets her man (or woman or blueberry), and buys a house. An awesome house with an armory and a gun range. Before I start rambling that is my hope: ME3 ends victorious and Shep gets to be a normal person again after the Reaper defeat. A normal person with superhuman strength. Because I think she's stuck with that.

How about, "gets the apartment back and jaunts out to Pinnacle Station whenever"? 

*wistful sigh* Yeah.  I love that stupid apartment.

[M3cHr3p71l]

Some time ago, I was showing ME2 to a friend who doubted if to buy it or not, when he surprised suddenly...something was strange; then the predictable question -"but...  isn't Shepard a male?"
It is a interesting thing to see how bioware design a huge and omnipresent strategy of marketing to Sheploo and, after of this, show the stats (that we all perfectly know) where appears the "apparent" superiority of maleshep when you choose your Shep.
At this moment , you understand it and say WTF is it?.
How can you release some stats that are directly proportional to the number of times sheploo's face appears and, the best of all, that indirectly supporting or justifying your marketing campaign? Or better said, they replenish to each other.

PC
Gamer US has compiled a list of the 15 things they'd like to see in
Mass Effect 3. Some very good points about combat and such, but what
really got me was the fact that they did comment on wanting Shepard to
be able to reflect more on things, as well as fewer squaddies so they
feel like family, not employees.

Also, they put Female Shepard boxart as no. 14 [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/grin.png[/smilie]

Linky

And uhm, on a personal note I rather like the apt description they give of Sheploo [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/whistling.png[/smilie]

Yay more media support [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/happy.png[/smilie] Actually thats a really good article and has me thinking on a couple of points I blindly ignore.

And
have never say never my good journalist.  Your helping immensely. The
comments below the article are filled supporting this point so it shows
it does actually mean something to a lot of people!

Some points of that list I may agree or not, but #14...No doubt.

Akari Tenshi wrote...

I pretty much agree with everything on that list. Though I do have to take exception to this paragraph:

PCGamer wrote...
Yep, Liara is the only squadmate who’s guaranteed to survive both games. If BioWare don’t want to waste voice acting budget on people the player might not have access to, their only option is one of the least  interesting characters in the series.

Least interesting? Liara? Is this guy playing a different game to the one I've got?
*Might be a Liara fanboy* [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/whistling.png[/smilie]

As for number 14? Do it Bioware, I f***ing dare you! [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/devil.png[/smilie]

Of course, the Earth is also the centre of the universe and all rotate around Earth - "What the hell...?"

Edit: A little late but... #1000 pages of FemShep !!!:wizard:

Pity, perhaps its more influence from the Schlock Mercenary comic, but they actually have a way of preserving people from serious trauma, so long as the brain is intact. Then rebuild the body if necessary. The non-explanation of what Cerberus did (and Miranda's log entries describing the damage) doesn't look like they did it that way.

The Shep on the right. Is she wearing Jack's clothes or is it modified version of the last ship-worn attire? It's bloody awesome.

That is a modded version of Jack's outfit.

Anyway, I thought it was a nice pic with some great lighting.

Lighting is everything in this game. Sometimes my Shepard looks great, and other times she looks like someone tied her to the front of a truck and drove through the forest where ugly sticks get cut.

most of tuchanka is ugly-stick land. lighting there is awful.

@ sir edmund - love the pic. that's very cool.

Delerius_Jedi wrote...
Seriously, it's great to see how far we've come. And with a relative minimum of OT-ness. Speaking of which, I think it was Sentox6 who made the point that they felt BioWare's re-working of Shepard into someone just being too awesome to not resurrect and I have to say I think you hit the nail on the head there. Shepard in ME1 was a very capable human being who had to rise to an almost impossible occasion - having to prevent the extinction of all life in the galaxy. She did so, but lost people doing it. In ME2, the simple fact that we have no self-reflection changes Shepard into...cyber-Jesus?(to borrow one of smudboy's terms). It's just so much more generic wish fulfillment fantasy than ME1 and I really didn't like it.

agreed. i know some people prefer the gameplay of me1, but i liked the me2 gameplay and pacing of story much better. it  IS an awesome game, it just had some moments of... huh?

i think 2 things could have fixed that cyber-jesus thing.

1) allow shep to reflect on his/her death at some point

and 

2) omg, what about shep the PROTHEAN TRANSLATOR? wasn't the whole point of the first game that shep just happened to be the one who got the visions from the beacon? i LOVE the whole Unlikely Hero thing, and i took shep to be just that. thankfully for the galaxy, she's determined and capable, so she put her knowledge to good use, but it was just dumb luck that she got the visions and her chutzpah that let her figure out the mystery before all was lost.

so when cerberus brings her back because "she's more than a soldier, she's a symbol" - i'm like yeah, some symbol. everyone thinks she's a nut, a traitor, or just sort of "oh, it's you, the dead spectre- only you're not". now true, 2 years pass between than convo and shep's return, but it still belies that as a good reason for bringing her back. "you could have trained an army for what it cost to bring me back" - exactly.

so why not return to the obvious? shep is the only one with first-hand knowledge of the prothean visions + cypher.

shep's a friggin' rosetta stone - with guns.

clearly this is the galaxy's best hope of surviving the reapers. but instead of any recon mission or mention of that, it's just straight up shooting stuff.

anywho...another whine from me about plot. sorry. i clealry think of this a little too much. maybe we'll see that return in ME3, but i just don't see why that wasn't brought up at all in me2. it's the best reason i can see for shep being brought back. i guess it would have not been "badass" enough? or would have confused those who didn't play me1? but surely the people who didn't play me1 could have figured it out, right?

eh... yeah.

Yeah, that is Jack's "B" costume (slightly modded I think by the awesome ELE) on Madeline.

I am definitely looking forward to the return of a more human Shepard. Or I should say that I'm hoping for a humanized Shepard. At this point I'm starting to feel like Michael Jordan in a basketball team; I want other characters (especially Kaiden) to have their moment of glory,

and a party hat. :innocent:

Shepard is also being targeted specifically by the Collectors (-->Reapers.)  It's not elaborated on much, but for some reason they wanted her body specifically.  So that's a reason beyond her leadership ability and symbol status to bring her back.  TIM sees her as a tool to use against the Collectors.

It will all be explained later...I hope it all gets explained later

[sagefic]

@ ele: yeah.... yeah to collectors and yeah to getting explained later.



i have such high expectations for me3 it's not even funny. ><

Lol,  but actually while we on this people dont seem to notice the fact Bioware have reflected parralels to biblical narratives.  Its not something their scared to do, just look at the Chantry in DAO.

The Raising of Lazerus  = Lazarus Project

Most likely due to the anti political/political nature of the forums anything discussing it would get out of hand quick. But looking at it does open your eyes a to new perspectives.

@ captain: well, and not to mention that there are 12 squaddies if you include the 2 DLC characters (since mornith and samara can't both be on the team).

i full expect a judas out of the lot. mebbe a few. my money's on legion.

[Captain Crash]

Complete agreement there Sage. I still cant decide Amelia's choice on "Heretic Station". How appropriately named too! Whats going to be the lesser of two evils?
