Well. I've only been here for about 5 days now and only have had the pleasure of knowing Tali for about a month now. But I have to drop in here and just say, Happy Anniversary Tali-fans!



Also damn, I was hoping I could start my fan-fic about Garrus & Tali today.

Well, since it's the anniversary, I thought I do a little something, just a simply sketch. My meagre skills aren't worth much though. Anyway, I originally did this little one for Volrath937(hence the name). Opinions are welcome:

Yes, the real European football, soccer.
That's why it seems so beautiful to me.
It's a game in which Tali could be good at.

That's a nice mental image, I'd love to have a go at drawing that actually...

GOD DAMN, Troodon, I didn't know you had mad art skills.

very nice troodon.

MadMapper said...
Yep, that's nice Troodon!

Cheers.
And another one... Again, only a sketch, very basic. Nothing like what Alien, Alphyn, MadMapper, or disjunctionreaper can do. I'm ******-poor when it comes to photoshop... Pencil and paper for me.

I don't. Or... at least I didn't so. You've seen some of my previous stuff. Nothing fancy.

I concur.

:steals Troodon's art skills:



Damn you making me want to draw.

[protoshepard]

Yay. I have only been around a few months but it is the first anniversary.

I will work on using my Gimp and "Tali" up a number of posts in all the past threads to edit a few counter pics I found for the Tali threads. My art skills could use work but since it is a great and special occasion for all of us, it is time for me to drop everything and work out one of my best sketches ever in honor of Tali. This will probably take a few hours to a full day for me because I am going to try to make it as perfect as possible I will have it posted even if it is unfinished, by the withing the next seven hours.

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

I love all this art! But because I am about as gifted at art than hanar, I am in the process of uploading a montage of Tali screenies!

[Someone With Mass]

Wow, I wish I could draw that good.

Hi guys, I'm new to Mass Effect 2 and Tali and am wondering what you think her flaws are?

For one, she's a poor leader, I find her lack of control over Prazza to be a great indicator of this. She basically stood by and told him to wait in the shuttle. You can't be that soft with your men. When you lead soldiers you have to make it clear beyond a doubt that you will not take any insubordination.

Second, I found her a bit over emotional. I can understand her trepidation about working with Cerberus but I can't understand her rather rude behavior to Jacob. He might be Cerberus but he had nothing to do with the attack on the migrant fleet.

I think she was quite firm with Prazza. She did say, "No Prazze, you're taking orders from me." When he sneers that they are with Cerberus now. It was there own fault that they were too hotheaded to listen to her warning.
You are a bit right about the second point though. I would say that her most obvious flaw is her naivety in ME1, but that is largely because of her lack of knowledge on the rest of the galaxy after being confined to the flotilla before going on her pilgramage. But she gets rid of that in ME2 and takes a level in badassery

I look at it as more a thing that you have to look at it from her point of view. She believes that all of Cerberus is an evil anti-alien organization that wants nothing more than to destroy and make the other races into lower class citizens or worse. As for Prazza, he was the marine commander from what I understand. She may have had tactical command but, he was a stubborn jarhead as the term is. She was more of a civilian anyway, not sure how much command she really had. She said that they had an agreement, but she never forced her authority or command. Makes me think she may have not had command but more of was given the lead at an agreement that she may be better suited though. I can't really remember ME2 very well at the moment though because I have been trying to get all the achievements for the first and to enjoy the full experience with Tali without a large pause. So my memory of Haestrom and Freedom's Progress are a bit blurry.

Here's one. How do you think Tali's upbringing as an admirals daughter affected her growing up?

I think it caused her to have to become as good as she was because otherwise her fellows would begin to believe she was just riding around on her father's laurels.

Agreed. Tal's upbringing definitely made her driven, if for no other reason than to prove she was her own person, and that everything she got, she earned.

So, happy anniversary Tali thread! LM screenies coming up!!





This one ^^ gives a whole new meaning to 'mind melding.' Not just asari do it!



Enkindle this!





Shouting is fun!



This is why paragon interrupts are great.





And of course, Tali doesn't get exiled, happy ending!

However, Garrus is so bored at the trial that his arms are sinking into his knees...

I also wonder what advantages she received as the daughter of an admiral. It couldn't have been all bad, it would be very naive to doubt that there are advantages to being the daughter of one of the five most important people in the fleet.

I wouldn't say that there is no advantages, but I doubt there would be many advantages since most of the quarians are valued the same as the next, and all work to the betterment of the fleet. She might have had some, but none that she openly mentions, possibly something that was "in the background," something that she, herself, wasn't aware of. Of course as Tali says, because she is the daughter of an Admiral it's like having to try and live up to a reputation, and possibly more is demanded or expected of her. It's certainly not going to be easy.



Also, if what Shepard says is true about her having the best military training the fleet could offer, it would obviously be pretty rigorous too. All in all, I'd imagine that that demands, or expectations, would outweigh the advantages. Though, to my recollection, she hasn't made mention of advantages, so it's up for speculation. I honestly couldn't say, other than I'd imagine it being pretty tough.

It really doesn't feel like a year....
I think typing all theTali  Fanfiction made time fly

[MadMapper]

I remember she says something about that in the dialogues in ME1, can't remember what she exactly said, but It's something like that maybe she had a more comfortable childhood, but in exange others saw in her greater expectations. Correct me if I'm wrong



@ Troodon: don't underestimate yourself you're good at drawing, that portrait looks perfect ;D



@ FsDxRAGE: nice ones!

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

I don't think there would be many advantages to being the admiral's daughter either. In ME1, I believe Shep can ask Tali a similar question and she replies that quarian politics isn't hereditary, so she wouldn't get any obvious social/political ads or disads. But she does also say that a lot is expected of her on her pilgramage because she is an Admiral's daughter.

But it's all good, cuz she delivered!

[Bugsie]

Hi guys just popping in to say I hope you all have a great day, chatting about our favourite quarian lass.



Troodon, you sneaky skilled panda you - those drawings, gah, you say yours skills are meagre? I think they are fantastic! And FsDxRAGE - yours are bloody lovely too.



Tasha - great screenshots!

Heh, my panda paws are keeping busy. Practising with Tali is draining though, so many intricate lines. And for me, the swirls are almost impossible... nay, are impossible, so unfortunately they get left out. But, I do what can.



Happy Anniversary everyone.

Heh... The best I can do is basically making fat stick figures. Call me crazy but your sketches look a lot better than that. =P

[Kami102]

Alright!

Even though it's not Tali anniversary related with a celebration or stuff, I figured I had to do something for the 1 year anniversary.

So I (finally) finished Rune's request.

Just a calm picture of Tali lounging in a chair, reading one of Shepard's old history books from Earth
Sorry for the poor attempt at the circular window on the left; it was supposed to be where you could see the stars and the light shining on Tali. I got a little carried away with the shading

Enjoy!
