Hi all,

Today I realized that I did not have enough Mass Effect related merchandise. I've got clothes, books, comics and posters, but that simply wasn't enough.

So I decided to start a little project. An easy one, too! I wanted to have Shepard's dog tags on my bedside table. Then I can pretend that Liara gave me a present! :wub:

Simple padded backing wrapped in fabric. I plan to paint the frame silver. I initially chose black because I have a number of black frames in my room, but I regret that now. Rather keep to canon.

The tag reads:
5923-AC-2826
L SHEPARD    (my character's  name is Luna)
ALLIANCE N7

Anywho, just thought I'd share.

PS. BioWare needs to make more Mass Effect merch.

Wow, that is indeed awesome! I love how you've recreated Shepard's bedside table, and to imagine that you have received a gift from Liara is really sweet. Great work!

Hahaha this is totes cute. Where did you get the dogtags? I know most key places can engrave them.

Thanks!

I went to custom engraving places called Things Engraved. I originally planned to have another line stating blood type and religious preference, but at $0.90 CAD a letter it put me over budget. I wish I had known that key places do engraving, too!

I'm pondering other way to Mass Effect-ify my room. I've got an aquarium... A worn-out N7 helmet would be tough. So would ship models. Perhaps a random shiny orb? :P

Oh, I know. I need a portrait of Liara!

Picked it up from Ikea a few years ago. It's branded "Ikea / KLAMMAN" on the rear. The backlighting only comes on when you press a button. Good for insomniacs like myself who would otherwise stare at the time all night :lol:

I bought silver paint today for the frame. Planning to sand and put primer on tomorrow.
