*semi spoiler warning. Nothing even remotely major but i'm warning you anyways.*
Great art concepts, love all of them save for Ashley who is still making me shake my head. Otherwise I am really surprised that darkhorse did so well with these. Going from picture to picture...
1. Not touching ashley, I don't want to derail the thread.
2. Kaiden looks great. Although I still wonder why he is bulking up so much while ashley is stripping down, (Argh sorry :innocent:officer, but since the reaper invasion its all hands on deck.
3. Vega looks like a football star here for some reason (probably the war paint) but I like it. It doesn't do much to differentiate him from any other soldier but maybe that's the point. I have to admit I didn't think much of him to begin with, but now that we know he is shep's "guardian" of sorts he is growing on me.
4. Anderson looks great! Exactly like a shipbound commanding officer who found himself in the midst of a ground war. I think they did a very good job here. Nothing I can really add except that it will be great to see anderson again outside the politcol office. (even if he did effectively abandon humanity the council seat I fought damn hard for him to take.)
5. Not much to say about garrus. Looks great, like he went up in rank or something (I have not read any of the descriptions yet). Otherwise same old awesome garrus.
6. Also approve of liara's look. She went and gained some scale armor while I wasn't looking, officially making the biotic scientist more heavily armored than a certain someone. Its a great outfit that highlights her acknowledged role from the past games (a doctor, an archeologist or similar role) yet gives her a combat ready look. A pleasant suprise honestly, I figured they would keep her in soft clothes because she was a master biotic with barrier.
Overall I like it. I'm honestly pleasantly surprised with dark horse.
