I don't know about that incident on the previous thread ,since I never got the chance to read through all the pages, but this thread I love. Seeing all these great femsheps here and reading through their story always puts a smile on my face. You guys are all awesome for keeping this thread alive and going.
What's great with femshep first of all as an idea, a character and then a figure is that you get to decide what she is going to be and that being said every single one of them is a work of art herself.  Gibbed or Texmod or not at all, I completely agree that everyone should feel proud of their femsheps! What's most important is what each one of them represent.

This is pretty much why I keep coming back to this thread long after I've considered myself done with the franchise. Everyone's just so damn proud of their girls and I love that. One of my favorite moments from this thread is the face code challenge in which everyone put in serious efforts to make good looking faces with each face code. That was a real eye opener and I found a couple of other face shape numbers that were my favorite to use. I love sage's neurotic tweaking of her girl. The transformation is amazing. It's the same girl, but way more realistic looking. (I wish I could put that kind of effort into my girl!)

This thread is actually the only place I've been comfortable sharing screenshots of my gal. Not that there's anything wrong with her or anything. I just got so tired of hearing comments like "if you've seen one, you've seen them all" or that all femsheps looked the same. Pretty hard to go head to head with Sheploo who's got a sweet detail to his face. (It's not all bad though -- I see guys who customize their own face get picked on just as much because their version doesn't come close to Sheploo. It cuts both ways.) You guys rock!


Just wanted to second this. I really do love this thread! Every femshep is beautiful and unique, but of course, all of them are many facets of the same character. Has there ever been a character like this in pop culture before, really? After all, Shepard as a character--what she symbolizes and the essence of her personality--are the same for all of us, I believe, and that is what makes her so iconic. And yet, we're so attached to the indivual faces we've created and the nuances of her personality we've each developed. We all have our own versions of her, and yet I agree with sage and others who have said there's a kind of "spirit of femshep" that all of our girls embody. It really is an interesting and unique phenomenon!

Hmm, looking at it the majority of Sheps I have made have black hair. Well, at least the ones who have made it more than 10 minutes into ME3, though only two have finished the game.

Haven't checked this thread in a long time~ :'D All the computer specs talk makes me jelly...but at least my ancient laptop still manages to play ME3 (a miracle!). If ever I do get a new laptop...I do wonder if I'll replay ME1-ME3 with my main Shep (eh, maybe not); gotta get a new laptop before DA3 arrives though.

@Audience Beautiful Sheps! Their hairstyles suit them. Post here some more; we don't bite :3
@Eyil I like Cathy in the breather mask and Liara's outfit <3 Also, she looks so brave and badarse in the ending, my heart was breaking :crying: Hope to see more of Emily; she's pretty too~
@Tup3xi Seeing Tiia in the ME1 Onyx Armor makes me have these nostalgia feels; I like its rendition to ME2. Also, Tiia is so cute with the Avenger...and Reaper in the background :'D
@Mimi MIMI!!! Post here more often :'D
@ELE08 I like the different lighting effects on Drea. Love the purple-y one especially 
@SebAusFR Kyla looks exceptionally pretty in your Leviathan pics, especially the one after elaborating on Sage's blog <3
@lilitheris I always envy your hi-rez pics of hers; looking beautiful as usual in blue lighting (I refuse to believe otherwise :P )
@yukidama I love all of your Sheps' looks (I have a bias with black hair). At least you have variety; I can't seem to shake off that blue eyes+black hair combo that I like :( Glad to see your renegade regardless of how intimidating she is; still cute~
@Metal-Dragon I love your WIPs and Shep is looking badarse as usual~
@meonlyred Faye's expression switching from intimidation to looking innocent makes me laugh so much :lol: 
@N7Calibrator I love all your Sheps! They're all very pretty and have variation of features (unlike mine hehe). Hope to see more of them~ I love that grin from Eris, very mischievous indeed, and that biotic glow from Clea (I just love barrier a lot). Sadly, don't have computer space for flycam (yup, 7 year old laptop is ancient). I still get derpy faces from Shep though =] And many thanks for appreciating Kyrie despite the pink borders and the obvious pixels...I just love her so much still hehe. Also, I'm glad you find my transcripts and guides helpful; you are all welcome to them.
@all the blondes, dirty blondes and brunettes VERY PRETTY~ I admit to not seeing them as much (regarding dirty blondes), but I'm glad to see them all compiled and such. Still lovely and badarse all the same.

Sorry for the texty-ness (and the repetition of the word "love"; I can't help it, I like all your Sheps :P)...and yeah, almost all my Sheps are black-haired. I'M SORREH :crying:

<3 the cavalcade of hair colors!

@laikabaws:
Freya minus scars looks really good to my eye, not creepy at all.  Actually, even with scars but without the terminator eyes (can you do  that? I dunno) might work well.

I suppose those Palaven pictures of Eevy do have bluish light, and they’re not that bad—but there are a ton of discards from Palaven, the comm room, the  cabin… The reddish or non-tinted light, like in the EDI emergence sequence, definitely works better. On the other hand, the green from Mars was pretty nice, too.

One thing I note is that the  cybernetic eyes are less distinct in ME3…or maybe that’s just the ENB,
but they look more…sparkly than I’m used to. It’s not a bad thing.



Edit: since I’m kind of idle right now, a short note about the cybernetics and headcanon that became Unity background:

Shepard wasn’t actually completely destroyed in the Collector attack. Because  that’d be silly. Clinically dead, sure, in the same way that a drowning  victim might be, but the body was retrieved before any significant neural degradation could take place. The brain, brainstem, and spine were isolated and moved to artificial support while reconstruction went on around them. Or that’s what Miranda says, leastwise.

Aanyway, she didn’t get the cybernetics then. She awoke with her very own amber brown eyes, but suffered from constant problems with them (blurriness, dancing stars, blind spots) because the optic nerve was among the last things healing, and hadn’t quite completed the process.  A week or two in, another symptom arose: persistent bouts of moderate photokeratitis (light blindness) from bright things like, you know, explosions. At that point, the options were to either be out of commission for two–three weeks for surgeries and recuperation, or to try the newest model of cybernetic replacements. Just so happened that they had a brown set available. Although the prototype hadn’t yet removed the need for the telltale illumination of the iris, they were able to tone it down and make it a reasonably pleasant gold hue.

The cybernetics do not integrate absolutely seamlessly, but make up for the small margin they lose with their other benefits. In addition to the (improved) standard features like magnification and light level adjustment, this model also includes direct data feed capability (a HUD in the lens, sort of), split view (but that looks really weird), as well as various spectrum ranges in addition to the standard lowlight, UV, and infrared. Eevs’ favorite mode is IR combined with ‘sonar’, which uses acoustic and other frequencies to create an echolocation environment. The modes and functions can be toggled through the omnitool interface, but she also has a few mnemonics that combine eye muscle, optic nerve, and brain stimulation to toggle things off and on. The IR/sonar, for example, is linked to the impulses created by visualizing and tracing a green, seven-pointed star with her eyes closed. The estimated cost of the implants is 650 000 credits. Each.

Liara’s become accustomed to the eyes—shocking as they were the first time they met in Nos Astra—but she quietly keeps hoping that Shepard will at some point reconsider the operation to restore her own.

@lilitheris What Freya says and her expressions are kinda creepy in some shots though :'D Hmm, I'm not sure if it is possible to get rid of the terminator eyes. And you're right. It is less terminator-y than in ME2

Also about Eevy in lighting, haha I'll just see for myself then (lol kidding)~ She's still pretty all the same; I'm just smitten with her pixie cut and her hi-rez-ness :3

I like what you wrote. I imagine that the brain and the spinal cord got frozen at some point when Shepard was exposed to subzero temp.(naturally occurring cryo) and weren't part of those cell that did show some level of degradation. Though it is not clear when exactly she lost her helmet, it did help preserve them when she entered the atmosphere. 
Interesting eye procedure, making eye/ear piece obsolete. That fit with a Shepard that won't be bothered with certain rifles optics upgrade/HUD.
I guess, like for muscle weave or any cybernatic, it is suggested that an upgrade is possible should Shepard express the need for one.

 oh yikers! didn't mean to start anything w/ blonde comment, just that i often notice canon/main/pictures-that-have-been-posted-recently sheps tend to have darker hair or red hair. kinda like a wonder woman or black widow bias. anyhow, not that blondes aren't out there - clearly that is not the case given all the pics posted.

i just...yeah. incorrect statement and one that perhaps came off snotty or something. not my intention. though i do think the CC's lack of haircolor options might be pushing people to certain hair colors over others. the new blonde shade(s) looked ghastly on my shep, for example, and I had to make up my own color from scratch ><

Black to me is the one color that really feels satisfying during gameplay, without needing to be reworked.

Consider this a quick bookmark. It's been months since I have touched the single player campaign and because of Leviathan I kind of renewed my interest in getting through with my two remaining characters. I wonder if others have taken an extended break too? Or have you all valiantly slogged away, playthrough after playthrough, no matter how conflicted one might feel about the ending and extended cut?

So as a token to my rekindled interest in Shepard's final chapter:

Same. I enjoy dedication to a character and it doesn't get more dedicated than your own customizable protagonist. The thought and time put into these women is amazing to the point where some have even become parts of their creators. All the fics and art and comoics, and cosplay for people's individual Shepard's is amazing and makes this place worth coming back to.

Is that Nemain? Gorgeous profile!

I haven't played a full game since the game came out. I went through Leviathan with some old saves. I've only done multiplayer, messed with the character creator, and done a few bits of single player here and there.

I'll probably come back to it if some more good DLC comes out. In the meantime TOR is a giant timesink.

Yeah, same as ELE for the most part, mostly since I can't seem to keep away from playing in the cc... I've only done Leviathan once though, and haven't even looked at MP. Spent the time I would sink into Mass Effect into bits of my game backlog and tv shows...

 Thank you, Ele. I thought that picture perfectly summed up how I feel about coming back to the single player. Tentative and hopeful.

   I'm surprised you haven't played more. I assumed that at this point most of you guys would have beaten my play count but I guess I'm not alone. The time I have spent with ME3 over the summer was solely with multiplayer. If anyone looks at manifest you'll see that I became....addicted and honestly, it's hard to get very worked up about story DLC when you already know how everything will end. It's unlike ME2, a game where we obsessed over little details, anticipating how they will play out in the final game. Leviathan has made me reconsider how I played out Devi. Her choosing Destroy seems dubious now because of the Leviathan's existence and potential as future threat. One day I will do another complete playthrough with her, starting from scratch in ME1.

Considering SP, I've got Leviathan, but only want to start it once I've done the monastery mission with Samara and her kids. I don't like meeting Banshees in Leviathan before having met them in the "main game". Oh and it's still all with my dudeShep. Kassia is still currently somewhere prior to Priority: Palaven I think...

It feels like I've had this same dream for months now... Am I dead? Indoctrinated? Kaidan deprived?

I do try to play SP twice a week though, although with work deadlines and other RL intrusions it often doesn't work out that way.

I'm back to ME1(then ME2) when i get a break from Ghost Recon multiplayer, Skyrim or Dragons Dogma. ME3 has become quite a struggle for me to go through.

Yes, way too many people were apparently choosing Destroy rather than one of the right options.

I’ve not played since the original endings, actually. Did the bare minimum EC. Haven’t touched MP (not rewarding lies) and not in the least interested in the plot erosion Leviathan introduced. Just a week or two ago I started another replay after managing to get Eevy somewhere close to where I want her. I haven’t even managed to play ME or ME2 again, I always just trail off :crying:

All my time’s been spent writing instead. So I guess something good came from the soul-crushing of the original endings.

(I’ve not quite decided whether to include Leviathan in my story universe. If I do, Eevy will have forgone the artifacts and blown up the relay, but I suppose there’s still a risk that some of the ludicrous plot creatures still lurk somewhere.)

 Do you mean the endings that Bioware intended players to choose (Synthesis, mainly)? Or do you mean that there is one definite, correct ending for anyone's character? I like to think that my characters will make their choice not based on something that is supposedly pre-determined, i.e. Synthetics destroying Organics. Leviathan seems to throw freedom of choice out the window. Their past experience is supposed to support the belief that  war is inevitable.; that creation of synthetics will always lead to a galactic wide apocalypse. There's got to be some way to have Devi choose Destroy without feeling as though she is making herself willfully ignorant of what happened in the DLC.

’Twas of the sarcasm ^_^

Those idiots created the current ‘solution’. How smart can they really be? Smart enough to be right about synthetics? But alternatives:

1. Ignorance (id est, don’t play the DLC: thus Shepard doesn’t know about it when making the decision, and it’s a problem for the future maybe);

2. Accept the risk (I think this is still valid—none of the other options guarantees anything, either);

3. Headcanon a solution (like asteroid + propulsion in my case).

As a general remark:
I personally think every ending can be as valid as invalid to anyone, because honestly they all touch moral-grayscale. Whatever flip or turn any single individual gives them is as valid as whatever anybody else chooses to 'do with it'.

Saying anything else is bound to rub people the wrong way, and there's no reason for it whatsoever unless you're out to cause a sh*tstorm.
