I subscribe to the whole popular sci fi metagaming thing when thinking about their skin.  While its doubtful that Bioware ever actually tells us how it feels, Tali is an alien that is supposed to be found attractive by a human audience.  Her skin has a good chance of being silky smooth just because of that. 

How it would be from a scientific perspective, I've got no idea

Uhhh... not entirely true.
They made Thane look like I'd hallucinate if I licked his skin.
Getting stoned....hey ...wait a min...that might just be a good idea...."Hey Thane! Come here!"

Thane was also a reptile.  He was always supposed to be an emotional connection, not one the player found physically attractive.  At least that's the way I saw it.

While the connection with Tali is more emotional than most, I still get the feeling that Bioware will make her as attractive to human tastes as possible.  Like I said though, I'm not ruling anything out, just that would seem like an unlikely choice to create for quarians in general.  Personally I'm just fine with the opposite DNA and immune system problems.  The less obstacles in the relationship going forward, the better.

Well in my man defense (I lose enough points here already with the damn d'awwwwws and 's,) I noticed the obvious features first after initially seeing the picture, but after looking at it a little closer, I think the hands are the best part.

As far as color, Pink/purple is the favorite skin color among the people that don't think she's going to have a pale human skin tone.  There isn't really any evidence for any skin color at this point.  The purple visor/suit as an alalogue for skin color is the best we have.  Personally, I love the purple color

Ahh, Artist's choice then. I like it when people try to reason out why a Quarian's skin would be a certain shade, make's for thought provoking discussion.

The only thing I'm pretty sure of is that their skin would be rather... Wet to the touch? It's a weird thought but it stems from thinking that their bodies naturally try to absorb and gather foreign particles and then "flush" it from their system when it's not compatible.

As a specie they're basically pollen dispensers.

but the visor this is inaccurate just because tlai has a purple visor does that maker her purple, what about miss black visor on the citidel, does that make her black, or how about Kal'Reegar, does that make him red, No, its just the visor color, all you can tell from it is Tali likes purple

Kal'Reegar had a purple visor on Haestrom but a black one on the Migrant Fleet.

Hmm, now that I look more at that pose, doesn't admiral Xen do the same exact cross arms and lean back thing?

Doesn't make her less hot, just interesting

If she does, it's Bioware just reusing animations. 

And that's Disney's job!

really, i thuoght... ohh nvm his suit was red and yellow


But still the visor color thing still sticks, its non valuable information, every quarian has a different colored visor, down to personal prefrences

I always qualify that statement about skin color by saying that the evidence is circumstantial at best.  My opinion, is that suits and visors are purple by default, and quarians have the option of customizing the suits however they like.  When I was on the flotilla last, I counted something like 16/20 visors as purple, and almost all suits as purple.  That seems to support purple being the main color.  That suit is their appearance to quarians, it wouldn't make sense that they couldn't customize it how they liked.  It still seems that purple is the default though.  And I still contend that being analogous to skin color is a better reason than they all like purple.

Its all speculation though.  We really have no evidence on skin color at this point.

TIM is a massive **** block. The one thing worse are the Hanar. I think we all know why.

I certainly hope so.
Making them as "human" as possible, would indeed be preferable to something "out there".  Space elf would be best (sic!) but I'd settle for anything humanlike with hair.

I'm going to post that short TIM story in the morning, and within like 10 seconds I'm going to see someone post that image of TIM in the collector base ceiling.

well not really, you also have to factor in that the suites are handed down, and they just made them purple, because of the way their eyes are deeper, or higher into the UV spectrum, soo maby purple is blue to them or some wierd thing, and since they have to moniter the fleet so it doesnt grow or shrink, they will always have 7.5 million suits at any given time being used, the rest are split between ships, and maby purple is just easier to manufacture since they are in space and lack manufacturing plants, or materials for manufacturing as they put most of it into fixing ships, and the cloth is just naturally purple and they cant afford to get different dye... and if they feel like wasteing money to upgrade it why the hell not, but most just dont care as they all  have the we want to be the same type mortality

[sergio71785]

I thought suits were custom made for each Quarian?

OHH...
Also to make things easier for the quarians, they probally color-coat the suites depending on what job you do on the fleet, if your a civilian/engeneer your suit is purple, if your a soldier your suit is black, that type of thing...

Yeah, Theirs a supprisingly large ammount of stuff on quarians in there...  Its how im ablle to swat down incorect information.

[sergio71785]

I think Quarians would be free to decorate their suits however they wanted.

Customizing your suit would be the only way of making yourself look different than others; of making yourself distinct.

thats why kal'reegar has 2 suites one purple one and one black one, one is for showing he's a soldier while in fleet also thiese suites are more comfortable, the other is more combat enhanced to protection during battle and less comforable, thiese ones can be customised... not the other one you wear while in fleet
