Description "I'm the boss, CEO, queen if you're feeling dramatic. It doesn't matter. Omega has no titled ruler and only one rule."

Wooo! Well I had originally planned on spending more time on this but I ended up speeding along. I've decided that "speed painting" is now my official excuse for being lazy and sloppy

Anywho, I thought it would be fun to paint an asari since I'm on my Mass Effect art streak here. I used another one of my in-game screenshots as reference for this, one taken during the Omega DLC (which is great by the way ) Please ignore the background of nothingness. I used a noise filter to try to replicate the film grain look in the original photo and to try to cover up my sloppiness and I think it ended up looking pretty good!

Done in GIMP with my Wacom tablet.

That grain effect just gives this picture such a dark and gritty effect, really fits with the quote and the pose!

Jealous of that foreshortening skill though.

Thanks! I liked the way the film grain turned out too - it sort of sharpened up some of the blurrier lines, and helped compensate for the lack of texture on her head (this species usually has sort of a scaly texture going on). And I'll let you in on a little secret - there was not the least bit of skill used for the foreshortening Seriously I just kinda put down blobs of color that looked roughly like wrinkles. I think the weird off-camera light helped because there's just a bunch of white and the few lines that are there sort of trick the brain into seeing an arm and hand. lol foreshortening terrifies me - I seriously need to practice it more!

Awesome! The fore-shortening in her arm is great. I always have a hard time with poses/angles like this but yours looks really good.

Thanks! lol at first I was terrified of the foreshortening because I'm awful at it, so I ended up just kinda painting blobs of color that roughly resemble wrinkles. Seriously if you stare at it she doesn't really have an arm but the way the colors are arranged sort of tricks the brain into seeing it
