Description Here, have a sketchy, not-cleaned-up, speed-paint Nihlus, just because I'm trying to get over my pedantic obsession with cleaning up my linework. Didn't bother looking up ref for the gun, feeling lazy. It gets the idea across, that's all that matters right now. XD

His facial markings are a pain in the everything.

That is so awesome! Nihlus is really cool... too bad he wasnt in the game longer. D:

Boom' Splodey. Best title ever.

I know I'm totally seeing this picture wrong, but something about his pose makes me imagine him not as the hard ass Spectre we see in the game, but a raging goofball like Garrus doing some kind of impossible dance move. But, like I said, I'm seeing this wrong.

Hahaha well we don't really know THAT much about Nihlus - who knows, maybe he is a mad dancer in his spare time. Techno Turian has proved that turians DO dance.

Haha, ahh god, it's so bad, and yet, I watched the whole thing XD It's almost as bad as the Garrus Gets Fired video that I watched two hundred times and still laughed at.
Glad you took my comment in good humor, I accidentally offended someone on DA today and was hoping to not come off like a bad art critic I saw another gif of a turian dancing that was almost even better, but I haven't been able to find it since I came across it about a month ago. Plus I felt a little connection to your obsession over cleaning up line arts

Hehe I think if you're gonna post stuff on the internet, y'need a thick skin. I'm pretty hard to offend usually. XD And yeah, that video is addictive. There's just something about dancing turians...

If I don't think about the line art, I don't have to clean it... must not think about the line art... ¬_¬

You can't not think about it! It stares at you with it's smug attitude, knowing it looks all sketchy and unclean. Bah, this is why I've started using a tablet after fifteen years of good old pencil and paper. Undo/redo function, to the rescue!

Someone needs to make a video like that of some rather serious turian fellow doing the ShepShuffle. Actually, that probably already exists..
