Where will you be when this is through

If all, if all goes as planned,

Will you redeem my life again? "

An asari alien from the game Mass Effect for :iconrahll: :hug:

Words cannot express what a good friend to me you have been. You are undoubtedly one of the nicest people I have met in my life, so I hope this compensates somewhat for my obvious lack of awesomeness. Mass Effect is an awesome game. :hug: I know I was supposed to sleep, but SOME of it had to be a surprise, haha. :lol:

But hooooolllyyyy shit. It's finally done. This has to be the single most complicated, difficult piece I've ever done, and I'm damn happy not to have to look at it again in photoshop for awhile.

Thanks to :iconadonihs: for the help, and :iconrahll: , even though it's for you, this wouldn't be what it is without your help. You guys are the best, two of my biggest inspirations :hug:

Usage without my permission is not allowed.

EDIT: I fixed her eye and some of her face, it was really bugging me, the eye wasn't showing the lower lid curving around her eye and the highlights on the lids were too stark. I also ran a filter over the planet to smooth out some of the obvious grainies.

That is absolutely amazing! You have all this finite detail across the picture, but it only adds to the beauty of the amazing asari, rather than being a distraction from her.
How did you make such an amazing background? It’s gorgeous!
Epic work of art!
Faved.

The background... I did the planets using a tutorial on here under the keywords "planet tutorial." The nebulas are all just lots of experimenting, and the Normandy was added in as a final touch. reflection is a blurred out city on a screen layer. The window, window frame, and reflections are all on seperate layers... pretty much all the objects are on their own layer. So many layers. Augh. I hate that word now. :faint: I am going to go get some sleep!

Thanks for the comments :heart: !

Ah, cool, thanks for the planet tutorial, I didn’t even think to look for one.
I thought that’s probably what you did; the whole layer effect makes this work look like an official piece.
Having the Normandy in this work is this little touch of gold, and I love her eyes, so full of expression. Just. Plain. Awesome.
You’re very welcome! :glomp:

This looks amazing, definitely one of my favorite pieces from you. The expression on the figure really adds a tremendous amount to this piece.
:iconthedarkbanditking:
This is good. I really like the reflections on the glass. They really make it seem more realistic and the stars look good. Well done!! ;)
:iconcaelestistrucido:
thanks so much! I am really happy with how this turned out, I don't think I can look at it for awhile though xD
