Final sketch for Admiral Bali

Hello!

Here is the final version for Admiral Bali. Don't worry, she will beef up a little more in the inking phase.


I changed the outfit a bit from the previous version. She is wearing a string bikini and a belt-corset thing. I thought she looks too sexy for her, but since she doesn't need to wear that suit again, she surely would want to show the maximum of skin possible to her dear Shepherd.


What do you think?

Final sketch for Admiral Bali

Thank you for your support! I am trying my best!

Heh, it's all good. That's why you do all these sketches and different colour scheme tests and stuff, to find out what works and to help you zero in on what you want. And based on everything I've seen thus far, I'd say you most certainly do not suck at colours! :) But I know what you mean, figuring out what colours go well with which other colours and what looks right for the character (or whatever you're colouring) can be tough. Though if that's the case then that can sometimes be another advantage of sticking to the original colour scheme (or at least partly); someone else has already done the work for you! :p Again though, I'm sure that even if you're not entirely sure about certain things right now, it'll turn out great in the end!

Also cool! Something like that would certainly give extra incentive to play through multiple times and see every scene (though I imagine that won't be a problem for most people anyway :p ). Secret content in games is always fun to find.

The Alternate202

Camel gave a nice idea. I think some circuit lines and sockets here and there would look nice. I will make sample with and without them.

ReddyHeart

I will make some color schemes. I confess I am bad with colors. Which color combines with what, etc. We will figure this out together.

ReddyHeart

You all gave me some nice ideas! I think we can create something like a "secret files" section in the gallery where we can have picture and small stories about the girls and her growth process, like a diary written by the girls. It would be a nice addition to force you people to play every scene of the game. Nice idea indeed!

ReddyHeart

just to clarify I mean simple wires not the super tattoos mack has and even that is optional.

camel

I think she'd look fine just with regular purple skin without needing too many extra details. Scales might make her look too odd or reptilian, and could also possibly lead to a lot of extra work/hassle in the same way as Mack's tattoos did. I feel like her skin being purple is already enough of a unique feature that makes her stand out from the other characters as it is without the need for too much extra.

The Alternate202

Hmm, it doesn't seem like I can reply directly to your comment from here. But that could work, and yellow is also a part of her regular ME2 colour scheme already as well, so that's good. I was going to say that as a proponent of keeping things as close to the original look as possible in most cases (so that the character is still recognisable, with visual cues and design elements that are reminiscent of the original look, or call back to it), that it might still be good to have at least part of her outfit be purple, but then I realised that her exposed purple skin might already have that aspect of her appearance covered already. But I can see why it might be one of those cases where it's difficult to nail down the right colours. At least you've got the actual design down though, so hopefully now it'll just be a case of trying some different looks and seeing what you think works best.

The Alternate202

Don't worry, if it's some suit-ripping you're after, I'm sure that one way or another the gallery will provide. :)

The Alternate202

That would be really cool! As you may have already guessed by now, I'm certainly not one to say no to more opportunities to see her rip her suit apart! :p If the scenes took place in first-person but you wanted to see/show the girls at some point, like when Bali was ripping her suit apart, maybe they could find/use a mirror, or have one of those floating cameras they have in the ME universe with them to document their adventures, or possibly have the perspective switch to someone else who's also there looking at them (like a generic soldier or something, depending on what the girls are doing in the scene). And as for how you could present the scenes, maybe Shepherd could be questioning the girls about where they've been/what they've been up to, and then you could go into those scenes like a flashback, perhaps, as they tell him the story. Either way, just a few ideas that may or may not be of use.

The Alternate202

I was thinking a recording that tali gave sheperd and accessable after the game in the gallery

sorry, pink skin an cyber implants nothing major I might go with something like gold wires kinda like what your doing with mack

I just got a look at tali's face on deviant art based on the picture from mass effect 3 <a href="http://unicron9.deviantart.com/art/Mass-Effect-3-Tali-photo-290517239" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://unicron9.deviantart.com/art/Mass-Effect-3-Tali-photo-290517239</a>

You did read my mind! She will remove her faceplate/helmet to Shepherd on her event. Now, how would be her face, that's is another thing. I will make some sketchs about it, I will put a SPOILER tag on the post.

ReddyHeart

Nice idea! It would be nice to show her ripping her old suit. I am writing the scenes for the second act and I think it would be nice to show their adventures on first person, playing as the girls. I need to think how I would present them in the game. It would work like an act 1.5, between act one and two.

ReddyHeart

Thanks!

ReddyHeart

Yeah, a cleaner look is always better. And now she is showing more muscles. I am concerned about the color, previously i chose white. I think something yellow-ish would look good.

ReddyHeart

Most people draw her with a purple skin. But I agree, she should look different. I thought in putting some marks on her skin, or maybe some scales?

ReddyHeart

I think she doesn't need the mask either if she's kicking the suit to the curb. Kinda doesn't make sense to keep wearing the mask if she doesn't need the rest of the suit. It could even be a big moment, showing her face to Shepard for the first time.

tropetweeter

here is a thought. it might be nice to see the moment where tali realizes that she does not need the suit anymore and thus(deciding to remove the suit in style) she flexes ripping the suit apart with here muscles. just as a side thing another extra

camel

Oh. My. God. ... perfect! :)

Van Dermonde

Looks really cool! I like that the shoulder and neck area is a bit less "cluttered" and more simplified than the previous sketch, while still retaining all of the same design elements. And I also like how the circular clips or pins on the cape are attached to her bikini top as well, keeping it reminiscent of that part of her original outfit. And yeah, I agree that now that she doesn't have to wear her original outfit again that she might want to choose something a bit more revealing. After all, there's no point in having all those big new muscles if she can't show them off! :p

The Alternate202

I'll say this i'm thinking grey skin purple cloths gold highlights. that is what I'm thinking, she is not an asari she should not look like one. that said i'll go with the majority So my fellow patrons what say you?
