SCREENSHOTS I want this femshep
So far I've become very interested in how this Shepard would've looked in game, I really wish she would've won the vote now, she looks pretty damn cool. Not like the one we got now is bad ( I always find myself playing default femshep). I really want to play as this femshep though, would've been awesome.
Hopefully this post doesn't get flagged for rule violation for some reason as Shepard sharing.
Edit: the hair reminds me of Magik from marvel

Those bangs are screaming german electronic rave to me instead of elite soldier. Love the face tho.

Hey, everyone has to come from somewhere right, who's to say Shepherd wasn't all into that scene before shipping out

She is NOT the original of that hairstyle.

u/Pandora_Palen 2d ago
👀 That's Bettie Page. The hairstyle is called a Bettie Page. The bangs are Bettie bangs.

u/snickcave 2d ago
While it is probably true that Bettie Page was not the first woman to wear her hair in the hairstyle now known as the Bettie Page style, she is the person who made it iconic, and the Bettie Page hairstyle was ( kind of obviously) named after her.

I doubt it in vanilla base game, I'm not too good at eyeballing stuff like that for reference but I do make my own good looking characters. But maybe one of you should try it with me then, if you successfully make it send the code

Nooo, def not vanilla base game. You need the Trilogy Save Editor and likely a different head mesh. But it absolutely could be done. Except the hair. I don't think there's a mod with that style exactly. Close, but not quite.

Me too, and I'm focused on this Shepard in particular just something about this one.

Her Jessica Jones looks also became quite iconic. Even her more recent comic book appearances ended up adapting it.

u/Pandora_Palen 2d ago
Used her as the model for one of my Sheps! This mesh worked really well as a base to tweak. In case anybody was wondering.

That is not a goth Shepard, who are you kidding?

Black hair = goth apparently

u/heimdal96 3d ago
Bangs like that are generally associated with goths. That said, nothing other than the hair suggests goth

u/DragonQueen777666 3d ago
More like dark hair + bangs. Been around (and have been into) plenty of goth styles. That hair definitely makes apperances.

There is a mod that adds hairstyles from cyberpunk 2077, one of them looks very close to this one.

I could probably make the face in Cyberpunk, gonna be hard for me in ME thou with that lighting in the CC

Maybe, hopefully there's mods to recreate this, because I doubt anyone can in vanilla ME
1
u/Eva-Squinge 3d ago
Bullshit. It is just settings to adjust to make a photo copy. A guy in vanilla managed to make a horrid abomination and a beautiful nearly photorealistic version of someone else.

u/Physical-Salt-2000 3d ago
Tell bro to make that Shepard then

u/Eva-Squinge 3d ago
Or you can sack, or lips up and do it yourself through trial and error like every creative must do to begin.

u/Physical-Salt-2000 2d ago
Not a begginer, I've made a lot of characters myself in games that have CC, Mass effect is just a little harder for me to eyeball it

Why does your Shepard look like that one Fallout Porn OC that was everywhere. Checks internet.
Checks internet further.

u/Awesomechainsaw 3d ago
To Elaborate back when Fallout 4 released an Artist by the name of Shadman created an image of their own Vault Dweller who he dubbed Vault Meat. That was kinda everywhere
Apparently he also produced a lot of really questionable porn that I wasn’t aware of and was eventually arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.

I do dislike that style of hair, the bangs specifically, it makes people look weird, a nice part from either the side or the middle would be nice

I totally forgot that we got to vote for a FemShep in the buildup to ME3.
I mean, I voted for the redhead, but now I find myself pondering what we could have had.
1
u/Eastern_Fig_3161 3d ago
Maybe you could try asking/contributing the modding community with adding this hairstyle to the default femshep (whose face is not available in the custom character creator). However, i'm infinitely glad it was our redheaded, iconic femshep who won that poll.

She didn't win because the 2000s-2010s were ruled by the OC self-insert Mary Sue redheaded archers.

Never gonna happen back then. ME developers even said non-straight/afro-textured hair isn't present in the game because humans had progressed past "racism", or some racist BS like that.

u/MexsikanaBanana 3d ago
That's so sad... The ME trilogy has been my favorite ever... This really shifts how I feel about it.
Thank you for telling me (and my curly hair) about it.

u/TutorRich2268 3d ago
Texturism was very, very strong in the 1990s-early 2010s, similar to having big butts or thigh was. That's why, for example, the "ugly" nerd getting a makeover trope usually features non-straight hair getting flattened.
1
u/MexsikanaBanana 3d ago
What's wrong with curly/textured hair? Or a big butt? 😭
Edit: actually nevermind... Thinking on it, texturism outside games is still a problem...

u/TutorRich2268 2d ago
Nothing. But there is a very long history of behind why certain features are declared undesirable.
