When I first got outstanding sci-fi gaming masterpiece Mass Effect, I spent over an hour creating my perfect Gillian Anderson based character for the game. Unfortunately I had no idea how good she was going to turn out and never thought to record the creation settings.
Being quite content with my creation I uploaded some videos of her on YouTube -
However I then received multiple requests for the settings which further agitated my regret that I never thought to make a record of them. But I promised to try and recreate her and share the settings with those that requested them. But my first few attempts were horrible, she was close but had some hideous defects, like a broken nose.
With the new downloadable content being released today I decided to try again, and after about 2 hours (longer than the original creation I may add) of creating, recording settings, playing, making notes of facial errors, recreating and making the appropriate changes. I finally got her REALLY close to the original. Thanks to the fantastic depth of the Mass Effect character creation engine it is pretty much impossible to recreate her exactly. But this one is pretty close to my original Gillian Shepard.
For this second play through I will be playing on the hardcore difficulty setting and trying out the soldier class as apposed to my original vanguard. The game is well worth several play throughs, game of the year in my books.
If anyone else would like to create a Gillian Anderson-a-like character for Mass Effect, I have uploaded the settings here -
Yeah I know, slack as fuck. Blame me, Dan finished this strip about a month ago and I keep forgetting to put it up. We have a new project non-comic related that is part of the problem.
The other part of the problem with these delays are the fact that I am about to become a father, and I have started playing Phantasy Star Universe again.
I'll try and get the strip back to a regular schedule soon. Maybe monthly. Although I think most readers gave up checking for new strips months ago. lol.
Expeact the new strip tomorrow, it's almost done. Off to see the Foo Fighters at Madison Square Garden tonight :-D
