Mass Effect - Jack



Personal art of Mass Effect.
The seventh picture featuring Jack aka "Subject Zero"

I went for a classical model (and very poster like) back pose. Jack is kinda walking off after finished fight (in meant to resemble the last seconds of Deus EX HR trailer ). I took a lot of time to polish up the facial elements and tattoos. You can actually notice that the "human" tatoo at the back and the zipper from none-final version of Jack were added. They look so cool so I had to implement them. I also have conceptual versions with different hair styles.

No photo tracing or 3D models were used here. However I used the ME2 screenshots, model photo references for the hands, back as well as some small elements like stripes/belts. The original size is A4 with 300dpi. This is the fan and"skills-showing" portfolio art, so no copyright infringement was intended.

Mass Effect - Kasumi Goto



Personal art of Mass Effect.
The sixth picture featuring Kasumi Goto

Basically Kasumi is leaning against a metal wall structure with her arms crossed. It is an easy and very universal character's introduction pose which I think suits her .The whole art kinda consists of highly contrast between shadow and artificial light where the first element defines Kasumi's stealthy class and the latter one nicely exposes her outfit materials as well as some background elements. I went for more blue and green tint on this piece even though the DLC had different colors' scheme but I wanted it to be akin to Thane's artwork somehow.

No photo tracing, overpainting or 3D models were used here. However I used ME2 screenshots for references (outfit and facial elements) and textured brushes. I just realized how great the PS dry brush can be in creating material texture. The original size is A4 with 300dpi.
