Creating a FemShep for Mass Effect for Eventual Import to Mass Effect 2

[SnowboticWolf92]

i made a really good fem shep cant imagin playing without her, plus i prefer the voice actress she is far better than the male voice actor in the first and second

[HAHAHAHAHAITSME]

i tried to make a chick look like me once (im a guy)

........

yeah, didn't end so well

[GallusYo]

I also prefer playing as femshep...i tried to do myself but damn is hard. So i decided to create my renegade femshep, young and beuty, thanks god you can modify imported shepards in ME2, then i can make her look a bit older for second part, and add a few scratches though the game add some automatically. And i think is far more better to see a fem but all the game, do not missunderstand me, i mean, is less tiring (for a man of course).

[GallusYo]

DAMN!!! finally i found a girl(s) who actually play Mass Effect, or Xbox in general...is so damn hard...nice girls!!! show the world you actually can be harcore gamers and still being women!!! Just wish i could know a gamer girl...she would be my dream girl.

[gamesith1990]

Could youdo a playthrough each mission whith youcreated character. Please it would be greately appriciated.

[MsJeStaR]

Every FemShep you see here has their own playthrough either in progress or completed. In fact, I will be uploading a montage/music video at some point for the blonde FemShep you see here, and also possibly for the first FemShep in this video.

[w0bbl3r]

i made one for both games (couldnt be arsed to play ME1 again just to import the character) that looked a bit older, because the voice and attitude of her just doesnt match that default "teenage girl" shepard you get.

harder, thicker cheekbones, the hair tied back, scraped to her scalp, dark brown hair, thicker lips, and stronger jaw.

a BIT like angelina jolie, but not as sexual (cos that wouldnt fit).

i thought my shepard was perfect, but thats how it goes, i suppose

[MsJeStaR]

I love the tight bun. I think it fits a career soldier woman. And I agree - default FemShep looks waaaaay too young for the voice. I would love to see your FemShep.

[w0bbl3r]

well thanks. might make me sound like a perv, but i am a guy.

i just thought the calvin klein model lookalike default mass effect shepard was way too good looking and perfect. and no matter what i did, he just looked like a cliche of a sci-fi marine, like from the movie aliens or something.

the only way to stop him looking like that was to make him look ridiculous, and thats not what i wanted.

[MsJeStaR]

lol. No, not pervy. I know a lot of dudes prefer to play as FemShep.

Haha. And yes, default MShep looks too good. And the MShep character creator is hard to tweak. I have as of yet to play with a MShep for ME2, but I think it might be a little easier to make a decent MShep with the new creator.

[w0bbl3r]

i never played either game all the way through with a male shepard. i just couldnt do it.

i played on pc, and there was a glitch in the game for the romance plot on my pc; if you were male, you couldnt talk to the woman (forgot her name) who you could romance, and if you were female you couldnt talk to kaidan (thats his name, right?). not that you couldnt romance them, you couldnt speak to them, it just locked the game up altogether.

so the only one you could romance was liara, either way

[480tm]

what is the music name ?

i love it

[samuraj637]

THIS IS MASS EFFECT 1

[lcmy]

Yes, and then?

[R4Akai]

I thought about to create

NOVA from Starcraft ghost - would pretty good hit the gameplay (with stealth modus)

OR

RIPLEY from Alien 1-4 - i guess, also a good choice^^ (matches good with the "u died once allready" story)

[DarkSigiles]

My infiltrator FemShep is awesome, a renegade bitch that kicks ass and doesn't take shit from anyone >=3 And no she's not the default face =p

[MsJeStaR]

i would love to see her!

[Kaboomaman]

DUDE!!I love this music!

[22Harvey22]

I love my male sheppard very proud of him..

If i had to rebuild him i think i would of made his face slightly less gaunt but meh.

He sort of looks like a half white/half japanese dude with dark hair and slight facial hair and violet eyes.. I took inspiration from liz taylors dark feature violet eyes.

His face matches his voice and personality perfectly.

[hrdkordisser]

wow, thats really lame, its a game, lol

[22Harvey22]

Your point?

[ciccialuis]

what song is this

[seannnooo]

when i made my male shephard, in game he looked nothing like he did in the character creator. he ended up looking like tiger woods. so i ended up with standard shephard

[aseticelite]

@seannnooo tell me about it. I can tell you that I spent (no joke) 10 hours total trying to design my shepard characters , sometimes like myself, sometimes different, sometimes cute femsheps , I only ended up making one good looking femshep.

[ChainsawGutsFuck]

Paragade Vanguard eh? Interesting choice! xddddddddddd

[SoulAlchemist]

i didnt even know she was default i know i changed some stuff up, but thats pretty much what my shepard looked like cuz i didnt like the guys features very much

[darkangelwithin]

lol this music sounds like its from the anime hack ROFL

[MrGameFanatic1]

@darkangelwithin lol yeah it dies :p

[PedroZoim]

What is the name of this japanese music?

[CookieMonzta1995]

I guess people just use the default FemShep because they cant be bothered to make there own or cant make there own when ME 2 comes out im going to spend ages trying to make my character look badass :D

[Firionia]

I believe you can re-make your chars face in ME2 when you load up the save.

[DarkSigiles]

My FemShep I spent quite some time making. But I didn't make her look like me, because if I did that she would look like a transvestite, since I'm a guy >__>

[ThatsLeoYKnow]

Kalafina! :D

[maluth25]

I like the song it goes along nicly with the vid.

Also i like how your femshep looks the defaults look horrable.

when ever i play a game that u can chose from a male and female i always play it twice and i prefer to play as a female. I found out that i like making them more than males and the story is always better in my opion.

[friedlish]

I actually really like that Shepard. She has character. :)

[MsJeStaR]

thanks! :)

[DragonflyandTheWolf]

interesting. I don't see why people would go with default female shepard. I always change her. Though I've only made two that I liked. As for male shepard. . . people say doing a custom male shepard is hard because all the options are ugly, but you just need to be patient in making him. I came out with a really decent custom male shepard. The default's not bad, but I prefer the one I made.

[MsJeStaR]

i don't know why people go with the default femshep anyway. she's kinda ugly imo.

[TronDevlin]

I agree, I dont like the defaults at all.

[HailSinbel]

Hmmm, she's nice, very nice, I mean, she looks like a pro mature soldier.

[MsJeStaR]

thanks! that was what i was trying to go for!

[gardenchair]

very pretty.

[MsJeStaR]

thanks! which one did you like best?

[gardenchair]

@MsJeStaR

I like the main one best. The one that looks like you!

[GamerRangerX]

UGLY AS HELL,but is doesn't matter is your shepard not mine.

[MsJeStaR]

you're entitled to your opinion. but you can't deny that my Sheps look way different than alot of the default-ish ones people use.

[jadenkorr15]

Me and my lil bro have awsome sheps! His guy and girl look great. And mine looks...7/10 but I'm. Making her better in me2

[7d7e7f7]

Idk I got my male shepard to look real handsome, but even when I tried making him look different three times he still ended up looking almost the same. Anyway that eyeliner is a little excessive no?

[Mizmo182]

My character from ME 1 looks like Lucas Black from Tokyo Drift and Jarhead lol, it took me ages to try not make him look fugly.

[DarthTirith]

Your looks can be changed, as can your class, at the start of Me2 when using a Me1 save. As for MaleSheps.. Yes, default or nothing, its far to much work to make anything that doesn't look like a ken doll from the 60s.

[ginafaloola]

Your last character reminds me of a younger Anjelica Huston a bit! Pretty cool. I got ME off Steam when it was on sale but I haven't been able to play it yet because my graphics card is just under the requirements. Sigh. I didn't think it would be an issue since I can run Dragon Age and I assumed since that was a newer release ... ah well. Just have to wait a little longer, I guess.

[dougarr]

still the custom male shepard is ugly ...im talking about mine... while the default male shepard is a real badass !

[bchapm]

The hair options in this game were absolutely terrible, for both genders. Hopefully they can improve on them for ME2

[MsJeStaR]

i agree. they all look like greasy plastic.

[noblue4u]

I'm pretty sure this doesn't carry over, that they'll start the character with the default male or female look and then allow them to change their look after the introduction of the Lazarus thing.

[MsJeStaR]

my impression was that your character appearance DOES import over, and you have the option to change it.

[M00nF0x]

Just out of curiosity...what song is playing in the vid?

[MsJeStaR]

Aria by Kalafina. They're a JPop band who does a lot of music for anime.

[M00nF0x]

Thanks so much :) I kinda got the whole Shep vibe from the song and wanted to listen to more while I did some writing :) Thanks so much!

[MsJeStaR]

No problem. They're very operatic and atmospheric. Very appropriate for Mass Effect/FemSheps everywhere. =p

[javierabegazo]

A+ :) Fantastic job my dear :) I'd love to see what you can do when we're able to make characters with the ME2 Character Creation too

Just saw your comment in MEforums, were you able to watch Blur in the super HD? I uploaded it on my profile here

[MortalLuc]

Javierabegazo, that's impossible. :P Somehow all the custom male characters in ME1 look much uglier than the standard John Sheppard, also graphic-wise. I think the standard John Sheppard has much more detail in his face than any possible custom-made male Sheppard. That's why after my first 2 custom-Sheppards, I decided to stick with the original Sheppard design in my later playthroughs.

[atleau]

I challenge you to try making a good looking male alternate Shepard in ME1. Never seen anyone after more than two years.

[MsJeStaR]

Haha. I accept your challenge. =p
