Description Another request came in, this time for Liara and a Male Shepard.

The only thing I had was the view from Liara's office and that's about it. Then I started to think about Liara herself, a character I am not that into (never romanced her).

The picture that started to become clear in my mind was a tender moment between Shepard and Liara with her being torn on so many things. I wanted intimacy and yet distance because that's how I see her. As troubled.

Added a glow to the picture because it suits the office lighting.

Will tweak the picture at some point no doubt but in all honesty, I've stared at it long enough and I'm going cross-eyed lol

Thrust me, Liara is the best choice for romancing! Try reading some of the fan art here, like "Liara's Story" or "The Liara Chronicles" and you will see what I mean...

I'm not a big fan of Liara, but I love this pic. Liara looks so torn between joy and pain, and poor Shep just has this air of "please talk to me, tell me what to do". *sniffle* so sad!

As I am totes a DudeShep/Liara fan, this has me in delighted little gigglefits. Most unbecoming. All your fault.

LOVELY manip, in other words.

This one is great!
MaleShepards do indeed not get enough Liara.
Can't really blame the artists though, with so male MaleShepards being ungrateful bastards who run of to Tali.
Anyway this one is going to my favourites list!

Thanks for the fav and this one was requested by someone who wanted to see a MaleShep/Liara combo as well

Ahh it was a request for someone else. After checking your profile (always do that when finding a drawing I like) I was wondering why an Alenko-Fangirl would be taking the time for such a good MaleShep & Liara picture.

It's a very interesting picture, clearly an uncomfortable moment between the two. Liara is further away from Shepard now than when he was dead.

I really should just move your entire gallery into my favorites section. I keep not, cause I like Checkmate SO MUCH I feel the need to highlight it, but really, I loves them all. So pretty!

You even make Sheploo interesting. And poor conflicted Liara...

You captured that distance very well. It's a distance I feel every time I see her *one tear*

Well I hope Bioware will provide the comfort through a Liara DLC for you guys.

Well I sorta cheated on her with Miranda so there probably won't be a future for us.

I likes. And the symbolism is definitely appropriate. It seems like Liara is very internally conflicted in ME2.


What's your workflow? Do you pose the meshes or just look for the perfect angle to take a screenshot from?

Bit of everything I suppose. I dunno the proper terms, I just call it puzzling

Well it did make me appreciate Sheploo a bit more, though I prefer Kaidan still
