You do some amazing work, I see. A little constructive critique although this may have been purposeful on your part: did you mean to have only his head drawn with clear and sharp lines and detail? It's just it's a bit of a sharp transition. Please note that this is nit-picking, because as it is, this picture is jaw-dropping not least because you've gone to the effort of making Garrus have a body that fits the shape we see when he's wearing clothing. It's reassuring not to see an Adonis body structure. Well done! I really love the abstract background too, and the way you've used a web of lines to provide the perception for the origin of light in the piece.
Now for why I really came here! This is a bit complicated so bear with me.
I admin a few Facebook fanpages.
First I admin Mass Effect Female Shepard, which means I'm always on the look out for FemShep-related things, alongside my co-admin doing the same.
Secondly I admin Mass Effect Miranda Lawson - I'm sole admin for that page but again the same broadly applies: I'm always after fanart of Miranda, but also futuristic/Mass Effect style fashion creations/concepts, feminism stuff (Miranda's had to fight for a lot in life, looking the way she does), and space/anti-agapic/future tech articles (because she's first and foremost a scientist). I post to her page 'in character', you see, so her interests are what I post.
THIRDLY... and this is where this piece by you caught my attention, I also presently co-admin a page called Garrus Vakarian Mass Effect. I'm only temping - the first admin asked for help just whilst she is backpacking in Australia. As such I'm looking out for the occasional Garrus-related item to post to the page or to its albums.
That last one is the hat I'm wearing when I ask you today: "Please may I upload this to the albums of a fanpage I admin?"
I've known of the Garrus page for many years and the Admin is a kind soul. When I first started towing the line (when I first became sole admin of MEFS) and posting only fanart that I'd collected permission for, the admin of this Garrus page too recognised the need to try to give artists the notoriety they deserve and means (links back to originals) for them to gain more fans and potential fan commissions (some raise money doing this). I don't know if she asked artist's permissions, but I know she went to every effort to make sure anything she added to albums was traceable back to the person who created it.
So I would do exactly that.
Apologies for this long-winded explanation, but I don't want to post as a fanpage admin, mislead you into believing that's "my page" and so judge it by my character, but I want to tell you that as far as I know, the person who will take over the page when she comes back, is a thoroughly decent human being who will continue to treat your creations and you as creator with the respect you deserve.
Both of us have run our pages for upwards of 4 years now. Here's the link to her page, where I'd be adding your work (if you gave me permission to do so) so you can have a look around: www.facebook.com/pages/Garrus-β¦
Thank you for taking the time to read, and if you decide Facebook isn't the place for your works I will totally understand. If by chance you actually have already posted this piece to Facebook yourself, I'd appreciate a link to it so I can share that instead! That way I will draw fans directly to your page, potentially.
Kind regards,
Tree Wyrm.
