This piece features a female version of Cmdr. Shepard from the video game series Mass Effect, along with Lt. James Vega from Mass Effect 3.

The first time I saw this guy in a screenshot with his tight t-shirt and bulging muscles, I laughed. I laughed because I thought he was such a huge and overused cliché, one that we've seen and still see regularly in videogames: the beefcake Marine. Well, Bioware managed to make James into a lot more than that. And I totally fell for him because he is just so loveable, funny and awesome.

But you know what? Even though Bioware threw us some really funny and flirty dialogue between female Shepard and James, they still didn't make him a potential love interest. Why, Bioware, why?! :sniff: Thankfully though, we still have fanart and fiction to fall back on. :)

This piece was made using XNALara and A LOT of retouching in Photoshop CS6. I gotta say, I think it's my best 3D work so far.

Thank you so very much! You're the first person to make that comment about the emotional aspect of this picture and I really appreciate it because I didn't want this piece to be strictly sexy and/or erotic. I was actually hoping it would convey and illustrate some kind of emotional bond between the two characters, which is not an easy thing to do with those 3D models. :)

I like the picture ^^!! I want to think that BioWare Might give us a chance to romance him in the upcoming DLC for ME3, but somehow I think that will be always a dream that will never come true :'(. We still have some fanfics about him, even if it's not much.

Thank you! Did you see the new DLC screenshot that Bioware issued where we see Shepard having a drink with a few people somewhere on the Citadel? It's so funny because the first time I saw this image, I noticed a really good-looking man standing near the couch where Sheppard is sitting and I was like: "Who is this babe?... oh wait... OMG, it's James!!!" :D

I didn't even recognize him at first because he seems to be wearing some kind of formal jacket - which is something that's never happened before. And when I read later that Bioware is going to include some romance in the DLC, I thought: "Why would they dress up James in that manner if not to help him seduce Femshep?! I mean, think about it... I could be totally wrong but that screenshot gave me a little hope. :dance:

I think that I want to tear it apart and do this and that with him xD.
Well, I don't know if BioWare will be so kind to us and make out our desires come true, but let's wait and pray for it ^o^!!!!!!!

So, did you or someone already find out if it's possible to romance James Vega?
Because I want to know it, if I can't romance him I'll never again play ME3!!
