I was suddenly missing my German shepherd, so I drew this.. ;_;
You can interpret this how you want. Maybe a sequel to this?
Kaidan has longer hair here… Hopefully it still looks like him..
The only thing he has left is her namesake.

“Startin’ to regret ever becoming a soldier.”
“I don’t like the sound of where this is going.”
“yea’, starting to like the idea of dying a stupid, happy civilian.”
“Knock it off, you’re crazy. Now get over here and help me decode this hunk of crap.”
“C’mon, Tori. Think about it. Civilian life, you and some Krogan mamacita, little blood rage babies.”
“Now I know you’re crazy.”
“And I’d be livin’ on the beach somewheres, drinking out of coconuts served by some fine young, tanned local in tight little swim trunks.”
“What’s a coconut?”

You've got your reasons And me, I've got mine But all the reasons I gave Were just lies To buy yourself some time An ocean of noise I first heard your voice Now who here among us Still believes in choice? Not I No way of knowing What any men will do An ocean of violence Between me and you You've got your reasons And me, I've got mine But all the reasons I gave Were just lies To buy myself some time

Reblogging from my personal simply to show what posting non-sourced fanart without permission does to the artists.
Some people apparently think that “it’s not that big of a problem” and artists need to “learn how to deal”. The problem is so big that the artists themselves are giving up, simply because they think disrespect for artists is so big that this won’t change.
Think about that if you ever feel like posting non-sourced fanart.
Wow. As an artist, I think this is one of the most legitimately heart-breaking things that can happen to an artist - when the artist himself/herself could be getting so much more respect, and someone takes it away because of greed or laziness.
Like, I don’t think a lot of editors or copiers understand. There’s something that comes with seeing your own work taken as if it were never your own, like an old, prized possession stolen and being paraded around. You can go ahead and prove it’s your own, but seeing that someone else with it, as if they owned it all along, can do a lot to you.
And then, even worse is when the artist (like these) has no will to go back and get it, because they’ve given up, because the thief is so rampant and has done so much to the prize that it’s unrecognizable, or because the artist literally doesn’t know how to say, “I would like to claim that as mine. Please stop saying it is yours.” And by then, the picture has gone around tumblr a time or two, and it might be almost unrecognizable compared to the original, and there will be so many chances lost for others to see that artist’s work.
It can take hours, maybe days, for an artist to do the piece, but it only takes a few minutes for a blogger to skip over something as simple as sourcing or editing and to rip away the respect that the artist worked so hard to earn.
Please, source your pictures. It’s a matter of copying and pasting a URL into a blog - much easier than saving and re-uploading a picture.
And don’t edit without permission. If you like a work of art, why would you want to change it?

I just went back through over 900 liked posts and dug out all the art tutorials so i can keep track of them. I guess this might be helpful to some of you guys, so here you go.
Here we go then!
Freeware
Alchemy - this is a really fun program. You play around making abstract shapes until you start to see something in them, kind of like a Rorschach test. Then you use the shapes as a base to draw it from.
MyPaint - a pretty decent painting program that also has the benefit of working on Unix systems.
openCanvas 1.1 - I haven’t used openCanvas in years but it was a nice program with a pretty unique feel to it.
ArtRage - Only used this a couple of times donkey’s years ago just before I got oC, but I’ve heard good things about it.
The GIMP - In a similar vein to Photoshop, but free. I couldn’t get on with it when I tried it out a few years ago, but it’s pretty popular and is available on Unix systems and Macs.Sketchbook copic: a bit different program
Not-free-ware
Photoshop - Standard painting fare. Probably the most flexible program (particularly the latest versions) but not designed to act in a “natural” way. If you’ve used it for painting versus something like Painter you know what I mean. Who the fuck pays for it though? Google “Photoshop tumblr masterpost” and take your pick.
Paint Tool Sai - Far more affordable and definitely worth paying for if you can. The brushes are very decent (especially when they’ve been tweaked a little), the gui is simple and intuitive, and I dare you to find a program with which making smooth lineart is easier.
Corel Painter - My program of choice for most things. More tools than you could ever possibly use and pretty cheap on a student license, providing that you can prove you’re a student! It’s got a few bugs but if you want realism or a more natural feel than PS or SAI this is the program for you.Anatomy

Walter was there too but he decided to do what he always does and make EVERYTHING CRASH….
I think it shows that I played KoA:Reckoning while waiting for ME3 because my dokkalfar ended up looking a lot like my Shep…y’know, with elf ears and face tattoos. I MISS FABLE III for whatever reason too, but alas I don’t have my xbox anymore…
