Mass Effect: Andromeda’s characters have been criticized for looking, well, weird. Someone has fixed that with their mad Photoshop skills.
Female Ryder received the majority of the ridicule; it isn’t that she is hideous, but when you consider that she is based on the stunning model Jayde Rossi, you realize that there’s a bit of a problem.
The good news is, it’s nothing that a bit of Photoshop can’t fix! Check this out:
Ryder looks less swollen; these images look like a before and after shot of someone taking medication for an allergic reaction. The tweaks are subtle but come together to create a character who not only looks more attractive but also more real.
The Photoshop God is unknown but their skills are undeniable. I salute you.
Elsewhere on the internet, Peebee also gets a makeover:
While this image looks like it has been redrawn from scratch, it also shows a marked improvement on the original.
It just goes to show, there is a lot of talent out there. Kudos to the two fans who upstaged the professionals.
I know the animations are Bad but characters don’t have to look media rated Beautiful in everygame.
p.s the photoshop artwork is still good
I hear you. Honestly, I’m not mad at the original character designs, but I feel that the photoshopped ones just look more real to me – the eyes are less buggy looking. It’s the eyes.
Especially Peebee looks really lovely most of the time in the game – of course we can mock the art if we are searching for extra ugly screenshots. 😉
“It just goes to show, there is a lot of talent out there.”
Yeah…just very little still working for BioWare, unfortunately.
