Mass Effect 3 Meme

Finally finished this massive ME3 meme of madness!

Created by the blank meme is located here: [link]

I spent the last 6 months*, on and off, working on this. Trying to teach myself digital art. What better way to practice than a huge meme about one of my favorite games? Mass Effect!

*which means, I started before the EC was announced. Some of my answers may not seem as relevant as they used to be.

don't use any of my images without permission!

***breakdown***
1) Lissa, Galactic badass. She also slaps a little lip gloss on before battle.
2) The Major has become very capable. can I throw enough hearts and girly crap around this? no..
3) A resource needs to be gathered? That tall pointy cliff needs to be climbed? Random stranger #12 needs help? Lissa is there!
4)Thank goodness for the auto-fish-feeder in ME3! And jellyfish! Baby hanar!
5)a. cure - saved. but turns out they make a cure either way so it didn't *really* matter. (*Eve)
5)b. Queen -saved. but turns out they make a clone anyways so it didn't *really* matter. (*small change in resource)
5)c. Base - destroyed. I think there was an extra resource on my PT that kept the base, otherwise I didn't notice any difference.
6) what can I say? Seth Green. mmmm
7) She knew he'd come around.
8) Krogan Smash! Krogan Kill! Ah my baby all grown up and kickin' ass.
9) Time for a pin-up Edi!
10) And now straight to the toilet humor.
11) Shepard has got to keep everyone in tip top shape ready to fight or die! (I know this conflicts with #13c... oops)
12) As an infiltrator, staying in cover is essential.
13)a. Finally got to kill that SOB. I didn't put you on the council.
13)b. Haven't read the books...
13)c. During ME2's Suicide Mission Thane Krios valiantly gave his life leading a fire squad. Kasumi, Jack, Kelly and half the crew also gave their life to stop the Collectors.
14) I cried.
15) Practice shooting with her BFF Garrus always cheers Lissa up.
16) the Medusa stage of the Hanar, they change to female and no longer leave the homeworld.
17) Auto-dialogue, if I want to watch a movie, I will. I want to play a game here, not watch Shepard say things I didn't tell her to say.
18) Besides making sweet sweet love to Kaidan? (youtube [link] ) Being able to unite the Geth and Quarians was fabulous.
19) not a fan. I did try it once to get 'the perfect ending' for PT#3, it was okay but I'd rather play a game by myself.
19b)text in meme
20) Keep throwing logic puzzles at it and wait for the inevitable meltdown.
21) I always knew Lissa would give her life to save the galaxy. (but she ended up destroying it all when the Mass Relays exploded... lovely. Yes yes.. they removed that part in the EC.)
(OH and yes, somehow I combined Garrus' ME2 and ME3 armor. I.. don't know how that happened, but there you go.)
22) I've always been fascinated by the Batarians and want to know more about their culture. Too bad Lissa blew up their homeworld in Arrival. too bad so sad. buncha jerks. Jerks I would like to know more about.
23) It's a meme within a meme! did I blow your mind?
