Commission for ":iconflatlinedreams: 's

This commission is based on the "Sole Survivor" role in Mass Effect. The piece shows Shepard having a nightmare about the events that took place on the day of the attack. Shepard wakes up from the Nightmare grabs his sidearm and shoots out the screen across the room which happens to have a reflection of the lights that are in "night mode". The reflections is similar to that of the glowing ball on the thresher maw's head. Jack is there to comfort an exhausted Shepard.

concept and idea were from ~flatlinedreams I just put pen to tablet.

Created in Photoshop CS4

Wow.

I just...

Wow.

This is incredible. I love how it looks like the nightmare is still hanging over the room, even though Shepard has woken up. On the rare occasion that I have a nightmare, I always wake up with a feeling of terror or dread, like whatever was in the nightmare was in the room, or hanging over it...permeating it. Often, I'll have to turn on a light and read for a while before I can get back to sleep.

I like that Jack is there for Shepard. The Mass Effect trilogy has many great characters and romances, but Jack is one of my favourites. There's a depth and even sensitivity to her character that touches me. If I were in Shepard's place, I'd have a hard time NOT trying to help her, seeing as she's been used and abused by everyone in her life. I'd want to give her someone she could rely on for a change

Very, very well done. Outstanding.

This is amazing. Really fantastic detail, I love the dream bleeding into reality below, and perspective of the memories in the dream is brilliantly done.

Fantastic and amazing work, I'm kinda speechless <3
