Recently bought a trio of Mass Effect figs to represent my preferred party. The Tali fig wasn't bad, but it wasn't *right* either. So I did what I could to fix it. The one toward the right (with the omni-tool) is my sister's, unpainted, the way mine came in the box. The one to the left (with the close-up of the back of the hood on the far right) is the one I painted, in case the somewhat sloppy linework isn't a dead giveaway. It's a learning process, and I'm getting better. At least I didn't have to bust out the green stuff and give her hair or anything. Although that gives me an idea to maybe buy another Tali and a Miranda, say, kitbash 'em and maybe do a helmet-less Tali...
...nah, I'm not *that* ambitious. For now.

Update: Open for commissions if you want something similar done. See my front page.

Glad you like it! I do commissions on figures if you feel strongly about fixing them up. :)

I definitely love your modded version much better! It just gives her so much more life/realism to the actual character in game. The standard version is so...blah :C Like they couldn't be bothered.

Thanks very much! I couldn't just let it go on being so drab and unlike her. :p

No, dude, no, don't buy a Miranda for Tali's face, why would you do that to Tali I thought you liked her.

Honestly, if I hadn't been present and actually observed you painting this, I wouldn't be able to believe this was hand-painted. This came out absolutely GORGEOUS and that's not a word I throw around carelessly. I'll probably be called a heretic for saying this and ostracized by the entire fan community, but I actually like the dark purple base with the violet pattern here better than the lighter lavender she has in-game, I think it's a better contrast and it looks absolutely beautiful. I also see you touched up the gold and added the kind of mesh pattern for the black parts of the suit, definitely an improvement.

I have to admit though, I am a little shocked and aghast at the fact that you got rid of her omni-tool. It's her source of power!
