Once again thank you for the hard work, and an amazing job. Your mods really captivate character identities and formulate them into actual armor, it always felt strange to me how hard samara's missions and life was, and how she faced all of it in her vanilla armor lol, I'll be sure to download this mod on my next ME2 playthrough. Also, sorry if you're the first person I ask this but it literally just popped in my mind, where would you direct someone who wants to start modding Mass Effect on their own? Specifically on the armor/cosmetics modding side of things? Like retextures or even armor model modifications/scultping etc.
I'll be happy to give you some links! Starting off, the Legendary Explorer Wiki has many tutorials and resources to get started. You can download Legendary Explorer (I recommend nightly) directly from the tools tab in ME3Tweaks. I use blender for my model and mesh work, and GIMP and Photoshop for my texture editing and recoloring. If you're new to blender, I suggest watching the blender donut series to get you used to the program.
I also suggest joining the Mass Effect Modding discord. There are help channels to get direct help with any questions you have on mod dev. I think that covers the basics.
Thanks! He's a custom sculp I did from Default Male Shepard's head in blender, I gave him the beard from Hairy Sheploo, grabbed assets from various other mods and games (piercings from Cyberpunk, hair from a skyrim mod), and used the Custom Head Mesh Framework to get him added into the game.
It's an involved process, but worth it to get my dream canon Shepard into the game.
Damn, these are some great armours. I've used Samara's New Armour ever since I found it since just cause you're a biotic doesn't mean you need to have your tits hanging out and paint a big red target on your unprotected chest (Jack gets a pass because everything she does is a 'f*#@ you' to everyone around her), but more gorgeous variety is always welcome! Vasir's armour looks absolutely perfect on her <3
Thank you! I also love Samara's New Armor, it's so lovely :) Vasir's armor is definitely a favorite of mine to add to various characters, so I'm glad you like it on her!

However, I'll be happy to link you some blender tutorials and our modding wiki so that you can do it yourself!
