Mass Effect: Turian Agent

"The Turians were the last of the Citadel species to join the Council. The Turians gained this position after defeating the Krogan for the Council during the "Krogan Rebellions," employing a salarian-developed biological called the Genophage which virtually eliminated the possibility of new Krogan births and caused that species to go into a steady decline.

Most also have painted-on markings on their faces whose design and color denote which colony or system they were born or raised in. There are some Turians who do not have face markings and are derogatorily known as "bare-faced."


Turians have a reputation for skill and bravery in combat, but are not considered bloodthirsty. In combat, Turian units are highly adaptable and yet highly disciplined. Turian units do not break, no matter how disadvantaged; they will retreat and withdraw if necessary, but will do so in an orderly fashion, setting up vicious rear-guard actions and ambushes along the way. A rigid code of honor and strict discipline are the hallmarks of any Turian officer and soldier. This includes humane treatment of prisoners and conquered enemies. A Turian unit will never willingly leave behind one of their own, no matter what the cost of going back to retrieve their comrade. Turian society in general is very honor-bound, concerned with the performance of one's duty, regardless of one's role in society. All Turians work for the glory of the state and are all state-employed in some way. Military service is required for all Turian citizens, as well as client races who wish to become full Turian citizens."

Just beat Mass Effect. This is just a cleaned sketch of a Turian Agent. Just got inspired; All the races in that game are super cool and unique, and designed so stylishly. This is the first of several. Shading came out okie doke as well and the piece isn't to bad. Ill probably do the Asary Commando and Krogan Battlemaster next.
