Anyone else think that the first couple look like Natalie Portman?
Otherwise number 4 would get my vote. That, or Pinky Pie shep.

BioWare Letting Fans Choose Mass Effect 3's FemShep
- Thread starter Logan Westbrook
- Start date
Talented voice actors can do a range of voices so not all of their characters have to sound the same. I didn't even realize Femshep's voice actor was the same as Bastilla's until a friend told me (though I recognized Carth Onasi's voice with Kaiden).UberaDpmn said:
People have similar voices, so it's normal if two unrelated characters from different games sound alike but if two characters from two different games from the same company would be modeled on the same person and look alike, people would see Femshep and think about Bastilla and such a thing could break the immersion.
I'm pretty sure most of the Mass Effect fan community are people who played KOTOR, if someone likes Mass Effect and didn't play KOTOR, that person is missing out.

Why did they fuckin' bother to begin with? Why didn't they just keep the original default face like they did with Vanderloo? I mean, hell, Hale's still returning so the fact that the default female Shep uses her likeness shouldn't matter!
This. I'd vote for 5 (if I were willing to interact with Facebook, which I'm not) for the superior hairstyle rather than the color. I'd prefer dark hair and darker skintone to go with it, but I'm always a sucker for the mussed-hair-over-eyes look.Richardplex said:
Ok, I know this really isn't the place for bringing this up, so I won't go on a rant about it: I'll simply comment that they're all wearing eyeliner. Draw what conclusions you will.
On topic: 5, though we'll have to assume that her hair tie broke while she was reducing Reapers to scrap metal. I would seriously lol if Bioware made a game where if you customise your character to have long hair parts of it will actually obscure the heads up display as you play. Not saying it'd make a good game mechanic, just that it would be entertaining.

I take it these choices are only for the default Femshep, and that we can still customise her appearance? Because if not, then this is a bad sign of the rpg elements of the game being removed.
Yes because if somebody is blond they are obviously 'Generic', 'Transparent' and thick. If you think that due to her hair don't vote for her, but most people I know don't bat an eyelid at the blond stereotype.Rzepik said:
I don't think it's so much the colour of the hair, more rather, the style.Cat of Doom said:
She has thick black eye-liner and the hair from a shampoo advert, she doesn't look like a soldier.
Hell, even though I like the first picture, I still think they all look a little too young to be Shepard. Shepard is in her early thirties, but these pictures make her look much younger.
well you could still customize male sheps couldnt you? I think so as by now alot of people already have the apearence of female shepared in their heads..Im sure Bioware is smart enough to know thisRandom berk said:
anyway alot of people are saying default wasnt that bad int he firsr place..while I agree I think the Idea is that in the first place they didnt even "bother" with female shepard which was kind of dissapointing
they realised it was a mistake and so are doing this to fix it
and blonde shepard isnt that bad!
