Damn right! But bioware won`t allow that - motherfuckers!

Just curious. Is this a romance portrait? I couldn't tell, admittedly

Nice. At least there is some good fanart to make up for the fact that Tali isn't a bisexual romance option (which should have been, given her personality and admiration of Shepard regardless of gender)
Also, one thing on your piece I found off was Tali's body. It seemed wider (not fat) than she is in the game. Otherwise everything else was great

Yeah the option would have been nice, same with Jack. You think she'd be all over FemShep, but nope!
I see what you mean about her body. I adjusted it a bit, hope it looks better

Yeah, Jack was actually SUPPOSED to be a bisexual romance option, but for the reasons that Bioware apparently doesn't support homosexual relationships in Mass Effect, that option for Jack was cut. In Tali's case, not sure if it was ever planned, but it would just have made sense anyway.
I can see you made Tali's body a little slimmer. Yep, looks better now

they do have the voice recordings done for a Tali-femshep romance too, this again was cut, but the audio files are still intact.

I don't have a PC so unfortunately I can't get the files for myself. Eventually I'll look for them on my own, because I'd be curious to hear the dialogue for femshep.
Seriously, though, besides the fact that portraying homosexual/bisexual relationships along with heterosexual is just morally right, its also a waste of valuable voice-acting records if you're going to record content that won't be there. Not to mention that there was cut Ashley/femshep and Kaidan/maleshep in ME1, so they just set a precedent of wasting space. Honestly if Bioware wasn't going to include homosexual romance options in the Mass Effect series, why bother? Why even bother recording such dialogue in ME3 for potential new romances if they're just going to be cut anyway?
Hehe, sorry, I'll get off my soapbox now.
