| Major Motoko Kusanagi of Ghost in the Shell If you haven't heard of Ghost in the Shell, you've been hiding under a rock. This is a fantastic series, that you don't have to be a fan of anime to enjoy. Aimed toward adults and as smart as it is nice to look at, this is a must see. Start with the series, not the movies, in my opinion. Motoko is the squad leader of Section 9, a fictional division of the real Japanese Public Safety Commision. Having a cybernetic body due to childhood trauma, the series explores the possiblities of artificial intelligence and self realization as the lines between humans and cyborgs are becoming more and more blurred in society. She is a serious woman, her inner strength is echoed by her incredible physical strength and abilities. She keeps her emotions to herself, and her life is her work. And she likes big guns. :3 |
| I get frustrated at how my wig changes colors in different lights in photos. It looks too blue below >.< Thats not the true color! |
| Sometimes i like the simpler photos the best. |
| There are not words for how much i love those glasses. No idea why. But i do. |
| This pic is big, and i'm teeny...but i love that federal buiding, it worked perfectly! |
| I went back and forth on making this one for a while, before i even started. It looks incredibly complicated, and some of the details change from reference image to reference image of her, so i took liberties where i wasn't sure. I think sewing spandex to pleather and pvc is one of the hardest things to sew together i have found, yet. |

| This was just a fun idea, too: photoshop a picture so i was in the Major's invisible-camo. I love this, i wish it really did that XD |
| For the record, i also did her uniform. I wore it to a convention, so i have very few decent pics...also, this was before i redyed the wig, notice how BLUE it is there? Blarg, i like it much better now. I'll wear it again and get better pics next time... |
