I had time for fan art! Well, sort of. I was originally creating this as part of an IFX tutorial, but realizing that fan art probably wasn't going to fly I made two versions, one that is GitS based and one that isn't.



It's funny, as I was deciding what her face should look like I thought a lot about prosthetic bodies. I mean, if Batou is basically Arnold Schwarzeneggar (look at him in issue 6 of the original manga) and Motoko has had her cyborg body since childhood, I imagine they're all pretty idealized. If that's the case, the Japanese tend to like more western looking faces. It's the curse of every culture ever. Everyone wants to look like whatever is considered rare in their society, so they tend not to be as into the standard. Ergo, I bet The Major's face is a bit racially ambiguous.



That being said, I did not intend for her to look as much like ScarJo as she does, that totally happened on it's own.
