Motoko Kusanagi

Another model of Masamune Shirow's Major Motoko Kusanagi, but this version of her is from the "Ghost In The Shell" video game. This model was kind of a paradigm shift for me since it's so provocatively sexy and there are no guns involved! This was by far the most difficult and frustrating model I've put together to date, and the metallic trim that covers the entire body was extremely maddening (not to mention rigging all of the wires...). Overall, I'm very pleased with how it came out - particularly in the face and the body suit.
(1999, 1/6 scale, resin construction, acrylic dry brush)
