Hahaha I actually didn't give this an ultra lame title like "Sunset" or some crap like that, like I usually do. Woot. -_- And cookies to whoever knows where I got "Paper Cranes" from.
So I started on this like 940835739 years ago (May/June 2006 to be exact) and abandoned it for like years and then started working on it again intermittently over the past months. School is a b*tch and not letting me have time for drawing anything anymore... I think my "semi-realistic-wannabe" people look a lot better than before (see "Kami-sama" [link]), but since I started this so literally years ago, their faces are different from if I were to draw a new pic now, but I don't feel like starting over, so I just fixed as much as I could without starting over. I would start over had I not gotten terribly tired of this piece of lalala. Oh, and they also look much better close up, but that would make this too big to post so...yeah.
Well, when I first started drawing this I just finished watching Ghost in the Shell: SAC 2nd gig and it was AWESOME. KuzeKuzeKuzeKuze. So I had to do some kind of Motoko-Kuze fanart. :] Yeah I'll leave it at that and save ya'll from more of my incoherent babbling present in every single of my picture descriptions. And also my newfound intrigue at this "sub" thing. lawlzzzZZzzZZ. Wait wait, last thing: I made a new "signature" thingy, yay! It's not done yet, so don't fret! It's not supposed to be that fuzzy...
Motoko/Kuze is copyright some ppl...too lazy to look it up right now but if you know, please tell me so I can edit this. Thaaanks. <3
Edit: like 100 years later Ghost in the Shell peeps created by Shirow Masamune!
oo oo oo! I know where the Paper Cranes come from! This may be a bit of a spoiler, but Motoko and Kuze were in a plane crash together when they were young. I'll stop there, but I love the 2nd GIG and have been thinking about watching it over again so my son can see it Oh, and this is one of the best pieces of fan art I've ever seen - great work! I may get a print of this when I can afford it
wow!!!.... that's just wow. I love the expression on the characters faces, how their eyes glimmer and look alive. coloring is awesome and there are a lot of details! Love it!
YAY Motoko and Kuze!
Great job on the edit!

And this picture brings me such a warm-melancholic sense... How can I not remember that chapter! Can I have a cookie too?
