It's taken me nearly three years since the actual creation of this picture to produce a solid scan of the drawing. Taking three days to actually draw (which were mainly spent in my home-town's library back in highschool), I consider this the best and favorite of all my work.

Please note that the lines aren't very clear and in some places look like they are almost about to disappear. This is due to the digitizing process I used (scanning straight from paper over into Photoshop 7 before adjusting brightness and contrast levels).

This work is a creation of and from my own mind, hence my signature on the artwork.
Several things had inspired me (and are quite obvious) such as Shirow Masamune's manga "Ghost in the Shell," the Mamoru Oshii directed movies of the same name, and several other science fiction mangas, movies, and cult classics.

Picture scanning, digital touching/editing was approximately one and a half hours.
Tools used were Photoshop 7 and an HP Scanjet 3400C scanner.
