The Major 2.0 - Motoko Kusanagi - revisiting a design I did back in 2013 (last image). If you scan the barcode it brings up her name. I might do a limited number of holographic foil cards of this design 💿 #ghostintheshell #motokokusanagi #artnouveau #fanart

Throwback to one of my first ever ink commissions of Death of the Endless. Drawn directly on to the last page collector's sketchbook. The book was filled with amazing art by incredible artists I remember I was so nervous adding my drawing to it! I'm still proud of it after all this time 😊🖤

Starting 2025 (and my 1st post here) by sharing the last commission I finished in 2024 - Jack O Lantern 🎃 I admit I had never heard of this character before receiving this commission but it was a fun one to design! Ink and a bit of black colored pencil on bristol board 🖌️
