For those of you anime fans out there like me, we were overjoyed to see a model of Major Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. I know I was... but, I always thought that the model was a little bit off on coloration on the hair and some of the clothes. I also would have prefered to see a verison of her wearing her pants and her larger, short-sleeve jacket. Well, it looks like the author of this skin had those same feelings, and decided to reskin her.
I must say, it is a good effort, but it doesn't live up to what I would have hoped. The author did make the clothes and hair a little darker, but because of the restrictions of the model, the author could not do much else. To make the pants, all the author did was color the upper thighs and lower hips with a pure blackish-grey color. It... kinda looks like she is wearing pants now... but... I'm wondering why some detail could not have been made to make it look wrinkly and more like pants. The author claims in the readme that this skin was made almost entirely in MS Paint, but because of the small change in brightness on the rest of the skin, I'm thinking the author must have had Photoshop or Gimp in his use. With programs like that, detailing those bland grey "pants" would have been easy.
Bottom Line A good effort, but lacking from what I would expect. Perhaps a version with improvments will come, or the author of the original model will model her with pants? Bot Support: No NPC Support: No Team Colors: Yes New Sounds: No Playable in SP: Yes

Hey everyone! This is a reskin of Graves's "Major Kusanagi" skin, so the model and everything was made completely by him, I just made some slight modifications. The biggest one being adding PANTS!!! Then the skin was made much darker to give her less of a peppy feel, she doesn't look as friendly as before. Also I made the red and blue skins available in Single Player (if you still play it =-/) because I like them a lot as well. This is my first released skin, I have more planned on the way. This skin was made almost entirely in MSpaint, but look at it before you completely disregard it ^_^. To install (Made simple for the noobs! =-D) : Step 1 : Click on the zkusanagiwithpants!.pk3 and press control + c. Step 2 : Open up my computer, go to your hard drive(Default is usually C:/), then go to Program Files, Lucasarts, Jedi Academy and then proceed into the gamedata folder. Step 3 : Now double click on the base folder, and then press control + v. Now you're done!!! The skin should be near the top of your profile when you start the game.
