This is my absolute favorite page! I loved REASON, the really big gun in Snow Crash. So, I decided to create a picture that was a combination of Truckin' Magazine and something out of Sharper Image. The result: a swimsuit "chick" with a really big gun! There is intentional silliness here.

I created the gun with Imagine 4.0 and then composited it on top of the woman picture. I had to completely rotate and size her arms to get her to look like she is really holding the gun. Take a close look at her left arm, it was almost totally reconstructed by hand.

My favorite aspect of this picture is the sly look she is giving out of the corner of her eyes. I think this image is a combination of skill, luck, and a really twisted imagination!
