Hajime Sorayama

is a Japanese illustrator known, along for his design work on the original Sony AIBO, for his precisely detailed, erotic portrayals of feminine robots. He describes his highly detailed style as "superrealism", which he says "deals with the technical issue of how close one can get to one's object."

Modern English-language editions of Sorayama's art books give his name as ''Hajime Sorayama'', using conventional Western order, with given name followed by surname. Some older publications give his name as ''Sorayama Hajime'', using native Japanese name order, which puts the family name first. Provided by Wikipedia
