Asherah from Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey.
Yeah yeah, OL's a pervert.
Even more than the female form, however, I just found it surprising how striking the design comes off, despite the general lack of popping color or fine detail. It's unique and it stands out, and it doesn't have to blind you to do it. Even if it were a male body, it would still be an excellent design.

But yeah, a next-gen SMT with Kaneko's style would be amazing. Atlus's games are rarely graphical powerhouses by any means, but the art design throws them over the top into "absolutely beautiful" territory.
Not sure if you're there yet, but I seem to remember a pyramid area in Nocturne really impressing me. And the Amala Network looked great, with all the movement in its floors and ceilings.
