She looks exactly like Cortana. She modeled Cortana after herself.

I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum...and I'm all out of bubble gum.

Was Cortana modeled just after her brain or also her physical features?

Yeah and my pic is based on a pic of Cortana, but aged and with glasses.

They modeled Cortana after her brain, Cortana got to choose her own appearance. She did look at an old picture of Dr. Halsley and choose that. So yes, Cortana looks like a young version of the doctor. However, one thing you failed to consider when making that model is the fact that the doctor is in her 60s to 70s in age. That lady only looks 40. It was mentioned earlier, can't remember where, but by Halo 2's time...Master Chief is 41. Something to keep in mind.

Kind of looks like Finland's Prime Minister, but younger.

I think you mean Finland's President Tarja Halonen. The woman who Conan O'Brien is endorsing because she looks like him.

Whoops... I always thought he referred to her as the Prime Minister. My mistake. =)

So did I, but when I searched google to find her name...it said she was in fact the president. It's always possible that he was calling her Prime Minister, I doubt they care about hurting Finland's feelings.

No, Cortana is a younger version.
Anyways, look in the books, she didn't have a lazy eye, she had BLACK hair, icy blue eyes, and her skin was realy realy pale, and her hair looked like Cortanas.
Those are from Fall of Reach page fourteen to seventeen.
