Contest Directions:

Today (November 27) Jimi Hendrix would have been 70. Hendrix was influenced by U.S. Rock & Roll as well as electric blues, and is regarded as one of the greatest guitar players in history. Jimi wanted to be a guitarist since he was a kid. Jimi's father bought him a guitar for his 15th birthday, replacing the broomstick that Jimi pretended to be his guitar. Hendrix wrote right-handed, but he preferred to play guitar left-handed - much to anger of his dad, who thought that playing guitar with left hand would produce devil's music. Jimi lived, played, and performed not sparing himself, and never expected to live to a ripe old age. "When I die, just keep playin' the records." was one of his favorite lines.
To mark the 70th birthday of Jimi Hendrix, photoshop him any way you wish.

- Nice work on the smoke and the overall image has great appeal … I think it would be even better if the facial area better matched the clarity of the rest of the image … not sure if you kept enough of the likeness in the caricaturization, and he was next to never seen wearing sunglasses.
  
  Some good pointers QT, thanks.
  I fixed the nose to get more of a likeness. Also started with a low res image of Jimi due to time constraints...(not a lot of time to search for high res).
  but I think he looks good in sunglasses, he should've worn them more often, lol.
  
  Marvelous caricature with the Goggles in transparent give the feel of originality and Hair style with a cigar on his mouth gives him a freak look well done Like this....
  
  My favorite in the contest, silver congrats Funk
  
  Congrat's Funk, beautiful image!!
  cheers
  Mandrak
  
  By far my fav Funk!
  Not a very good contest choice due to the fact that all his photos are bad and hard to work with unless you want to colorize a black and white.
  
  Congratulations. You captured the 'cool' in Jimi.
  
  Thanks all! This one was executed in a relatively short period of time compared to other recent chops. (a few hours). Almost made the scrap bin a couple times, but managed to rescue it at the last minute....Still had a blast!
  
  You've captured Jimi's personality, funkster!
  Congrats on the silver!
  
  uhhh jimi played a right handed guitar flipped over and restrung lefty....other than that good job

- Nice work, hidden … is that Prince's purple guitar?
  
  Thank you Qtr, lol don't know but everything is possible in Heaven you can have anything
  
  Great color combination.. The purple color shades were looking great over his hair and the guitar and Belts of the pant were perfect match.
  
  Great job done to reach him above the clouds well executed
  
  Awesome work his head fits so prefect and the starry effect all over the picture is amazing and gives very lucrative touch with mix of background.. beautifully done
  
  Many thanks Rajeshstar, Ericnorthend very glad you like it
  
  Congrat's on the bronze
  Cheers
  Mandrak
  
  Congratulations. He looks real 'sweet' but, that's not a word I would use to describe 'Jimi'. Nonetheless-great pic Sunshin3.

- Beautiful work on this image … It's definitely a different take on Jimi Hendrix … I was wondering what the pinkish shape at the end of his right arm is?
  
  I also not confirm about that, maybe bag..I just take from this source
  
  Jimi in shorts... looks so peaceful and Good Boy!!! well done like this chop
  
  Full view is awesome, that pink thing is like his Air bag to sit LOL
  
  I like how you made the head, but it looks a bit weird because the hands can't be seen and if I see right you put some topaz at sky and not at the rest of the layers, is good to put the filter at the final image not for one layer. Hope it helps don't take my comment as critique
  
  Great work BX!....It's kinda reminiscent of Rainman's style a bit...if it was mine I would've eliminated the pink package & tucked his arm behind his back a bit more though...
  
  Many thanks lady Sunshin3 & Master Funk for your constructive comment. I'm really glad to get a guide from professional photoshoper like you two. I will do better next time.
  
  U don't need guidance.....u already got what it takes.
  
  just a slight nit pic tho....the left leg is just a bit too dark...not sure what the source pic looks like....

  Love this one, but I would remove the "red bag", just so it causes no confusion
