Contest Directions: 
The Great Sphinx of Giza is one of the largest statues on Earth made completely from one stone. It was built over 3 thousand years ago, and historians still can not answer the "Riddle of the Sphinx" - who was the author of this statue, and who was the real-life model for its face. Another question debated among historians is - what exactly happened to the Sphinx nose. One of the popular theories suggests that the nose was broken off with a cannon ball fired by the soldiers of Napoleon Bonaparte. The Great Sphinx of Giza is considered a guardian of the Giza pyramids, and represents the might of the pharaohs who ruled the Egyptian land thousands of years ago.
Photoshop the Great Sphinx of Giza any way you wish. Examples may include restoring the statue, merging it with other statues, dressing it, giving it a paint job, or nose job. Perhaps you can even solve the Riddle of the Sphinx and show what celebrity or politician it could resemble if they lived over 3 thousand years ago.
