Description
I've tried to do a picture of Jimi Hendrix several times, but it just doesn't get there. This is as close as I've gotten and warped it into more of a caricature. In Poser, he looked like Shaquille O'Neal. In Bryce, he looked like a young "black" Michael Jackson. In Photoshop, he went from Burt Reynolds to Little Richard. A few years ago I did an image of Miles Davis and that came out fine, so it is possible.
