I had a ton of fun with this as I love guitars. There was a lot of warp action along with other tranforming tools. Also, check the high resolution image.

amazing work!!! SBS is good. High marks from me. Please show the sketch or reference image of the guitar, if you used. very good entry

I agree with gopankarichal...showing the original source doesn't take away from the work and talent involved in this masterpiece.
(245 days ago)

This is absolute genius.

I know guitars and this is awesome (at first I thought the neck pick up was upside down - then I realized it was a "custom" job!!) Everything - from the pickguard, to the arrows on the volume/tone knobs, to the shadows off the pick up switch - are superbly done. Great detail. FAVORITE!
(245 days ago)

Awesome!!!! Winner for sure
(245 days ago)

CVRaveOn and gopinkarichal I changed my first and second step to show my original drawing. I thought it was a good drawing originally until I scanned it and used it for this, then it kind of looked blah but it worked well for my guitar.

Well done mate - You have my vote
(245 days ago)

Thanks for the additional original...I don't think you have to "fret" about this "solid body" of work...it is an awesome piece of eye music!
(244 days ago)

Exquisite work. WELL DONE! Good eye you have, great background manipulation.
(244 days ago)

This is really a great piece of work! Well done!

I have a feeling the first song you will play on this chrome axe will be "ArtStudioPro Classico"
(244 days ago)

Thanks for the additional comments, there are a lot of great entries in this contest.
(244 days ago)

for lack of a better word....holy sh*t. the perspective is flawless, the composition has great balance, and there's even a clear sense of light direction. Best BY FAR. I'd nitpick it, and find something mundane to point out, but I can't even do that. Massive kudos!
(244 days ago)
