[Guitarist Series 01]

It's a rebirth. :pray:

"Music is my mistress, and she plays second fiddle to none."
Duke Ellington

Slash was born in Hampstead, England on July 23, 1965, and he was raised in Stoke-On-Trent, Staffordshire, England. His given name is Saul Hudson. While in junior high school (age 15), Slash's grandmother gave him his first guitar. Although it had just one string, Slash was able to learn to play. Slash's early musical influences were Led Zep, Eric Clapton, the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith,Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Neil Young. He credits the Aerosmith album "Rocks" with changing his life. Getting to play with the musical idols of his life means a lot to him. Standing on a stage in Paris with Jeff Beck and Joe Perry was overwhelming. Slash also has gotten to play with guitarist "god" Eric Clapton. He has played with many other artists including Lenny Kravitz, Paul Rogers, Iggy Pop, Michael Jackson, Brian May to name just a few.

Rockstar Games's artwork for their GTA games have always been absolutely gorgeous, and feeling inspired by that... I tried my hand at it. (Psst, I think there are some issues with the hair, will be fixed if needed.)

I'd like to say thanks to everyone who chipped in when I had a hard time with the lost of this file, and you guys who kept me going, this is one for you. :peace::|

Comments, critiques, favourites, electric guitars and PS2s always welcome.

VIVA ROCK N' ROLL!!!11!!!!!1

looks great, i love it. but his shirt still has a tad too much detail (the folds) for a GTA3 look

nice work, esp on the guitar. looks cool. i never knew slash was british... i figured he was from california. i think the face could use a little shading though. it seems kind of weird against the shirt and the guitar.
