After not learning Photoshop
Remember the times we tend to resist in learning something and try to master a completely different one? Through patience and determination, it might give us fortune.
Pat Hines, admitted that he sucked at photoshop. He always fails in learning, but look at what he did. He illustrated his ebook using the basic Microsoft Paint,
“I suck at Photoshop and other programs, and have worked exclusively in Microsoft Paint for over ten years… I honed my craft working long overnights at a hospital reception desk,” Hines shared.
This is the very reason why Hines decided to choose the program he is already good at when illustrating his book, Camp Redhood And The Essential Revenge.
Doubts?
If you have doubts about Hines’ creations, he encourages you to download his pictures, and zoom in for a finer glance. Also, you can visit his Deviantart page where he documents how he made the exact similar piece in a step-by-step process.
About the book
His self-published e-book is all about a summer camp in an 80’s setting. Adding to the twist, the camp is surrounded by ghosts and monsters, which according to Hines, ‘filled with goofy campers and counselors, where the teenagers are always trying to get drunk or laid.”
