Total Draw Time: 5.5 Hours
I was always more of an Adobe Photoshop guy. I find MS paint awkward at best. It’s obvious by the video that the interface and tools are not limiting to some people.
That guy should seriously get a 3D design program such as Dassault Solidworks or Autodesk Inventor and apply those skills to 3D modeling.

Lets not forget Google Sketchup.. its free, as opposed to the very high (and worth it) cost of Autodesk products.
I briefly tried sketchup when it came out. For a free tool it does work pretty well!
I’ve used the Pro (i.e. expensive) version of Sketchup and the only thing I really noticed (from my limited use of it) that was handy was the ability to import and export Autocad drawings (and others too I’m sure, I have Autocad also though, so I noticed that). Other than that, it’s really pretty neat what you get out of the free version. I’ve noticed it used a lot for architectural drawings. If you’re designing a cabin in the woods to retreat to when they come for your guns, Sketchup might be a handy tool to use to help design and visualize it!
I agree that Sketchup would have been cool. At least if he was going to do a line drawing as opposed to something 3D he it would have worked much better to use Adobe Illustrator or CorelDraw; at least the result would be a scalable vector file, not a bitmap. I have seen some other videos of people using Paint to actually “paint,” as opposed to draw, pictures. It really is amazing what some people can do with such a simple program. Kind of reminds me of those amazingly intricate drawings that people used to do with the Etch A Sketch.
Yea, Illustrator would have been a good choice.
What’s with the other blogs just copying your posts and not giving you credit? I saw this 2 other places today after yours posted last night. Coincidence?
I hardly think its a coincidence considering both of those guys follow my RSS feed. I think its more of a “I don’t want to give everyday, no days off credit for a post every day and drive away my own readers”.
I thought I was the only person that noticed :P
