Think MS Paint is a useless app?

No fucking way! Is there a video of the creation of that picture somewhere?

Probably the most famous ms paint picture:

That's easy. That guy sucks at MS Paint. I'll own him in paint, then in a warbird. GG to 'PixelGod'...shoulda been PixelNewb

Nice. Pretty skilled for...MS Paint.

I prefer GIMP, but that's me. :P

It would look slightly better in photoshop or illustrator, well at least, it would look a little bit less pixelated. I think he mainly used his graphic tablet to draw the base pattern of the car and some small details, but for the most part, he used the curve tool.

Most people dont have the patience for paint.

it doesn't matter which program you use, would look the same in photoshop if u didn't add any effects. All you need is a touchpad. I'm buying one this christmas to improve my portfolio to start college.

Uh I found it impressive precisely because he had the guts and the patience to do it in ms paint. Sure, the car itself isn't THAT nice, but the point of this wasn't to draw the greatest car of all time or whatsoever. The drawing is, relatively, really decent, and I think that's what he wanted to do : make a decent drawing in ms paint, bypassing the shitty program's very limited tools. Call me a fool if you want, but I thought it was awesome. Also, it takes much more talent and patience to do it in ms paint than drawing it in illustrator, where almost everything is nearly completely automated.

...And you can only do ctrl+z thrice in a row in ms paint.

EDIT
Saying something like "pfft, this drawing isn't that great, complete waste of time" is like saying "wtf, why didn't he just film it instead?" about a stop-motion video

its not the same cuase i like stop motion and i don't like ms paint

and yes i will call you a fool cause i want too

but don't take it personally as i think everyone is a fool myself included


though i am a pretty great fool

^i think with paint that would be even more difficult to do

[Ephemeral]

The video certainly was not done contiguously, more likely he did multiple 'Save As' and then put them together to form animation. It is likely that he took many days to actually do this. I also wondered if the video was actually done in reverse. Possibly import original graphic and then 'deconstruct' the car graphically?

[Cops]

it's pretty good :] I agree the guy gets props for taking the time in a shitty program.

i love paint, that was nice
