I love some apps that recreate amplifiers with leather and those controllers. I have been thinking about doing a tutorial on that for quite long time, so today I decided to learn how to do that and then try to explain how I did it to you guys.
So in this tutorial I will show you how to create an awesome amp controls using only Photoshop.
Step 1
Open Photoshop and create a new document. I am using 2560x1440 pixels. After that fill the background layer with grey using the Paint Bucket Tool (G)
The wallpaper of this week is a photography from the Dieter Rams called Less and More. Dieter is one of the greatest industrial designers of our time and has influenced other designers such as Jonathan Ive, the man behind Apple designs

The book suggestion of the week is about Jeff Bezos and the history of Amazon.com. One Click: Jeff Bezos and the Rise of Amazon.com is a really good book, very inspiring and motivating especially about believing on what you are doing and focus on the long term when doing things.
