Like he would ever tell us anything. =/
You just have to go about it the right way, and be appreciative of his help, at least from what I've seen. A lot of people he's helped in the RC don't give a simple "thank you" after he tries his best to guide them.
Anyway, Googling "how to make ink/something look 3D" might be better? Just change the search phrase around until you get what you want. YouTube might be even better for finding nice video tutorials.
