  winter hour

the tube is one of mine
you can receive my tubes if you wish to have them by subscribing to my newsletter on simple request

OR on my tubes blog HERE 

 you wil find the original tutorial here

This tutorial is a personal creation.
Veroreves works with PSP20
I work with PSP20 Ultimate
but you can follow this tutorial with any other version of PSP

Any resemblance with another one would be pure coincidence.
It is stricly forbidden to modify images, to change their name or take off the matermarks,
To present them on your sites or blog,
to make a bank of images, or to use them on lucrative purposes.

Thank you to respect Veroreve’s work and the tubers work.
Don’t hesitate to warn me if you have any trouble with this translation
And I’ll fix the problem as soon as I can

Supplies
you can download the supplies on Veroreve's original tutorial
or HERE
place the texture provided into the dedicated folder of My Corel PSP
you will need an image with nice autumn colors (not too light
and a character tube

save your work often in case of problems with your psp
don’t hesitate to change blend modes and opacities of the layers to match your personal colors and tubes

HINTS and TIPS
TIP 1 -> if you don’t want to install a font -->
open it in a software as « Nexus Font » (or other font viewer software of you choice)
as long as both windows are opened (software and font), your font will be available in your PSP
TIP 2 -> from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by -->
« Mirror »has become  --> image => mirror => mirror horizontal
« Flip » has become  --> image => mirror => mirror vertical
