Veroreves-Mystery tutorial november 2025

 Mistery november 2025
you wil find the orignal 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 will need a nice colored image (not too light colors) and a character tube (not provided)
you can download the supplies on Veroreve's original tutorial
or HERE  
Place the supplies and selections into the dedicated folders of  « Corel PSP » general folder

you will need an autumn landscape, and a character tube (not provided)
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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by --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

Plugin needed
Bordure Mania
Simple
Toadies
VM Stylize

IMPORTANT
principle of the mystery tutorial :
make the tutorial without a template, just by following the steps
(this is the reason why my creation is placed at the end of the tutorial)
