This tutorial is made with PSP 2018
But you can make it with other versions

The © of this tutorial is my own.

Any resemblance to other tutorials on the wide web is based on mere coincidence.

Leave the names and watermarks of tubes and other material intact.
It takes a lot of work to make this.
Please respect this.

I also thank everyone for their tubes and materials that I can use in my tutorials.

If you place your creation in a blog, on Facebook or on a website,
please mention a link to the tutorial.

General preparations :
First install the filters that you did not have, before you open PSP !!

Color palette :
If you work with your own colors, make your own color palette with the alpha channel,
so you can easily switch between your colors.

There are color differences in the different versions of Psp.
Therefore, use the html codes of the color palette to be sure,
that you have the same colors. Also when merging layers, there may be color differences.
