translator’s note

I use PSP2019 to create my tag and write my translation
but this tutorial can be realized with another version
according to the version of PSP you use, the results might be slightly different
don’t hesitate to change blend modes and opacities of the layers to match your tubes and colors

Use the pencil to mark your place along the way
