Colors
Virginia chose these colors
Don't hesitate to change the colors and the blend mode of the layers, and the shadows,
according to your tubes and images.
Important
Open all images in PSP, duplicate them and close the originals. (shift + key D)
always work with the copies to preserve original files
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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by --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
Virginia’s tip concerning this tutorial =>
If you want another harmony of colors than mine,
I advise you to start the tutorial by taking the same colors as me.
Then colorize the result obtained.
Otherwise, choose fairly clear colors at the start of the tutorial.

hold down left click to grab and move it
