VELVET



Thanks Soxikibem for your invitation to translate your tutorials into english



In this creation, we delve into an atmosphere where silence has texture and beauty holds secrets.
Inspired by autumnal tones and hidden mysteries, this art walks between light and shadow, enveloped in velvet, marked by a gaze that speaks beyond time.
Follow the steps and discover how to shape that elegant and somber omen, where every detail whispers an untold story.
Explore the mystery, touch the beauty, and let yourself be enveloped…
Sim PSP - where art meets the soul.

This tutorial was written with Psp2022 and translated with PspX2020, but it can also be made using other versions of PSP.
Since version PSP X4, Image>Mirror was replaced with Image>Flip Horizontal,
and Image>Flip with Image>Flip Vertical, there are some variables.
In versions X5 and X6, the functions have been improved by making available the Objects menu.
In the latest version X7 command Image>Mirror and Image>Flip returned, but with new differences.
