This tutorial was written by me. Any resemblance to any other tutorial is pure coincidence. Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own. It was written in PSP 9 but should be compatible with any version of PSP.



I am using the artwork of Ellie_Milk. You must have a license to use this tube. You can buy the tube at PFD

I am using the kit Almost Paradise by Manipulated by Magik. You can find this kit at her HIM Addicts Store HERE
