DREAM DAY
My translation of a tutorial Valérie Savary, better known as
I have her written permission to translate her tutorials in english and you can find the original here. Any resemblance with another one would be only pure coincidence. It is strictly forbidden to modify tubes, to change their names or take off
the watermarks, to present them on your sites or blog, to share them in
groups, to make a bank of images or to use them on lucrative purposes.
Thank you to respect Valérie’s work and other artwork creators'work mentioned in the original tutorial. Don’t hesitate to warn me if
you have any trouble with this translation and I’ll try to fix the
problem as quickly as I can. You can reach me here.
Valérie made this tutorial on April 16, 2015. I have used PSPX5 to make my translation; you can follow this tutorial
with any other versions of PSP, but the result might be slightly
different.
