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 for PSP 9, but should be compatible with any version of PSP.

I am using the artwork of Michael Landefeld. You need a license to use his tubes. I purchased this tube at CDO

I am using the FTU kit called Tiki Beach by Gimptastic Scraps
