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 Eugene Rzhevskii You need a license to use this tube. This tube was the gift of the month in April if you bought 3 or more tubes at PFD

I am using the PTU kit I Snow Day by Gimptastic Scraps . This kit is exclusive to The PSP Project
