Lesson 593

Bodi

 

This lesson was written on July 10, 2024 with psp12

 

If you are using a different version of PSP, the settings and filter effects may have a different effect. Play around with the settings until you get the result you want.

 

This lesson was conceived and written by me. Any similarity is purely coincidental.

I use a color scheme in my lessons.

I list the colors by noting the color number listed in the color box, in the color scheme.
