Materials

 

The original tutorial is written with PSP 2020.
The present translation is written with PSP 2020.
If you work with other versions some things might be different but the result will be the same.

 

Note: In the latest versions of PSP the command Image-Mirror has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Horizontal
and Image-Flip has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Vertical

Note: I use a script for the old commands of Image-Mirror and Image-Flip

Note: I work with the old Material Properties - in PSP 2018, 2019, 2020
under File - Preferences - General Program Preferences - check Use classic Material Properties

Duplicate all the tubes and work with the copies to preserve the originals.
