Materials

 

The original tutorial is written on PSP 2022.
This translation is written with PSP 2020 Ultimate.
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

and I work with the old Material Properties - in PSP 2018, 2019, 2020

under File - Preferences - General Program Preferences - check Use classic Material Properties

 

 

Preparations

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

When you open the Selections From Alpha Channel.pspimage file you will see a blank canvas.
It is not empty. It contains all the selections needed, saved to Alpha Channels.

 

Colors used:

 

Material Properties - Foreground: Set your Foreground color to color 1 #7d6d1d
Material Properties - Background: Set your Background color to color 2 #e6d694

 

If you use other colors, you may need to colorize some of the elements.

When working with your own colors, adjust the Blend Mode/Opacity at your own discretion.
