FTU Santastic

 This tut was written November 14th, 2020 for those with a basic knowledge of psp.

I am using the awesome artwork of Jennifer Janesko

The tube is called "53-1"

I bought this one when CILM was still open.

You need a license to use this tube, do not use without a license.

You can find this tube at CDO store now  HERE

I used PSPX...but any of them should work.
