NOTE: you MAY link to this tut. you MAY print it out for later use offline. you MAY NOT claim it as yours or take anything else from it. this tutorial is ©Ruby/Stormlight, written July 17, 2022.

Supplies needed:
-- PSP
-- main tube of choice. I am using artwork by Sandra Charlet.
-- texture(s) of choice that matches colors in your tube. I am using a texture by devianttales. You can find many great free textures at Deviantart.
-- mask of choice. I am using a mask by Brutal Designs.
-- Jazzy's basic drop shadow setting of 2, 2, 50, 3 and color black.
-- the plugins Xero, Visman, and Eye Candy's Glass and Gradient Glow.
-- font of choice. I am using Beautiful Ruins.



1. Open your tube, duplicate and close the original. If needed, go to image > canvas size and make a larger canvas for your tube (I used 750x750 for the tube I chose). Delete any creator/copyright layer.

2. Duplicate your tube. Hide duplicate copy and choose original copy. On the original, go to effects > texture effects > glass mosaic and apply these settings:








3. Unhide the duplicate copy and duplicate it again, then mirror. Hide the newest copy and return to the previous one. in your plugins menu, go to Xero > Porcelain and apply these settings:





4. Use your move tool to move this copy up and to the left or right side of its original placement, your choice. I moved mine up and left. In the layers palette, change blend mode to luminance (legacy) and reduce the opacity just slightly.

5. Duplicate this layer. On the lower copy, go to VM Distortion > Tumbler and apply these settings:





6. Paste in your texture of choice and in the layer palette, arrange > send to bottom. Apply your mask and merge group.

7. Return to your original tube, unhide and arrange > bring to top. Apply Jazzy's basic drop shadow.

8. Create new raster layer for your name. Place it along the bottom. Go to Eye Candy > Glass and choose Glass Bubble from the preset menu (apply with default settings). Next go to Eye Candy > Gradient Glow and apply the following settings:





9. *optional* Create a new raster layer for your wording and apply the same settings as above.

10. Create new raster layer for your copyright/watermark. Use a small font, such as Arial Narrow or Arial Bold at 9 or 10 point to put your © on.
