100% PDN nothing is borrowed or stolen.
I traced the halo bacground on a transparent layer, made 2 copies edited first added some lines , left out others. If I change the hue it will be red. I did use curves luminosity after I shaded the metal.
And to the question about how long I have been using pdn,,,, about 3 months, Ill have to check since I joined this forum the same week.
