For this tutorial you will need Paint Shop Pro 7,  and this zip file Unzip the selection to your selection folder and open the other images in your PSP window.

1. Open a new image 270x570, go to Selections>Load from disk>APcirc1.sel flood fill with color #E8BCAA.  

2. Add a new layer and load Selection APcirc2.sel, flood fill with the color of your choice for the pants, I am using #9D344F do not deselect, add a new layer and go to Effects>3D Effects>Cutout: Color #671F33, Horizontal and Vertical "6", Opacity "80" Blur "34.5", add a new layer and repeat the Cutout but change the Offsets to -6.   (NOTE: The color of the cutout depends on the color of the pants, if you are using a different one you need to choose a darker tone from that color)   Turn off visibility of Layer 1 and merge visible, load the same selection again and go to Effects>Noise "4".  Add a new layer, change your foreground color to the same of your Cutout and Null for your background and with your Draw Tool Freehand Line, Width 1, Antialias Checked and Create as Vector UNchecked draw some vertical lines (see screenshot) go to Effects>Blur>Gaussian Blur: "2".  Make sure visibility of Layer 1 is off and merge visible again, you can name this layer Pants.  Save.

3. Add a new layer and load APcirc3.sel, flood fill with color #B8A65A, add a new layer, change your foreground color to #FDFCBC and background to Null, and with your Draw Tool same settings as before just change the Width to "3" draw some lines (see screenshot) then go to Blur>Gaussian Blur "2" and lower the opacity on this layer to 60.

4. Add a new layer and load APcirc4.sel, repeat step 3.  Turn off visibility of all layers except the last 2 and merge visible, add a drop shadow: Color: Black, Vertical "1", Horizontal "0", Opacity "50" and Blur "4.7".  Turn off visibility of Layer 1 and the Pants Layer and merge visible, add a drop shadow with the same settings, you can name this layer Belt.  Save.

5. Go to Layer 1 and add a new layer, change the color of your Foreground to #DCA592 (Background Null) and with your Draw Tool same settings as before just change the Width to "2" draw some lines on the body and arms and go to Blur>Gaussian Blur "1", and lower the opacity to 80.  Turn off visibility of Pants and Belt layers and merge visible, you can name this layer Body.  If your lines went out of the body, load APcirc1.sel again, invert selections and hit the Delete key.  Save.
