Foothills Backdrop
Here are some photos of my latest backdrop painting along the far wall. My Alberta farming community will go in here with three grain elevators, station and flour mill. Same approach was taken. I started with blue wall, followed with scrubbed in clouds. A blue skyline and the yellow and black (green) for the hills. Distant mountains were done with ultramarine blue, white and a touch of crimson.

Chris,
excellent paiting job!
Nice work Chris! The colour choices always seem odd to read (ultramarine? crimson?) but you can't argue with the results!

Chris;
You are truly talented - your back drops are fantastic. I see some of the locals in the Ottawa area have asked (arm - twisting) your services when it comes to backdrops.Cheers.

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes Wayne I have finished a few in the last year and also have taught the techniques to others. I will be doing a clinic at the convention in Ottawa in Apr for the local chapter of the NMRA (Bytown Bobber). Maybe I could also do something in the future for the Maritime Federation of Model Railroaders as well.
