Back to the Background


After several attempts at painting a simple horizon line; I give up. While I could be satisfied with a few layers of distant background trees, it's proving to be too much of a chore to paint after the scenery is in place....even though when I started this layout I swore up and down I'd do the background first, I didn't....anyhow I played around with some laser prints of photos I'd taken from a recent train trip. i'm happy with the results , and it's easy to blend the scenery with the bottom edge of the photo (applied with transfer tape). You can compare these photos with the June 2 blog entry:
