Building the WFS Part 7

Basic Backdrop Painting and Static Grass

I painted the backdrop sections a basic sky color.  The plan was to add a photo backdrop to the scene as well as painting a few background trees and clouds...nothing fancy.  I ended up painting a few buildings and scenery elements instead of using a photo backdrop. The painted backdrop will eventually be replaced with a photo backdrop.

background details painted with acrylic paints

The next step was to begin adding another layer of texture to the scenery base.  I used a homemade static grass applicator and a static grass blend from Noch for this step of the scenery process.  More textures will be added before calling this scene complete.

That's all for now!!
