Ive just started painting my first backscene having never painted anything before. Its a ceiling high scene and this is the first corner of the layout. Started off with sky  Then moved onto some hills and fields    Any tips would be much appreciated. |

I've little to add either, save 'planting' some green stuff at the edge of the board where it joins the back scene to disguise the right-angled join.

That looks very impressive for a first go and the colours look right. I am sure there is a tutorial on backscenes somewhere here on the forum. Bob |

While the sky was still wet I did the clouds, lightly spread some white paint on with a brush and then used my finger to blend in the clouds. For the landscape I started with a light green base, then added the fields and trees/hedges between them. I used my finger dipped in water to blend the top of the hills into the sky. I will probably touch it up more again though. |

Not planning a trip down under In the near future ? , only I have a nice long blank canvas in need of your services  Nice big back scene makes a big difference to a layout. Kim |
