6. January 2020 HO Backdrop (Background Hills and Mountains)

I painted some background mountains behind the cutting and then painted some mid ground hills with "dabbed on" trees in front of them to give some impression of depth.  The mid ground hills were a continuation of the hills painted to blend in the Corner Mountain.

To reduce the visual impact of the steel support post I am considering building a mountain spur the will run towards the foreground which will necessitate either a tunnel or a deep cutting across the back and in front where the loop is planned to run. These sketches show an idea I am considering.
