hey guys, I was looking for a WW1 Ypres Backdrops for me diorama but could not find it.
so I picked up the paintbrush and am just begun.
it is not ready yet, but it goes well, I think !!
have also painted the inside of the house so you can see depth.
hope you like it?

Morning Harrie,

From the look of what I see you must have "picked up" a paint brush before .... a super nice job.
Are you a painter?

I really like the idea of the painting the interior (depth) of the diorama buildings. That adds a greater level of detail than just seeing what's on a shelf behind you or just white.

Great idea and results!

Of course you could not find it, because there was nothing left of the city.
Nice paint job Harrie

Thank Larry and Guy.
I paint all ready houses and figures but never paintings.
This is really the first time.
I have watched Bob Ross a lot!! Maybe I can make it my job sometime in the future

Harrie it would appear you have inherited some of your heritage of the Dutch Master painters. Maybe we should add your name alongside those of Rembrandt; Vermeer; Brughel and Van Gogh ^&grin

Seriously that's a fine looking back-drop you've painted. Its certainly not at all easy to get the effects you have managed. I know that by having a go myself and failing miserably.

Hope to see you at the London December show

Build A Rama has made a burning city backdrop that is quite nice.
