Well, as we have now finished the sky blue color on the backdrop, we have to add those land forms that make up what we usually see. Here I have put the plaster on the start of the hill that blends the backdrop to the horizontal surface.
Looking back you can see the roll of plaster cloth to the left, the paper cutter I use to cut it and the utensils that are used to put it in place. They consist of a water sprayer, a small paint brush to wet it in place and a small bowl of water.
Now you can see that the plaster cloth is all up and our pro painter, Wendy, has come over to begin to paint and teach me. She is using ceiling white paint to make the clouds that form on the horizon and, thus, relieve the uniformity of the blue.
You can see where she has painted and even made some small clouds in the scene. There is only about 80 feet for her to go!
AS you can tell by the earlier shots of us guys up on the tracks, she ius far more supple than we are and is able to crouch as she paints her way along.
Here is the first step in the finished product. Makes things look a lot better already.
