Painting model railroad backdrops: Sky and Clouds

Bernard Kempinski describes some tips and techniques on how to paint the sky and clouds on his O scale model railroad backdrop.
The video was getting a little long, so I edited out the discussion of why I did not cove the corner by the planned balloon camp. There is a window adjacent to that corner. This window is a possible fire escape for the room. So I did not want to block it with a section of masonite I would use for a cove. Solutions that involved a partial cove just didn't look right. So I plan to rely on the Lowe's observation balloon to help hide the uncoved corner.

Incredible. I'm not an artist by any stretch of the imagination, but I'm going to give this a try!

Great tutorial! I have been a fan of curved backdrop for the corners from there beginning of my model railroading days - it never fails. I really like your clouds, I am terrible at painting them...

I use stencils that I made myself by just ripping paper along one edge and then using a rattle can, spray white and gray on the wall, then maybe taking a paint brush and blending the two colors together in areas. I prepped the wall with the haze and 3 different shades of blue, blending them together. I wish I had pictures of it. Turned out really good, I thought! Old house layout.

Very nice demonstration and a fabulous result. I found the drum backing track a little distracting and unnecessary however. But that aside thanks for posting!

Love the technique and will try it. Wet on wet is way too variable. What is the kILZ for and how do I use it?

Kilz is a stain-blocking paint primer available at hardware stores. It comes in oil and water based formulas. I use the water based one.

Interesting point about using the Kilz as a glaze, I will have to try that. How much do you thin it? Thanks for sharing -- Ed

For balloon, put an LED behind it, to eliminate shadows?

How do you apply the 50/50 Kilz to create the haze?

Big Sky is Montana. Idaho is the Potato state with onions.
