Couldnt you have just taped the cardstock to the wall instead of the paper and drawn the mountains right on the cardstock? Then you could skip the step of transforming the lines from the paper to the cardstock.

Lol
I jsut hope you havnt actually started painting yet.
That would actually suck :P
Also instead of going straight to the mountains,
why dont you have feilds running up to the mountains, it will make a much better perspective if you get what i mean.

It also would be relative to the kind of weather you were trying to paint. If you were painting a scene with a front moving in then the more distant mountains would appear darker because the clouds will cast a shadow on them while the mountains/hills up close would appear "lighter" because they're still in full sunlight. But you are correct, for a scene in full sunlight mountains in the distance will appear lighter. I got myself mixed up. I need to fire my script writer...

Good catch. Yes you are correct. I'll add an annotation.

I think it is too. Their colours won't be so strong in the distance.
-
I thought it was normally darker mountains nearer, and lighter in the background - but I might be wrong?



Yes the cloers they are the darker they should be!

Crap! Yeah you're right. I got myself mixed up. One of these days I'll finally adopt English as my first language...8-).
