Here’s an example of scenery using the techniques described.
It’s only a small scene and is actually a scenic break between two detailed sections of my layout. It’s important to give the eye somewhere to rest every now and then.
The foreground starts off with high detail including hand made wire trees with Noch leaves, laser cut plants including butterflies, a detailed (or soon will be) vehicle on a weathered mud road and static grass with dandelions and other weeds.
Only a few inches back and we are into the middle ground of the scene. The trees are generic plastic ones that I have added ground foam to and the bushes are polyfibre or rubberised horse hair with the same ground foam and only the odd leaf. In between the foreground and the middle ground is a dividing bog area.
The static grass has been painted a little but lacks the extra detailing of the foreground.
The background is just cheap wire trees with ground foam and a painted sky. The colours are limited and nothing stands out to draw your attention but you know that there is depth to the scene.
