John,
I started to paint my walls / backdrop today. I liked your pictures in weekend photo fun 10/28/11 so much I went with the colors you suggested. I have the first coat complete and was wondering,
You told me the two colors you used were a blustery day and bibbity bobbity blue. I closely matched these two colors. With the first coat applied, the blustery day is significantly lighter than the bibbity bobbity blue. Are you sure the these are the two colors you used?
If they are, then please elaborate how you achieved your finished product. Currently I have half of the wall painted in one color, half in the other color. Did you just have the two colors meet or did you do some mixing? I was under the impression you had the two colors meet and then just added brush strokes to make a sky / haze / cloud look.
I will try to post a picture of what I have so far. Right now the colors on the wall are so different, I am thinking that possibly the bibbity bobbity blue is way too dark.
Thanks!
(So close to benchwork I can almost taste it)
