Inspiration for a backscene
I am a huge admirer of Neil's Shell Island and greatly admire the simplicity of his 'less-is-more' backscene, but I'm a colour-blind dunce when it comes to art, so for my own backscene I'm going to need something solid and physical. Much of my inspiration for an urban setting has come from Hendre Lane, Anderstaff Yard, Mossley Terrace and Thorne Yard. I particularly like the blue brick retaining walls, but feel that for credibility they can't be very high and as I feel something like 15" height is needed I believe some sort of 19th Century industrial warehouse atop the wall is called-for. I spotted a likely candidate today and took a couple of shots with the phone for proportions, windows (nice basic steel frames) textures and details e.g. mossy drain pipes, leaky gutters, weathering streaks Etc. I'll load them here as a reference.
