On the Elmwood side, I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. Either a printed backdrop of hills or a city skyline.

I didn't want to over-purchase paint. The color you chose looks great--not too light, not too dark, and very brilliant overall. It's a believable sky. Are you going to paint clouds, hills, etc, or leave it as it is? I'm going to paint it blue, then cut out pictures of hills to glue to the backdrop (that's what it looks like Dick Christianson did on the "town side"). Thanks! I didn’t want to over-purchase paint.
