I'm not sure if I asked previously, but I'm after a mountain backdrop... a picture to put behind my minatures. I've searched quite a lot of places but not found anything, and cant find anything online either.

I have found some pictures that they sell for hobby trains, but nothing that fit what I need.

All I need is distant stone mountains, i.e. no grass etc. Anyone seen anything that like this?

I would suggest finding a high rez panoramic mountain picture, editing it to size in photoshop, having it print out at a Kinkos, and then mount it on foamcore.

Pretty much anything your heart desires of various stock photos. Some of the older pictures are at relatively low resolution, but you'll find stuff there that is printable up to large poster sizes such as A1, which ought to cover most regular needs :)

I've done a search but never got anything that fits what I need.

I currently have this http://www.gaugemaster.com/item_details ... de=PESK-11

But i need something similar without the lake, and possibly more bare mountains. madd0ct0r has the right example, but I need multiple mountains. I have basically built something similar as the picture madd0ct0r posted, so all I need now is a pcture to go behind so it looks like a mountain range.
