Afterwards I added some bits of grass on and made it so that the clouds are not all on the same level. It looked like a good enough background to me then so I kept it like that for the final one.
This background was the 3d background that I tried out. The trees looked better than they were at the very start. The sun didn't look too good in this background so I decided to change it.
This is the 2nd background that I did. Having seen other people's work with photo images combined with the cartoons, I decided to see how it would look. After looking at the result I thought that I was better off keeping it without any photo added in.
These are some pictures that I was looking at when doing research for how the palm tree would look. There were more ways that the trees could be done than I thought which was interesting to see.
This is the very first background that I did. I wanted to do a background with a hot weather look because with winter here, I was missing and still am missing the hot sun out. It was what was in my mind more. I chose to do palm trees the simplest and easiest way I could.
