The real sky:
I very carefully and precisely slopped together some random blues, whites, and grays, and came up with a sky color that I believe "nailed it":

Touch Of Gray
An important part of the cold late fall/early winter look that I want is the sky. I really want to portray the steely gray color of a cold overcast fall day. I have to repaint parts of the backdrop anyway to clean up the brown paint that I slopped on it, so I decided to experiment with some different colors. The real sky outside today is exactly the color that I want, and since the trees are still bare, I was able to take a couple of photos capturing the entire look.
