My exposure to flats has been limited over the years. I've seen them at shows and have painted and sculpted a few. Nearly all, including the ones on these boards, have been displayed framed against a dark, usually black, backgrounds. So... if you have a dark figure, a Zulu warrior, Batman, or a dominatrix for example, what backgrounds do you use? The dark figures seem to get lost against the usual black background, but they don't seem - to my eye, at least - to pop against something else.
Just wondering.
