    Using airbrushed acrylic and an overlapped blue T5 bulb, he creates the illusion of a never ending reef. This is the most natural background I’ve seen. Goodbye Foam/Rock walls. Hello Uwe Backgrounds.

      are they selling these or is it a DIY?

      Hi Richard,

      These are a DIY project, Uwe is an artist by trade.

      Very cool concept, wonder if he would sell the paintings, he is overseas correct?

      Yes, Uwe’s on the otherside of the pond. To be honest the cost to import them would likely not make it worth the effort. It would be a relatively easy project just a bit of creativity with an air brush or some skinny caps and a can of Krylon.

      I love it. Could some translate the diagram from German to English? I want to give it a try.
