Oh! Thank you guys for the reply...perhaps that is where I am going wrong..I am trying to do this by hand with brushes, overlays, blurs..ect. It never occured to me to grab a cloudy sky image and play around with filters...thank you both very much. I apprecite it a bunch, I'll give that route a try and see if I can come up with less of a mess then my first attempts laugh. I do apprecite the heads up on this!
