Modelling the Environment

If i decide to do more illustration ill need to begin putting backgrounds into my work to make them look polished and bring them together as a final image. Until now my work has mostly just had a mist effect in the background, leaving the setting ambiguous but if i decide to change that ill need to know how to composite images and do so over a range of software.
