- What Song of the Cloud lacks in speech, it makes up for in beautiful scenery.
- In What's Shakin, many large panel scenes are drawn this way to emphasize something dramatic going on. Or transitional pages to help break the mood, like THIS one.
- Darths and Droids plays with this trope a couple times. Particularly here and here.
- Megatokyo, with intricate buildings and weapons. Probably due to the artist actually being an architect originally.
- The Phoenix Requiem
- Gunnerkrigg Court's urban landscapes are beautiful and foreboding. And the scenery has only improved over time.
- Say what you want about Drowtales, but the art, especially the art from the remakes, is fantastic.
- Family Man. Observe. Another example, complete with an accurate depiction of the sky during medieval times.
- Dresden Codak, one of the few webcomics you'd actually want to hang on a wall. Artist Aaron Diaz actually draws the comics on the computer. When sold as prints, they are between four and six feet tall, sometimes bigger. They look amazing hung on a wall.
- Rice Boy and Order of Tales actively revel in this, having entire pages that are beautiful sweeping landscape drawings or are lots of little no-dialogue panels just showing the characters moving through the environment. This is much less of a problem than you'd think, since the comic generally updates with multiple pages at a time.
- The Dreamland Chronicles does this from time to time, especially when establish new scenes, such as Astoria (continued on the next page) or Ashendel (also a double page).
- Nature of Natures Art occasionally indulges in this. It's even more impressive when you realise that the art's done entirely in oekaki.
- The Meek has some beautiful and distinct backgrounds in each of it's three Rotating Arcs, from a tropical jungle to a government building to an oasis. While those links are all safe, a fair bit of the rest of the site is NSFW. Just a heads up.
- Randall from Xkcd will occasionally play with this trope, most notably seen here.
- Homestuck may start with sparse black-and-white backgrounds, but as the story continues the art becomes more elaborate and colorful. Especially the players' various lands.
- The opening view of Sherbourg in Snow By Night does a good job of laying out the beautiful details of the colony.
- The Black Blood Alliance has some gorgeous backgrounds. Unfortunately, this is one of the few good things to say about it.
- Off White has some impressive backgrounds.
- Question Duck has many gorgeous backdrop. Which have, of course, nothing to do with the question the duck asks.
- Slightly Damned indulges in this when the characters arrive in the city of St. Curtis. Rhea is impressed too.
- Outside scenes in Cwynhilds Loom are usually very detailed. Interior scenes are often as well.
- The Property of Hate features many beautiful (and trippy) backgrounds, especially once the story reaches the fantasy world.
- Ed Kline and Kishma Danielle's NSFW Cyeatea comics - Dreamwalk Journal, The Widow and Nightshade the Merry Widow are to a large extent erotica featuring anthropomorphic insects and spiders. (Better Than It Sounds, honestly!) Besides lots of nudity, they also feature gorgeous CG renditions of Cyeatea's natural landscapes, as well as its inhabitants' architecture, which often has vast and ornate interiors. You don't suppose James Cameron was a fan, do you?
