Hello friends!
I present my creation once I finished a few days ago at the 75mm Pegaso!
A few words for this miniature that the inspiration and the whole setup was from watercolors by MacLeay painted for Queen Victoria with the Scottish theme. To chose the tartan colors of MacLeod.
Waiting for your comments and your comments about this creation.

Thanks

Alexandros

This looks really nicely painted, good job.

On the painting of the plaid, where the red lines cross over different colours the colour of the line should change (because the red threads are mixed with yellow or blue threads respectively). Only where the red lines cross over each other should the colour be fully red.

For the same reason, the lighter grey bands should probably not be blueish. If the base is very dark blue or even black the lighter version should be greenish, because of the admixture of the yellow.
