A little progress with the Black Watch

Life crashed across my painting efforts – in a good way – these last weeks, so I have been struggling to get time for my Scots. Meanwhile my page views have passed 10,000, which is pretty amazing to me for something that began as a project notebook. So a hearty thank you to my followers and readers.

Returning to my Scottish miniatures, I have got the flesh on, and shaded it, and added the base coat for the kilts. I’m using a 50/50 mix of Prussian blue and black, which, at scale seems to give the right shade. It’s going to look very different when the pattern is added, of course.

Slow going with the Black Watch.
