Lovely work on the Tartan Neil :smiling3:.
I remember doing an article on how to paint Tartan for Military Modelcraft International in the late 90's.

thanks so much ,guys!

Looks good. I always forget the diced bands on the hat and the stockings....Getting them right is as hard as the tartan....I’ve thought about doing highlanders several times in 28mmm and that’s where it stops LOL.....

Jock is nearly done now.
I thought I would show him before I do the weathering in case I c*ck it up.


It was a very complicated job fitting all the equipment after painting. I used mostly slow-drying PVA to avoid the risk of ruining it with CA in the wrong place, so I had to wait for each stage to dry before moving on to the next.The belts still need a bit of a touch up.
I tried to paint the regimental lettering on the canteen and pack, but I gave up after the third attempt :tired:
Thanks for looking
Neil
