Don't know if it's the flash, but your beret colour appears too pink, should be more maroon. , otherwise an excellent job

Don't know if it's the flash, but your beret colour appears too pink,
could be flash but a lot of 6mm painters do things a shade or two light, so it's noticable on the board at normal viewing distance.

These look awesome man, excellent especially for 6mm.

Thanks guys! Agree the beret is too "red," but you are correct Ethanjt21 that it is intentional. I've found that with 6mm scale it is better to go with lighter shades so it stands out better on the board when you are standing over it, especially after a black wash. In close-up shots the color exaggeration is much more apparent. I hope to have photos of the game on Saturday to post.
