The Mad Hatter's hat

Oops, I've just realised I haven't updated my blog with the Mad Hatter for quite a while despite a lot of progress.

Meanwhile his skin is almost done ... White is tricky to paint. I used blue for the shadows.

Then I painted one of the most important parts, his hat ...

Regarding the flower pattern you can only see after enlarging the original picture (see below), I made use of my freedom of artistic expression and changed it a bit compared to the original.

How do you like him so far?
