A Vermillion Army

"As for young Nobunaga's manner: He had on a bathrobe with its sleeves removed, wore half-trousers over it, and carried any number of pouches for flints and that sort of thing around his waist. He kept his hair straight up like a tea whisk, tied with crimson and fresh-green cords. He bore a great sword with a vermillion sheath and ordered all the samurai of his retinue to outfit themselves in vermillion."
The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga, Ota Gyuichi (translated and edited by JSA Elisonas and JP Lamers)

I'm in a rabid Nobunaga fangirl mood thanks to *momographica so have some Owari no Ootsuke concept I played around with some traditional medias-- I used watercolour, coloured pencils and a black liner.
