Salgueiro Maia #sixfanarts challenge

Sped up process of a watercolor I did for the #6fanarts #sixfanarts challenge. Salgueiro Maia, a key player and a Carnation Revolution hero for many, led a mechanized cavalry column into Lisboa, aimed at taking key targets and capturing the government members. His role in the negotiations was critical for the peaceful outcome of the Revolution. This #sixfanarts challenge was very timely suggested by @bernar_usk on Facebook.
