Appears to be airbrushed. Yes you can airbrush buttercream....but it does better on a crusting buttercream than it does on a meringue/non-crusting type.

Any suggestions of another way I could achieve this? I don't have the equipment for air brushing

Could I use paste food colour thinned with liquid flavouring? I love this site it is so helpful

I used Wilton gel food colouring diluted with white vanilla flavouring and painted the black plaid onto red fondant. I was quite happy with the outcome.
