Abstract: In this paper we prove the existence of a complete cap of $mPG(4n+1,q)$ of size $2(q^{2n+1}-1)/(q-1)$, for each prime power $q>2$. It is obtained by projecting two disjoint Veronese varieties of $mPG(2n^2+3n,q)$ from a suitable $(2n^2-n-2)$-dimensional projective space. This shows that the trivial lower bound for the size of the smallest complete cap of $mPG(4n+1,q)$ is essentially sharp.
