    My New Welsh Tartan Pics

    My new St David's National (Dewi Sant Cenedlaethol) cilt arrived last week and I managed to persuade a friend to take some pics.

    I think he should have crouched down a bit but here they are anyway:







    And my first two attempts at a Hamish - I am sure I need more practice!

    Your Hamish needs work... Well it's the only critisism I could find! The cilt looks mighty fine! I like your colour choices.

    I really like the colors of that tartan in the natural light. I think the outfit works well except for the shirt. I'd probably opt for a green shirt similar to the sock color. Other than that, the brass fittings on your leather work well. I wonder what brown leathers would look like?

    All that being said, looks like a sunny day in a kilt. Sounds perfect!

    I agree with cavscout. Everything is in perfect order (the belt and sporran match especially well!) but the shirt needs to change. Try to avoid wearing a blue shirt with a green jacket or kilt.

    Other than that, I love it! I've always loved Welsh cilts....

    Nice!

    Yes, the cilt shows up beautifully in the sunlight, and the jacket as well. Good show!
