    Good luck.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Well, I can't say I've seen a deep orange (fire orange) like the Bengals in a tartan yet.
    However, Oregon State University football colors are similar to the Bengals and the school has a tartan.
    OSU Tartan Textile Design Competition
    To me the colors on the University site are deeper than the sample view on Scottish Tartans Authority so I don't know which one the tartan looks more like.

    Dutch tartan

    Take a look at the dutch tartan, I found it at Kilt store a while ago (I was shooting for a Buffalo Bandits tartan) They are pretty close perhaps not perfect but have a look at them.

    Remember that any red-based tartan presented in the ancient color scheme will look orange. House of Edgar ancient red looks more orange to me than the Lochcarron ancient red. So, I'd be on the lookout for a red, black, and white tartan in Ancient colors.

    Cordially,
    David

    What about this one, "Fountain of the Strong"?
