I think this does indeed look a bit more traditional than some of the other photos you've posted. That's a nice jacket, although I wonder if perhaps it might be cropped a bit short? There is room for personal preference there, but the bottom edge really only needs to be clear of your pleats in the back.
The perceived shortness might just be the old illusion of the pockets being too low after conversion, which some folks have mitigated by moving the flaps up so that their bottom edge just barely covers the pocket opening.
In typically traditional attire, tweed kilt jackets are usually left un-buttoned and the cap badge goes over the left eye, so you might give that a try.
