@Macruran: My Highlanders wear kilts or striped trousers or trousers in green combined with checkered shirts. My Lowlanders wear brown and grey jackets/shirts, some of them have tricorn hats. Their dress is more "universal". Originally most of them wore the blue bonnets only to show that they supported the Jacobite cause.

This is some great stuff. You went all out on this one, a lot of effort put in there. Thank you for sharing.

Quite an impressive collection of Klickies. I assume non of the Scottish guys look alike. Is there also a Charles Stuart? I will be going back looking for Murtagh.
Cheers

So, I suppose military berets are approppriate hats for the highlander (from the figures) and his pals?

The original bonnets were very similar to Basque berets and the ones worn at Culloden were close in size to modern military berets. For whatever reasons the Scots preferred blue bonnets and both lowland and highland Scots wore them.

The main difference for the Jacobite supporters is that they wore a white cockade on their bonnets. Most cockades were tied in such a way they looked like crosses though were supposedly meant to represent a white rose.

Thanks :)  I struggled making a friend for the highlander, also regarding headwear!
