Was listening to some Celtic music today (Riverdance vibes) while also thinking about Star Wars, and this conversation happened inside my brain:
The Art Muse: Rex in a kilt.
Me: Okay. Keep talking...
Art Muse: The tartan has to be 501st blue with white and black.
Me: Is there already a tartan like that? *Checks Google* Well, there are a few with those colors, but I'm not really vibing with them.
Art Muse: So why not design your own?
Me: Yeah, okay.
So I did. And here are the results. I designed a main tartan for the 501st in general, and some variants for Rex, Anakin, and Ahsoka specifically. I even Google Translated some Scots Gaelic names for them because.... reasons.
Basic Abhainn A' Ruith tartan. (Torrent. But literally translates to "rushing river", because Google Translate did not have a direct translation into Scots Gaelic for the word "torrent".)
Abhainn A' Ruith tartan, Speuradair variant. (Skywalker. Should be self explanatory.)
Abhainn A' Ruith tartan, Righ variant. (King. Because "Rex" is Latin for "King". Yes, I know it's the blatantly obvious choice to name this one. Sorry, not sorry.)
And finally....
Abhainn A' Ruith tartan, Gun Bhròn variant. (Without Sorrow. Because according to what I found in my quick Google search, the name "Ahsoka" comes from the Sanskrit for "without sorrow". Bonus fun fact - "Ahsoka" is, according to Google Translate, also Arabic for "I feel you".)
If anyone wants to use these, they're welcome to do so.
