Scotland, 1960s

My regular Celtic fan has recently developed a taste for getting Scotland international kits repainted onto former Celtic Greats.

Here are a couple of them!



I give you Billy McNeill, and Bertie Auld, both of Lisbon Lions fame, sporting a mid 1960s Scotland kit.

If you follow this blog, I'm sure you'll have read before that I love the simplicity of 1960s kits- not just because it makes them easier to paint(!) but I think there is something really effective about the end result.

Something a bit different about these two is that I also hand painted the shirt number, rather than using a decal. I felt the big, curved 1960s number font would be fine to paint, and it turned out that way too.
