New Canvas Kilt

[highlandcelt]

Good job on the ensamble! Very good pic! Did the skull on yer knee hurt at all?
I'm thinking about getting knotwork designs done on my knees and rear calves. I have this on the side of my right calf...

Whoops. Looks like I missed Kilted Taper's question. It is indeed a Buzz Kidder canvas kilt. I didn't even know who it was by until Riverkilt helped me out (he remembered the booth at the Flagstaff games.)

And Highlandcelt:
Yes, the skull on my kneee did hurt indeed. And, would you believe I tattooed it myself? It's true. I, in retrospect, really don't know how I managed to concentrate through the pain! It definately wasn't the most painful tattoo ever. But, it wasn't the easiest either. I need more stuff on my legs. I've pretty much decided that I'm going to get a bagpiper in black and grey on one of my shins. I've also been considering a rampant lion on the other knee cap.

Sweet looking kilt, my friend!! I am thinking about getting one in Khaki.

It is too bad that you are so far away from me and I from you. By the looks of the ink-work ya have, I'd like for you to do some on me! I have been Jonesing and fiending for some new ink. Call it an addiction! The ink itch! Gotta scratch it!
I am actually wanting to get a Rampant Lion flag on the back of my left calf, and a Saltire Flag on the back of my right calf.

I'd be happy to. But, as you've already pointed out... we're quite a distance from one another! I've been tattooing for about 6 years. I worked full time in a shop for a couple of years. But, due to the owner's bad business decisions, that came to an end. I do tattoo still. Just usually on friends and family kinda thing. Some day I hope to be a shop owner. Some day.

Do you have a pic of the bagpiper you're thinking about getting? One of my next ones will be a slightly personalized pinup piper. Stolen (with permission) from the Pub Crawlers:

Well, I can see the piper in my head. It will have to be a custom piece drawn up by the artist. It is pretty much a portrait style of an old male piper. Full gear... the works. I want the kilt to look like a cool breeze is moving it ever so slightly. Like the old chap's standing on a hill somewhere deep in Scotland.
