Leg Tattoos to go with a Kilt - Part Two

[Robin]

HA! If I got a tattoo my wife would cut it out with a dull knife!

Same here

I'm really interesting in the sgian dubh tattoo on the leg, has anybody seen more pics of this?

I don't have more pictures, but I have seen this one in person http://www.luckyfishart.com/sgiandubh.html It belongs to Vince Hemmingson, who started the kilts nights in Vancouver and used to be a regular attendee. He got it from Pat Fish in California. It is bigger than it looks in the photot, and it is great work.

Pat Fish has some great designs on her site. I just wish the pictures were a tad bit bigger to see some more of the detail.

I hear ya, but I guess she has had a real problem with people just stealing her designs. Although, some of the stuff I have seen there, I have seen elsewhere too.

Thanks Colin. I have seen that one, and I will take your word that it looks better in person than in the picture. I really like this idea but don't have alot of experience with tattoos.

Alot of tattoo sites seem to be like this. I didn't realize it was such a problem but I guess it is.

This is actually 2 tats combined. I got the knot-work done first. The fairy was added later. As you can tell, they screwed up her bum and didn't get her feet to touch the side of the knot-work. Ah. A free tat job is always welcome!
The fairy has a tartan fly draping her body in the Clan Baird tartan.
Had them done about 5 years ago.

Man, they have some great celtic tats!! I found the style of crest I want done!!! This Style only in the Murray Savage crest. I love the shading and how clear it is..

I forgot to mention. My son had to take this pic(as my regular digital camera has broken down) with my camera-phone to get a half way decent pic. Forgive the hand waving and shaking of an 11 year old! LOL

An eleven year old with a camera phone... I would say he did a fine job!!

Here's my ink. I'm a big fan of celtic knotwork designs, and wanted something unique. Working with Anne Williams and some helpful folks at my office, I ended up with this Lion Rampant design.
