    Talking Help Finding Kilt Drawing

    Hi All.

    I've mislaid my collection of kilt comic strips and postcards. I must have deleted the directory. There is one in particular that I am looking for. I believe I originally came across it on XMarks, but now I cannot find it. I'm hoping someone will know where it is.

    It's a drawing, probably a postcard, of two army officers looking with disdain at a third officer who is wearing a overly short kilt. They are making some sort of sardonic comment. Does that ring any bells?

    Thanks in advance!

    KP

    Were they 18th century soldiers? If so, I remember the work, though not the site at the moment.

    I believe you are probably correct. It certainly was not modern, and the scene was probably over 100+ years old. I recall they had red tunics.

    Thanks for your contribution.

    NP. I'll try to see if I can remember the thread in which I had seen it originally. I remember it was posted shortly after I joined the forum, so maybe easier to find.

    I don't know if this is what you're looking for, KP, but this is a set of kilt comics that I enjoy...

    The comic is named, Pickles

    The first 5 were a 5-day series from 4 yrs ago in Oct 2003 & the last one was a sequel in Apr 2005

    There's such insight in those panels that I'm thinking the strips creator, Brian Crane, must be a kilt wearer himself. Anyone know if that's true?

    Here is the main comics thread I remember:

    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/k...ghlight=comics

    There are other references to "comics" in the Search feature.
