Montezuma Monazym Report post Posted October 25, 2009 As I said earlier, you and this costume are just too cute! Awesome job on everything; you're sure to be a hit at the Halloween party. Though, in my humble opinion, you should just walk around like this every day. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTcustom Report post Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) Thanks MM, Storm, CG! Regimental is the only way to go Storm. For authenticity of course. I almost do want to walk around like this all the time. I need more hats and kilts! Backedit: Here is the detail of the leather shirt collar. Edited October 25, 2009 by TTcustom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CitizenKate Report post Posted October 25, 2009 Great costume, Tim, very imaginative and well-done. Maybe some theatrical troupes would be interested in your work. Kate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottishshoemaker Report post Posted October 25, 2009 Hats off to you TT. That is one way cool costume. Like the kilt very untraditional. But that's what I like about it. Puts us Scots to shame! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTcustom Report post Posted October 26, 2009 Thanks everyone. It was a lot of fun doing it. Thanks 'Roo Kate I was finishing the jacket hours before the party and just got the sleeves hemmed before I had to get ready. Tasha that vambrace looking nice is a big credit to your help. Mooshi no the boots are made by a shop up in Idaho that I think has since moved on. They wear well and the buffalo is really tough but comfortable. Thank you RS Sara that is why I like your mom. BAM! Thanks George! Maybe someday I will get a real kilt! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THE BIG RED VIKING Report post Posted October 26, 2009 That is possibly one of the coolest thing I have seen. I like the single action on the hip. Have you by chance read the book Boneshaker I think you would enjoy it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
