kilt wearing

And with no further waiting, here is the next episode of The Kiltman comic.

So after a large survey and intense psychoanalysis of the comic strips name we decided to change it to just Kiltman, or Kiltman Comics. Since we aren't actually against Pantman or his friends, it seems more synergenical. (is that even a word?)

So with no further ado, i give you the first version of Kiltman

Today turned out to be a beautiful day in Boston, which meant a great kilt day.

The day started out well. Didn't even have my morning coffee yet, and i was already receiving compliments on the kilt.

"I'm loving the kilt" said a nice lady at Dunkin Dounts.
Thanks you nice lady for the compliment! you made my morning :)

At lunch i was thinking about getting the little guy a kilt, not only because its cool and really cute, but should aid in the potty training as well.
To me, a kilted toddler running around the house is a little easier to deal with than a naked one(at least that is the theory,we'll see how it is in practice).

I'm looking at picking up a toddler kilt from the guys over at SportKilt.com

Baby Kilts at Sportkilt.com

I got approval to order the Ramsey Tartan. So we'll definitely get pictures and a review online as soon as that comes in.

As for the next issue of Kiltman vs. Pantman, hang in there. Dan over at Circlecomics.com is cooking up a great redraw of the first episode as well as the new second episode.

If you haven't seen Dan's work you should check out his comics:
The Stickman Dailies and The Stickman Comic

Today is the third day wearing the kilt at work. By this time everyone at work is used to it. Still getting the random double take in the lobby and on the commute, but overall the reaction has been pretty positive.

Today's the first day Adam (Landrysplace.com) had a chance to wear his to work.

So far that is two techies that have jumped on the Kilt band wagon. We'll see if the rising summer heat converts anyone else.

On an un-related note, i have teamed up with Dan Larson from Circle Comics and will be redoing the first comic of KvP and using his Artistic abilities moving forward. We are probably looking at a bi monthly release of the comic, but the quality bar should be raised by well over 300%

Look forward to next weeks rerun of KvP.

Today is the first full work day in the kilt.
So far things are going well.

I haven't had any wardrobe malfunctions or kilt checks.

I did find out that turning fast in a kilt is a no no.
So don't do that in public unless you want to show off whatever you got under that kilt ;)

I feel bad about sitting on my nice ironed pleats all day, but it is very cool in the office for me today :)

We'll see how the trip home goes.

I finally got my first kilt today!

I have to say its incredibly comfortable.
The guys over at Utilikilts.com definitely know how to make a kilt.

I'll give you all a sneak peak of tomorrows outfit.

Happy Fathers day to everyone!

Yes i know i have been really slacking on the cartoons the last week and a half.

The good news is that i have been coming up with a lot of great ideas for different strips, so now i just need to sit down and draw them all out. Hopefully i'll get a couple of weeks ahead this week and it wont be a problem any more.

Just wait for the next post! you'll be glad you did.

There is only 6 days left till fathers day!!
Which means there is only 6 days left till its Kilt wearing time!

The plan so far is to wear the kilt to work on monday after father's day.

I'm excited the time is almost here.

I went to the Worcester Irish Music Festival this weekend. It was a blast. I even saw a guy there wearing a utilikilt and a punisher t-shirt. That guy was definitely rocking the kilt.

It was a really hot day on saturday and even the shorts weren't cutting it.

Ceylan almost let me wear my kilt out to the festival, except for two things.
It wasn't fathers day yet and it needed to be ironed.

So close, yet so far.

As for last weeks edition of Kiltman vs. Pantman, i have to appologize i got pretty sick on thursday then have company on friday. I'll make sure to draw a really good one this week to make up for it ;)

Till then. Stay cool and kilted!

I'll also be working on fixing some of the colors on the site that can be hard to read depending on monitor brightness. The theme looks great at midnight in a dark room in case you were wondering ;)

Two updates for this week already :)

The kilt was ordered today from Utilikilts : Original in Khaki. Should arrive this week, but i might have to wait for fathers day to wear it since it is a fathers day present. We'll see how i do on that front ;)

I have to find a nice 2inch belt to go with the kilt now. The $50 dollar utilikilts belt looks nice, but is a little steep ontop of the already pricey kilt. If they throw one in for me on my order i wouldn't mind, but otherwise i gotta do some shopping around for a belt.

On the Kiltman vs. Pantman front i hope everyone enjoyed the second episode. A little more story and a little more drawing involved. Some of the cells are better then others, i ran out of eraser half way through. I'm definitely at an erase a lot stage in the drawing process.

Though this weeks should be a little more crisp and i won't have any excuses. Dan over at "Circle Comics : Stick-Man" gave me a few tips on art supplies. I ended up with a pack of drawing pencils, a little pencil sharpener,stencil pad and three different erasers.

Going to start drawing a little sooner than 2hrs before the deadline this week as well so it wont be so rushed.
