The Rat Fink design thereafter sold by Roth Studios as decals and on T-shirts was Leynnwood's reworked version with slightly simplified R.F. Jack Leynnwood's very slightly reworked Rat Fink subsequently became 'Big Daddy' Roth's signature piece.

Jack Leynnwood who did much of the box art for Revell then cleaned up the art just a bit by trimming the hair in and around Rat Fink's ears and rounding the 'R' for the Revell model kit which was issued just a few months later in 1963: Here it is with coloured pencils applied by our own Weldonmc: The original Rat Fink image may well have been drawn by Carl Kohler before he was supplanted by Wes Bennett as Roth's go-to artist some time in 1963. The iconic Rat Fink image made its first appearance in the July 1963 issue of Car Craft magazine in an ad entitled 'The rage in California'. A mint never worn/washed one of a popular design from the early 1960's would fetch well over a $1000. What's ironic though is an original 'Big Daddy' Roth air brushed T-shirt could now fetch $hundreds depending upon condition. Meanwhile silk-screening was also popular with customers because the wild cool image you saw in the ad was the exact one you got. Producers liked it because any design could be silk-screened onto a T-shirt in less than a minute by any employee while it would have taken 'Big Daddy' Roth himself several minutes to air brush a design on a T-shirt.

The silk-screening technology was quickly embraced by both customers and T-shirt producers at the time. Almost all of the designs featured in the ad though had been drawn previously by Wes Bennett: The same ad was featured again in the next two issues. The first ad designed by Newt was for the August 1964 issue #6 of Drag Cartoons. Gasser', 'Mother's Worry' and 'Genuine Junk Parts' were rendered by Wes Bennett:Įd Newton was then hired by Roth in 1964 both to design show cars and to create magazine ads for Roth's T-shirt line. All the T-shirt designs in the following two ads with the exception of 'Rat Fink', 'Mr. CARtoons, Hot Rod, Car Craft) was turning 'Big Daddy' Roth's designs into far more sophisticated line art renderings. These early finished renderings for silk-screening purposes seem quite crude by later standards:īy late 1963 artist Wes Bennett who did work for Petersen Publications (e.g. Many/most of the designs pictured in the ad below were line art renderings by Carl Kohler who together with Pete Millar had founded CARtoons magazine in 1959. I chose the Hemera logo and the OSHW logo as examples.įind attached some pictures of the results, of how I printed them and the designs with Fusion 360.Quote from: Hepcat on July 30, 2020, 04:04:32 PM By early 1963 the T-shirts 'Big Daddy' Roth was offering through magazine ads featured standardized images applied to the T-shirts by a silk-screening process. I didn’t want to deal with bridges in the stamp part so the handle has a flat part that works as base for the printing process.

I learned myself this software two months ago, so maybe it is not the best way to do it, but it works.

With the “combine function” you can generate the “final customized ink stamp” and download as STL. I created two components: One for the body and another one for the logo. In addition, the vast majority can customize it with their own logo/drawing/text. With these features, the object is feasible to be printed by anyone and without material waste. The item should also be printed with solely one hotend in a printer without capabilities to print multiple materials at the same time. It should be printed in place with an unique g-code. The item should consist of multiple materials, both rigid and flexible (PLA+TPU). The item should be fully printable with no supports. I want to share with you a customizable ink stamp! With this design I wanted to achieve multiple goals:
