Description This is a piece I did that was inspired by Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and his Rat Fink Drawings.

Illustrator CS5, Intuos 3 tablet. Sketched in PS first the rendered in AI. T-shirt design for now with 4 color printing in mind, but I may render it further.

Thanks for Looking!

There are a few people i would love to meet or wished I coulda met. Roth is certainly one of them. Dave Mann would be another along with Chip Foose and David Uhl (though I've heard he is not so sociable).

Chip Foose can draw such amazing car's so fast It's unbelievable . I'm sure you watch Overhauln . I'd like him to do my 2002 Lightning on that show . Just so I can ask that babe AJ to marry me .Plus get the truck done ? I'd be there . I love his black F100 When I met Roth he showed me and my brother a couple picture's of the Conestoga  Wagon he just finished with the go cart engine . I had him sign a lawn Fink I bought and had no idea he was going to be at the show. I see him standing all alone and said to my bro hey! look ! he says ED ROTH WOW!!! and the rest my friend is as they say is history.I asked him to go for a ride in my " UFO" but he said he  was busy . I'll look up David Uhl not sure who he is

Love Overhaulin! Cool Story bout big daddy! Dave Mann was under roth for a while and di all the easy rider paintings. David Uhl is the official painter for harley now. He is more of a realism painter but has killer style!

Josh - I'm holding a pre-1975 custom and vintage motorcycle show in July in Rhode Island .  Any chance you would become a sponsor by letting me use this as the artwork for the posters and t-shirts?  You will be listed as a sponsor on all promotional material.

Thanks,

Josh Comerford -RI

Nice take on Big Daddy, don't see this style as much as we should!
I've got a few original CARtoons magazines from the 50's and early 60's that feature his work on the covers that are amazing!

Thanks! I totally agree, but his influence is still very evident. I've got some of those mags too and I love the loose style he had!
