Update #5: Another t-shirt option
Hey backers,
Even though things are looking a bit grim with only 33 hours to go I am still excited about the project. I will find a way to make this mobile studio happen even if it doesn't happen through this Kickstarter attempt. I do appreciate all who have pledged to the project to this point. I am going to do a couple of final social media attempts and an e-blast to try and get a final push going. So while I do that here is another shirt options that I was thinking over. Enjoy!
Update #4: T-shirt concepts - hot rod letterpress
Here is the first shirt concept I have been working on. I love hot rods and this follows the hot rod theme. I decided to hot rod a Vandercook letterpress. Take a peek and let me know if you like the design. One of these may turn into the reward for the t-shirts.
Update #3: Large 18 x 28 hot rod themed posters
Here is an example of the large 18 x 28 inch hot rod themed posters. They were printed from 4 hand cut linoleum plates and printed on my Vandercook Universal III. If you have any question please feel free to ask.
Update #2: What do the random card sets look like?
Here are a few designs that will appear on the random card sets for those of you who have pledged that level of reward.
Update #1: Poster concepts
Thanks to all who have pledged so far! Your support is incredibly appreciated. Last night I was having fun putting together some ideas that I can turn into support posters. Here is one I liked a lot. This may or may not be the one I choose to cut out of linoleum. Let me know what you think.

Hey all, I am a graphic designer by day and a letterpress printer and sculptor by night. I love working with my hands to create things that appeal to me and it's great when others like them too. I love anything from the 1950's including cars, architecture, advertising and movies and it influences my design aesthetics. When I am not designing for paying clients I like to cut linoleum for my hot rod art that I print on my letterpress. Check out my links below to see my illustration, screen print and letterpress work.
