MetroCon Theme Mascot Contestant 2

So like I figured, not enough clothes, not that there is much more here but there is some....

MetroCon Theme Mascot Contestant

My close friend Tyler finally got a decent gig with MetroCon after being last years mascot. His Girlfriend, also a longtime Metro enthusiast is trying out for mascot this year. Im not sure how much Im suppose to say about the theme but considering this blog is only really read by me, potentially college reps soon enough and a few friends its prob not bad to post this.

So Sasha (tys gf) came to me and ask me to design her "monster" character for this years convention. The specs were that it had to have this snout-prosthetic that she really wanted to incorporate into the design and so the below concept painting represents that. This will probably be the first version of this piece considering that I need to put more clothes on said character not to mention accessories and various jungle-what-nots.

KuroShiroNoDaiko (Black and White Taiko)

I believe Ive mentioned in other posts that Im in taiko. I will be moving back to Tampa soon and when I do I will be establishing a taiko group there. As a member of the SME, I wanted to found it on the colors of the org (black and white) so Ive designed it as such. Here is the Mon for the new taiko unit Im forming.

Here is a pic of the first batch of Sakura Kanzashi. After all the manhours on this (roughly 20) I feel like these should go for about 10$ a peice
