Various Anime Detour mascot concept art (2017-2023)
This art was done between 2017-present for the Anime Detour convention in Minneapolis, MN. Before 2017 there was one main mascot character, but I designed an additional extra cast of recurring mascot characters for variety and to help reflect different aspects of the many attendees to the convention.
Cover art for the Programing Guide booklet. That year's theme was "New Game Plus" so the characters are in an RPG-related party. (2018)
