Cobotron

Hey team,
On top of finals, I've been handling a couple commissions. The largest of which is a project I've been working on with COBO Center here in Detroit. They're undergoing a $299,000,000 renovation and needed a mascot for the construction happening around the building.
Over a period of about four weeks, we went through around six different ideas, 
finally settling on "the coborobo" and turning him into "cobotron". 
I had the opportunity to attend a press conference on the unveiling of the mascot which was a huge honor and took some photos with some of the big names in Detroit's city planning. 
Check out the plans for the new face of Cobo here. It feels good to be a part of something that will help to revitalize the city of Detroit. Thanks to Joe Ruffolo and Thom Connors for giving me this opportunity.
