I designed these food-based characters which I named The Edamame. The reason I chose these green beans is simply that I really like Edamame myself. I have also played toys shaped like edamame, so I thought that I could redesign it to transform it into a mascot. The design is very simple as the characters are the Edamame beans that came from the same bean pod. Although they are different in appearances and personalities, they still need each other and always unite together. I think this is what friends and families are supposed to be like, so I decided to put those qualities on these beans. Well, I hope you enjoy it! 🙂
