Arbuz (meaning Watermelon in Russian) is a frozen yogurt cafe in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. They had a comic strip drawn by a previous artist that they wanted to incorporate heavily into their materials. I turned the comic's title into the company logo, and extracted the anthropomorphic watermelon characters, turning them into company mascots. I was able to manipulate the character art to place the mascots in countless positions across all of their marketing materials. This was met with great adoration in the neighborhood, and Arbuz saw a spike in their customer base.
