Hopadillo at the Super Bowl!
Hopadillo is the brand mascot for one of the most popular craft beers brewed by the Karbach Brewing Company. I had the pleasure to create this mascot for Karbachs participation at Super Bowl LI which took place in Houston. Hoppy is what happens when you cross an armadillo and hops leaves: An armadillo with hops leaves for scales. In order to create Hoppys look it was necessary to build several large prosthetics which where covered by hand stenciled leaves and then attached to a large onesie. This was followed by a similar approach in the building of the gloves and spats in order to create a larger that life effect. As you can tell from the pictures, Hoppy is a very personable fellow who enjoys hanging out, spinning a hula-hoop and attacking unsuspecting employees.
