LITTLE ORBIT AND CARTOON NETWORK ANNOUNCE WINNER OF 'DESIGN A NEW ADVENTURE TIME CHARACTER' CONTEST
Meet Sunny - The Travelling Collector of Ooo's Rarest Artifacts Who Will Debut In Adventure Time: Finn and Jake Investigations Video Game This Fall
Santa Ana, CA. – May 6, 2015 –Little Orbit and Cartoon Network have selected the winner of the Adventure Time 'Design a Character' Contest. Fans were challenged to create an original Adventure Time character that will appear in the just-announced Adventure Time: Finn and Jake Investigations video game. The winner was chosen from nearly one thousand entries.
The Grand Prize winner is Marcel Ramos of Long Beach, California. Marcel created the winning character named Sunny. A travelling Collector of Ooo's Rarest Artifacts, Sunny uses The Lantern of Infinite Treasures as a Compass. Sunny explores the vast Land of Ooo on his own, which makes him a little shy and timid. Marcel's original artwork of Sunny can be seen above.
"The Adventure Time community has an amazing number of hugely talented artists so narrowing it down to one winner to put into the game was a very difficult task," said Matt Scott, CEO of Little Orbit. "We were very impressed with not only the art talent, but the creativity and thought that went into the backstories of these characters, and how well so many of them would fit into the Land of Ooo."
