For the 2014 Virginia Cantaloupe Festival, we introduced the character we created named "Lope."

Lope was presented as a playboy who could travel the world, but if he had his choice the Cantaloupe Festival was where he wanted to be.

He was featured in the custom illustrated poster we created for the festival, but you never knew where he would show up next! Below he's seen shopping at Lowe's and meeting with the Halifax County Tourism director.

We think the most fun thing of all, though, was putting the Halifax County Chamber of Commerce Director's head on Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" body in our version - "I Came in Like a Melon Ball."
