Title:Start
This work is inspired by the origin story of Tohoku Zunko in stained glass style. I described it in the image of the scene she preciously holds an unknown bow and arrow.
(この作品は東北ずん子の始まりの物語をステンドグラス風に描いたものです。見知らぬ弓と矢を大事に抱えているシーンをイメージして描きました。)

Created by Kyulinosuzuke:I am Kyulinosuzuke, an illustrator.
I was born in Tohoku and often saw Tohoku Zunko on school posters, so I knew the character well. Recently, when I saw the official Tohoku Zunko on Twitter, I felt like supporting him, and I was happy to be able to participate in an event where I could exhibit NFT illustrations, so I participated in this project this time.

I remade my favorite work among the many Zunko arts I’ve been drawing for 5 years.

Title:Spread all over the world! Tohoku region!
I was inspired by the fact that the three Tohoku Zunko sisters are PR characters born to energize the Tohoku region. With the image of “Touhoku Zunko promoting her beloved Zunda Mochi and the Tohoku region to the world”, I drew the characters and the six Tohoku prefectures jumping out into the world.
(東北ずん子三姉妹が東北地方を元気にするために生まれたPRキャラクターということに着想を得ました。「ずん子が大好きなずんだ餅や東北地方を元気いっぱいに世界に発信していくよ!」というイメージで、飛び跳ねるずん子を中心にキャラクター達や東北6県が世界に向けて飛び出していく様子を描きました。)

Title:Zunda mochi and Tohoku Zunko
I thought that NFT art might catch the eyes of overseas fans, so I drew an illustration of Tohoku Zunko, centering on her typical images: the Japanese style, Zunda mochi, Yamato nadeshiko, and thighs!
(NFTアートということで海外の方の目にも触れる可能性もあると思い、和風、ずんだ餅、大和撫子、太もも、というベーシックな東北ずん子のイメージをイラストにしました。)

Created by kimutomo:I am the oldest fan (self-proclaimed) who has been supporting Tohoku Zunko since the year she was born. While supporting Zunko who keeps trying new things, fans are stepping into a new world before they know it. I think the relationship is very interesting. I will continue to support you until the end!

Itako and Kiritan are crazy about Zunko, but Zunko doesn’t know why.
