Character Bento Box Unveiled

Character Name:
(Scene/Moment)
A photo capturing the moment when the lid of a character-style bento boxed for sale was opened.

The moment the contents appear, a transparent or paper lid covers the bento just enough not to hide it.

(Expression of Packaging and Lid)
On the outside of the lid, a commercial package design inspired by the character from the reference image is printed. Various exaggerated promotional slogans exaggerating reference images are displayed with high quality and high sense.

The design looks like it would be lined up at an actual ekiben booth
Illustrations featuring characters stylized around the theme of "food."
The color count is modest, with a layout reminiscent of food labels, logos, and catchphrases
Displays prices that exaggerate the concept of the bento with reference images.

The product features humorous product names that highlight the character's character
If the character name at the beginning is preset, use it
The glossy print, paper thickness, and folded parts are all rendered realistically
*This lid is closely linked to the concept of the contents.
(Composition & Shooting Style)
Photographing the bento placed on the table from a slightly diagonal overhead view (a product photography-like flat lay).

8K resolution, ultra-realistic food photos.

The quality feels natural even when lined up at the 'Convenience Store, Department Store Basement, and Ekiben Fair.'
(Container - Lunch box)
A lunch box with a realistic feel, typical of mass-produced products.

Standard lunch containers in black, white, and wood grain tones
With partitions or integrated types
From rounded corners and molding marks to the shadows of the edges, everything is realistic

The basic structure of character expression
Face & Body:

Three-dimensional rice (white rice, mixed rice, mixed rice, etc., changing according to the concept)
Facial expressions and contours:

Expressed three-dimensionally with seaweed, salted kelp, sesame, fried pasta, chopped vegetables, and more
Side dishes tailored to different concepts
The features of the reference image are exaggerated in the concept.
Instead of fixed menus, you can freely change according to your character or worldview.
All the side dishes are made up solely of real ingredients and cooking methods,

Each piece has a solid sense of depth and texture.
(Color Design)
The colors in the reference images are not used directly,
Translated only with natural colors as ingredients.
White and light brown rice
The golden color of fried foods
The greens of the vegetables
The red of tomatoes, plums, and carrots
The yellow of the egg
Black seaweed and sesame
Not "color-coding."
Designed to make characters recognizable through differences in texture, shape, and placement.
(Text and logo expression: Enhancing the selling point)
In the empty space inside bento, product names and catchphrases are expressed in three dimensions using ingredients.

Exaggerate the features of the reference image.
The text is entirely composed of "edible items."
(Background & Environment)
Randomly select outdoor areas
Natural light from the side
The glossy oil of the fried chicken, the moisture of the rice, and the freshness of the vegetables are emphasized
The overall color temperature is warm, making the lighting look the most appetizing in the store
(Overall tone)
"Cute" + "It really looks like it's for sale"
