Mascot Design for Brands, Teams & Costume Makers
Mascot design from our studio gives your brand a character people remember, with a look and personality built around your message.

- Costume artwork for mascot makers
- Line drawings and full-color illustrations
- AI, EPS, SVG, PDF, PNG and JPG
What Is Mascot Design?
Mascot design is the creation of a character that represents a brand, team or event. The designer defines its appearance, expressions and personality traits so it can appear in marketing campaigns, on packaging, in social posts and as a costume. A well-made mascot gives a brand a friendly face customers recognize quickly.
- Appearance and personality matched to your brand
- Poses that work in print, packaging and online
- Characters you own or have rights to use

Questions About Our Mascots
What is mascot design?
Mascot design is the process of creating a character that represents a brand, team or event. It covers the character’s appearance, expressions and personality traits, so it can be used in marketing campaigns, on packaging, in social media posts and as artwork for a costume.
How much does mascot design cost?
Mascots are quoted per project. A line drawing of an existing character costs less than a new mascot with several poses and full color. Send your brief with any sketches, and we email a fixed price and delivery date before any drawing work begins on your mascot.
Can you design artwork for a mascot costume?
Yes. We create clear costume artwork that mascot manufacturers and sellers can work from. Share the character and any size notes, and we draw the design so its shapes and colors are easy to translate into a physical costume.
Can you redraw my existing mascot?
Yes. Send the mascot as a sketch, snapshot or old image and we redraw it as clean vector artwork, either as a line drawing or a full-color illustration. We only work on characters you own or have the rights to use, and we do not recreate trademarked characters.
Which files will I receive?
You receive editable AI and EPS files plus SVG, PDF, PNG and JPG versions of each pose. The vector masters scale cleanly for packaging, banners and merchandise, while the image files are ready for social posts and quick approvals.
Will the mascot belong to my brand?
It can. When payment is complete and you ask for full ownership, we transfer the final mascot artwork and every pose we drew to you. Your team can then put the character on costumes, packaging, social posts and merchandise, or brief another studio later using the same files.
How do I order and pay for a mascot?
Send your brief through the form. After reviewing it, we email the exact price and schedule. Payment by PayPal, Visa or Mastercard begins the design. Every order includes 2 free revisions, and our 100% money-back guarantee applies if the mascot misses your brief.
