“Favorite hat ever!”
“Kirstie worked on my small business logo. She did an excellent job on that so I then asked her to help me with a website for another small business of mine and a logo for my 2026 golf invitational. I put the custom mascot on hats for the guys in my golf group for the 2026 golf invitational. The group said, and I quote, “Favorite hat ever!” – love the logos and looking forward to seeing my second small business’s website come together.”

“She kept my website on-brand, modern, and unique.”
“I run two small businesses, a masonry company and a custom home building company. Kirstie built a website for my Northwood Homes website. She used the logo suite I had developed before partnering with her for the website and she kept my website on-brand, modern, and unique.”

Custom Mascot Illustration
Price starting at $620
Includes custom, hand-drawn character in 2 variations
This includes one custom character in two distinct variations. You can choose between two different poses, two facial expressions, or a combination of both to ensure your mascot has the perfect personality for your brand.
Based on the Custom Mascot Deep Dive, I will develop one character in two variations with the feel and personality that aligns with your brand, including potential facial expressions or stances.
After the character development phase is complete, I will then begin sketching the character. I typically begin my sketches in a journal with a pencil and then digitally trace my sketch on my iPad. I submit sketches to you for review before I move on to digitally tracing the sketch.
After the client approves the sketches and I’ve digitized the character with my iPad, I will work on creating vector files in Adobe Illustrator. The final files will include black and white and colorized versions of the final mascot in both poses.
The final files will be added to the private Notion client portal for download.
For branding clients: I can integrate your custom mascot into your logo suite, whether you are a Full Branding or Branding Mini client. Please note that the Custom Mascot Suite is a separate investment and is not included in the base price of branding packages.
Note: I do not draw mascots that perpetuate hateful or harmful messages. My mascots are typically drawn with retro-inspired features. Please see my portfolio to see my drawing style!
