Yet many mascot projects end as a drawing filed away in a brand book. For us, the drawing is only the beginning. Because we have been making our own art toys since 2023, we design every character so it can live everywhere: on your screens, on your packaging, on your trade-show stand\u2026 and as a physical figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"who-is-it-for\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is it for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our custom mascot design service is for brands that want a character that is both strong and built to last:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>consumer brands looking for a face for their communication, social media or packaging;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>premium, fashion or streetwear brands that want a desirable character, far from the usual giveaway;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>companies, clubs, festivals or local authorities that want to rally a community around a symbol;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>brands with an ageing mascot that want to modernise it without losing what makes it recognisable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"whats-included\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s included<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every mascot design project includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>a briefing workshop<\/strong> to understand your brand, audience, values and how the character will be used;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>style research and sketches<\/strong>: several directions, silhouettes and attitudes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>development of the chosen direction<\/strong>: proportions, colours, details, accessories;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>a 3D model<\/strong> of the character, built from the start so it can be produced as a figure (wall thickness, parts, balance);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>feedback rounds<\/strong> at every stage, so you stay in control of the result.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-it-works\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How it works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Brief<\/strong>: one meeting to frame your goals, constraints and timeline.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sketches<\/strong>: we present several directions and you pick one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Refinement<\/strong>: the mascot takes its final shape, in colour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3D modelling<\/strong>: the character becomes a volume, from every angle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Variations<\/strong>: views, expressions and usage rules.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>What\u2019s next?<\/strong> If you wish, we move straight on to the prototype and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.popterror.com\/en\/studio\/custom-figure-manufacturing\">figure manufacturing<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"deliverables\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deliverables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the end of the project you receive a complete kit, ready for your teams and agencies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>the character sheet<\/strong>: the full mascot, its colours and main details;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>the turnaround<\/strong>: front, side and back views, essential for 3D and manufacturing;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>a set of expressions<\/strong> (joy, surprise, anger\u2026) to bring your communication to life;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>usage guidelines<\/strong>: dos and don\u2019ts, minimum sizes, reference colours;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>the source files<\/strong>: Illustrator files, research and final versions, plus the <strong>3D model<\/strong> when it is part of the quote;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>as an option, <strong>animated 3D renders<\/strong> or staged scenes of the mascot in different settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"options\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Physical figure<\/strong>: 3D-printed resin prototype, then mass production in vinyl or PVC.
