Hey Igor,

Thanks for including Appboy in the list. Great breakdown of some good icons for brands too. I totally agree that having an image that can reflect the brand is key.

my favorit mascot in this posting is IconFinder and mediocore.

These are all great – although the FreelanceSwitch mascot always creeps me out a little. He reminds me of Igor or perhaps the hunchback of notre dame.

MascotArtist.com has some interesting website mascots up on their site. Worth looking into if you’re in the market for one!

I agree with Sherice. That freelance switch mascot has always wigged me out. I like the mascot design over at FastCharacters.com. They have a tight gallery of work.

Nice vectors. Inspired me to design my mascot.

Thanks for posting this list. The tutorials were really inspiring. I tried illustrating a mascot design for a project of mine and couldn’t seem to get it right. In the end I decided on getting some professional help. The designing team at http://www.mascotdesigncorner.com managed to realize my vision of illustrating a character design that was above expectations. I highly recommend them. For the price I paid it was indeed a steal. I guess I am not good at designing at all. Anyway, thanks for providing a source of inspiration I might add. This site rocks big time!

Those are awesome, great collection! I’ve seen some of them around, but it was interesting to see some of the ones I haven’t seen before.
