Mascot figurines for prizegiving
Your school mascot as a small hand-painted figurine. An award students keep long after the certificate is lost.
A certificate gets filed. A small figurine of the school mascot, with the award engraved on its base, goes on a shelf and stays there. We have had this request through our quote form, for end-of-term and end-of-year prizegiving, so here is how it works for one design or a whole series.
What to send us
- The mascot artwork, ideally the original files from whoever designed it, plus any drawings that show it from the side or back.
- Confirmation that the school owns the mascot or has the right to use it.
- How many designs: one mascot for every award, or a series with a different pose for each category, such as sport, academic, arts and service.
- How many of each design you need, and the exact wording for each engraved base.
- Your prizegiving dates.
One mascot, a whole series
We sculpt the mascot once from your artwork, agree the look with you through renders, and then pose it for each award: holding a ball, a book, a paintbrush, a trophy. The face, colours and proportions stay identical across the series, so the set looks like it belongs together.
Every figure is printed in resin and hand painted in the school colours. Award titles, years and names go on the base, engraved exactly as you supply them.
Once the designs exist, next year is a print rather than a new sculpt. Most schools give the same awards every year, and that is where a set like this comes into its own.
Size, material and finish
- Size
- Small, around 10cm, suits a prizegiving award and a student's shelf.
- Colour
- Hand painted, full colour, in the school colours.
- Material
- Resin, for crisp detail at a small size.
- Base
- Engraved with the award, the year and a name if you want one, or plain so names can be added later.
- Quantity
- One design or a series, and as many of each as you need.
How long it takes
Prizegiving dates are set well in advance, which makes them easy to plan for. The quote comes back within one working day with a lead time. Sculpting the series is the slow part and it is only done once. If student names are going on the bases, allow time between final results and engraving.
Questions
Can each award have its own design?
Yes. A series of poses, one per award category, is a natural fit. The mascot is sculpted once and posed for each, so the set stays consistent.
Can student names be engraved on the base?
Yes, if we have the names in time. Otherwise a base with just the award and the year works well.
Can we reorder next year?
Yes. Once the designs are approved, a reorder is a print rather than a new sculpt.
