Branding & Character Design for Who's Your Caddie / Trailblazers
📌 Overview
We’re building a mobile and web-based disc golf application called Who’s Your Caddie , featuring a community initiative called Trailblazers. Trailblazers rewards users for contributing disc golf course data, forming the backbone of our shared course database.
Our current visuals are AI-generated. While they help communicate our concept, we’re not designers. We’re looking to partner with a skilled artist to replace them with professional, scalable, and distinctive assets that reflect the project’s fun, bold spirit.
💰 Budget Our budget for this engagement is $1200–$2000 USD , depending on experience and scope. We welcome proposals that justify the higher end through deeper involvement or additional creative contributions (e.g. animation support, expanded characters, etc.).
🎨 Scope of Work
We are looking for a collaborative artist to help us shape the visual identity of both Who’s Your Caddie and Trailblazers. Deliverables include:
● ● Final branding design for:
○ Who's Your Caddie (main app)
○ Trailblazers (community initiative)
● Logo creation :
○ Horizontal, vertical, and icon-only versions
○ Color, grayscale, and monochrome variations
○ Formats for web, mobile, and merchandise use
● Character illustration :
○ 1–3 polished, cartoon-style characters in a consistent "house" style
○ Designed for use in UI, marketing, and community-building contexts
○ Styled for expansion — future characters should match
● Export-ready assets :
○ SVG, PNG, and native layered formats (Affinity Designer 2 preferred, PSD acceptable)
○ Clearly labeled and organized file structures
● Optional but preferred :
○ Brand color palette (primary, secondary, highlight, background)
○ Font recommendations (web-safe or packaged with license)
○ General design advice to unify and elevate our current approach
📁 Deliverables
● ✅ Logos (horizontal, vertical, icon-only; full color, grayscale, monochrome)
● ✅ Characters (1 male + 1 female, final polished illustrations)
● ✅ Brand Colors (full palette with usage notes)
● ✅ Fonts (recommended pairings, license info if applicable)
● ✅ Exports (SVG, PNG, and editable layered files for each asset)
Collaboration Style
We value partnership over handoff. You won’t be stuck guessing — you’ll work directly with the founder and get:
● Rapid feedback
● Clear direction
● Reference images and working prototypes
● Space to push back and suggest smarter ideas
Our AI samples were created in isolation — now we want your expertise to refine and elevate them into a professional, flexible, and emotionally resonant brand.
This project may expand into future collaborations, including additional characters, illustrations, animations, or seasonal themes. We’re hoping to build a lasting relationship with the right artist.
