Logo for Website and Newsletter

Summary

Project: Logo mascot — line-art camel for a newsletter brand Brand: Dry But Thirsty — a newsletter about living without alcohol (sober-curious lifestyle, non-alcoholic drink reviews). The name is a wink: "dry" (no alcohol) but still "thirsty" for good drinks and good times. The mascot should carry that wit — a camel is the natural fit because camels are the animal famous for not needing to drink. What I need: A single mascot icon, delivered as clean vector line art. This is primarily a social-media avatar, so it has to read clearly inside a circle crop at small sizes (as small as 48×48 px). Subject: A personified camel — standing upright (on two legs?) like a character/mascot, one arm raised holding a coupe cocktail glass (the shallow, wide martini-style glass), as if making a relaxed toast. Friendly, dry-humored, a little suave. One hump. A short straw or a citrus garnish on the glass is welcome but optional. Style: Even-weight line art. Elegant, not chunky. A single-weight outline, minimal interior detail. Two colors maximum. Line color: natural tones Background: warm cream, hex #FFF3E2. Also deliver a transparent-background version. If a drink garnish (citrus wheel, straw) appears, render it in the same plum line, not a separate color. Line treatment: strictly line-only (open outlines, nothing filled) — with one exception: the camel's eye may be a single small solid plum dot for a focal point. Nothing else filled. Composition: Full-body mascot, centered, with even margin so nothing clips when cropped to a circle. Balanced silhouette that still reads at avatar size — no fine details that vanish when shrunk. Avoid (important — these are clichés in the sobriety space): no broken bottles, no halos, no red "no" circle/slash, no crossed-out martini, no AA or recovery symbolism, no religious imagery. Keep it light and celebratory, not preachy or clinical. Deliverables: Vector source: SVG (and AI or EPS if you work in Illustrator) PNG with transparent background, at least 1024×1024 PNG on the cream #FFF3E2 background, 1024×1024 A version that reads cleanly at small size (a 512×512 export is fine to confirm this) Optional, if easy: a one-color-plus-tangerine variant (citrus garnish in hex #FF8A3C) from the same drawing, as an alternate — but the two-color plum-on-cream version is the primary deliverable. Rights: I need full commercial rights and copyright ownership transferred to me (work-for-hire / exclusive rights), since this will be my brand's logo and I may file it as part of a trademark later. Please confirm this is included before we start.
