Cute Bunny Mascot Design for Horror Film Merchandise

I need a talented artist to design a cute Bunny mascot character for use in a horror film set in a small town. The Bunny will appear on town signage, t-shirts, plushes, and other merchandise within the movie. I require several variations, including versions with accessories like machetes or blood, but always keeping a cute mascot style. No Manga or hyper-realistic art styles. The design must be original—not based on any existing Bunny characters or logos due to copyright. No AI-generated art is allowed, as I must copyright the character. Deliverables should include vector files and any other formats suitable for print and merchandise. Upon completion, all rights to the artwork and character must be transferred to me via contract or release. I can share details of the film upon review of the proposal.
Ideal skills and experience:
- Strong portfolio in mascot or character design
- Experience creating artwork for merchandise
- Ability to deliver high-quality vector files
- Willingness to sign a rights transfer agreement
