Icons8
by Icons8 Team
Icons8's plugin mixes illustration packs with icons and photos in one panel, handy when a landing page needs all three in matching styles. It runs in Figma Design, Slides and FigJam. The free tier asks for a link back to Icons8 and paid options are sold in-app, so plan for that if attribution isn't possible on your site.2.3M 9.7KFree + paid - #4

Illustrations
by Manthankumar Satani
Illustrations brings several popular illustration libraries into a drag-and-drop panel in Figma Design and FigJam, free with no in-app purchases. Its listing says the artwork can be used under a Creative Commons licence; check which licence applies to each library you use. As a curated collection, it has a narrower range than a marketplace like Flaticon.483K 5.2KFree - #10

Buying guide
What to look for
Two kinds of plugin share this list. Libraries like Icons8, IconScout, Illustrations, Flaticon and Pictographic insert ready-made artwork, while drawing tools like Fast Isometric, Isometric Studio and Isometrix help you make your own. Figma also has Make image in the Actions menu (Cmd/Ctrl+K), which generates an image from a prompt. That gives you a raster image, not editable vectors you can recolour.
Product illustration usually needs one style across onboarding, empty states and error pages. Before choosing a library, check it has enough scenes in a single style to cover all of those, not just one good hero image.
- 01
Licence and attribution
Creative Commons licences vary; some require credit, some don't. Marketplace free tiers often ask for a link. Read the terms for the specific pack before using it on a live site.
- 02
Vector or PNG
Vector artwork can be recoloured and resized; PNGs can't be recoloured cleanly. Pictographic, for example, offers both formats, so pick vector when you have the choice.
- 03
Depth of one style
Count how many scenes exist in the style you like. Ten matching illustrations are more useful than a thousand mismatched ones.
- 04
Drawing tools for original work
If stock art won't do, isometric tools that extrude shapes and move them along isometric axes let you build original illustrations of your own UI.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I use illustrations from Figma plugins commercially?
Often yes, but the terms come from the illustration library, not the plugin. Creative Commons licences differ on attribution, and Icons8's free tier asks for a link back. Check the licence for each pack before it goes on a live product or site.
How do I make isometric illustrations in Figma?
Use a plugin that projects flat shapes onto an isometric grid. Fast Isometric and Isometric Studio are the most used, and Isometrix adds dimetric and skew tools. For full 3D, see our 3D plugins.
Can Figma AI make illustrations?
Make image in the Actions menu generates an image from a prompt, but the result is a raster image. For vector output, AI Logo & Illustration Generator says it creates SVG logos and illustrations using Recraft V3.
How do I recolour an illustration to match my brand in Figma?
Select the vector illustration and look at Selection colors in the right panel, which lists every colour in the selection. Change each one to a brand colour or variable. This only works on vectors, not PNGs. For building the palette itself, see our colour plugins.
Where can I find free illustrations for Figma?
Illustrations and Pictographic are both free; Pictographic lists 80,000+ illustrations across more than 10 styles in vector and PNG. The Figma Community also has many free illustration files you can copy from.
