Mascots are images with special symbolic significance, which are often used for the promotion of large-scale activities or important festivals. The design of the mascot is very important. Whether it can attract people's attention and stimulate people's emotions is closely related to pattern design. Below I will introduce how to draw the mascot pattern from several aspects.

1. Choose the image according to the theme: the image of the mascot needs to conform to the theme and cultural background to be expressed, so before starting the design, you must first determine the theme and choose the image according to the theme. For example, if it is a Spring Festival activity, you can choose animals related to the Spring Festival, such as pigs and rats. If it is a sports meeting, you can choose to add sports elements, such as gymnastics and running.

2. Design and modeling: The modeling of mascots should be simple, easy to remember and distinctive. First of all, we must determine the basic appearance and posture, such as expressions, gestures, movements and so on. , and then add details, such as eyes, mouth, nose, etc. This will have a far-reaching impact on the image of the mascot.

Bright colors are generally chosen to attract people's attention. At the same time, we should also consider the cultural background and symbolic significance of color. For example, red represents auspiciousness and enthusiasm in China culture.

4. Use tools: When making mascot patterns, you can use traditional tools such as pencils, erasers and correction fluids. And you can also use electronic painting software. If you use electronic drawing software, you can draw by touching the screen or using a professional drawing board, which can control lines and colors more accurately.

5. Constantly revise and improve: In the process of mascot pattern design, it needs to be revised and improved. You can draft many times, turn your ideas into actual patterns, and then observe the effect and make adjustments. In addition to your own creativity, you can also learn from other mascot images to enrich and improve your own design.
