This was my approved design, pulling together my idea of Victorians at leisure, a sunday afternoon stroll complete with flying machines, an organ grinder with his monkey and the obligatory moustache.
Below are progress images taken as I painted the mascot...
 |
| First stage of drawing my design onto the blank white mascot, then painting on the background colour |
I used acrylic paint for both mascots, which looked pretty streaky to begin with - a good few coats were required!
 |
| Building up the design and adding in the characters one by one |
The black line of the Paralympic logo was applied as a transfer over the painted background colour and then I had to mask it to paint in the surrounding colour.

| The Finished Mascot |
The Stroll:Discovery Trail takes place around London July 27 - September 9, this mascot will be located in Regent's Park for that time.
