[[File:DTL1DrawScreen.png|left|240x240px]][[File:DTL2DrawScreen.png|right|240x240px]]'''Draw Mode''' is the main creative element in the [[Drawn to Life series]], consisting of many different tools and features. Draw Mode automatically activates every time the player goes to edit a creation, draw an object, create a [[Hero]], or draw on the main start screen.

In both games, the player may create up to three heroes, each with a custom name and appearance. Character creation also features fifteen pre-made character templates which can be traced or have their body parts swapped in by pressing the {{Icon|RButton}} button on the back of the DS.

Draw Mode utilizes the touch-screen capabilities of the Nintendo DS allowing for a more natural drawing experience, however, one may draw using the D-pad and A buttons if they desire.

Creations made using Draw Mode may be traded with other players using a local Wi-Fi connection.

 In Drawn to Life, the player can use 8 different tools and 25 colors for their creations.

 Draw Mode in Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter received a significant overhaul from its predecessor. Now featuring 12 tools total, 63 colors, guides for most creation objects, an advanced limb editor, multiple color-locking, and a color-picker. The overall interface changed substantially too, now being more consistent throughout all creation objects and doing away with the level-specific backdrops. However, the Draw Mode easels now changes depending on its location, which is a new feature not in the original game.
