Draw This in Your Style challenge - What's Mr. Joy Made Today?!

We're currently hosting a DTIYS challenge- with a twist.

If you accept the challenge, you get to draw the local neighbourhood Definitely Human (cough) ice cream man, Mr. Joy! He's something straight of the 1950s, and his ice cream is to Die for. But, despite that, he has this odd, insatiable hunger... and your people food just ain't gonna cut it.

💎 Deadline: January 15th

1st prize will be a bust-shot piece akin to the DTIYS image.⁣

2nd prize is a lined sketch piece (if we get to 10 entries, it'll be coloured).

⚠️ Rules

Please post to the #OtherbuttonsDTIYS tag, and @ us. is DM us the entry with what's in the Ice Cream.

You have to draw both Joy and the Ice Cream. If you really can't think of a flavour, feel free to use the examples listed. You're also welcome to change the pose, background, make it creepier, etc. Just gotta be Joy and his Ice Cream.

the Ice Cream must be Non-Food based in flavour, and generally look inconspicuous. Sweet-based toppings are fine. Outside of meats, Mr Joy has a visceral reaction to savoury-salty based foods & condiments, so those are big no-gos.

🍦  Fun Joy Details

Joy has too much of one thing, and too little of the others: Four extra teeth, two on each side of his mouth near the back. The ring finger on his left hand is missing, having been cut cleanly from its base; the fourth toe on his left foot is also cut cleanly off. It's fine though; he still has ten toes (his right foot has six).

Joy always seems a little... melty, in the sunlight. Not too much, just in the droops of his wrinkles and such. And usually around the cold of freezers, his cheeks and nose are often a-blush; although... they're a-blush even in the warmth, too. If you'd like to know more about Joy, or get more inspiration, his bio is linked in our bio!
