Prize Winner

“When I think dessert I think ice cream. ‘There’s always room for ice cream’ is the thought I had in my head when I modeled this.

I used Blender for this piece, starting with the cookies then the ice cream then the cone. I added the googly eyes to make it cute and not just a random ice cream cone.”
