Step 1: Start with large oval at top. Follow the contour of that oval to create a curve under it as shown. Draw a smaller oval below that. Pay attention to the distance between each line/shape. Take about 30 seconds.
Step 2: Draw a 1/2 circle coming from the top oval. Draw lines coming down from each edge of the oval that connect to the curve beneath it. Draw a triangle shape coming from the bottom oval. Add a curve following the contour of the oval edge connecting the base of the triangle.
Step 3: Connect top and bottom shapes with lines that curve inward to create the sundae cup. Add 2 parallel lines at top to start the straw. Add curves at top, sides, and base as desired to start the whipped cream. Take 30 seconds or so.
Step 4: Add oval at straw top with curves on it to create a striped pattern. Draw 1/2 circle with stem in whipped cream for a cherry. Draw pattern on sundae cup.
Step 5: Take 30 seconds to add layer of tone to cherry, straw, and cup.
Step 6: Blend tones, then add depth to whipped cream with shade as shown. Deepen tones on cup.
Step 7: Blend tones further to create more contrast. Use kneaded eraser to lighten areas of shine or highlight (see straw).
Extra time: Erase edges to make lines crisper. Add more highlight and deepen shadow for contrast on cream and cup. Add a 3D lip to cup edge. Smooth with blending tools, following the direction of the shade and line for desired effect.
