Strong rule: style --- Claymation ---. A middle-aged man with a round friendly face, compact sturdy build, smiling eyes, and a theatrical mustache. He wears a bright vendor uniform with a striped apron, paper cap, and gloves, giving him the look of a classic neighborhood ice cream seller with comic flair. His expression should balance charm and mock seriousness, as if he understands the fate of the universe depends on dessert. Place him at a glowing street kiosk at dusk with polished metal surfaces, menu boards, and colorful lights. Animated-feature character design, bold expressions, cinematic framing.
