Since Hamtaro is @Manuelasparkles favourite show (probably) she asked me to make her a drawing featuring Kylie and his pet hamster Penelope in her belly because it's cute.
@Manuelasparkles wanted to have it set on a beach though.

But the thing here is that the scenario depicted (Penelope on Kylie's belly) could've meant that @Manuelasparkles was thinking in a bird's eye view.
But the problem with bird's eye view is that it needs a traditional fried egg composition (everything centered) and that's kinda boring.
So I tilted the horizon line a little bit to make some sense of such request.

Then you have a problem with me, because I'm not good at "Anime Art Style" because I've never practiced it before.
This took me out of my confort zone (semi-realistic proportions, semi-realistic light and shadow, anatomy, perspective, etc. as far as my understanding on such matters allows me to go) and it kinda looks weird because I don't know how to mix Anime with my Semi-realism.

Then I thought that @Manuelasparkles might love to colour her own version of Kylie and Penelope.
So I'm uploading a full resolution picture for everyone to download and print, and then, you can colour it at home with whatever you want, like watercolors, markers or pencils.

Have fun coloring this!

I'm not happy with it. I tried to stick with the original design and tried to be as faithful as possible to the style the characters are originally designed, because I think that's how Manuela best recognizes'em.

This put me out of my comfort zone and it's shown

I don't think I will do anymore of these.
I was just trying to have a nice gesture for Manuela as she's the kindest woman I've ever met.
