Frequently asked questions

Which pencil is best to use?
Use a regular graphite pencil (HB), so you can easily erase the guide lines at the end.
What should I do if my circle isn't perfect?
That doesn't matter at all; in real life, a hamster is also a bit fluffy and uneven!
How do I make the hamster extra cute?
Draw the eyes slightly larger and shiny by leaving a small white dot inside the black.
Can I color my hamster too?
Of course! Hamsters are often brown, gray, or white, but you can give it any color you like.
