	The whole Hamtaro thing at least, persistent as this rumor may be across all these years, isn't true, though.

But there's a reason why this may have come up as a misunderstanding:

	Masatomo Sudō and Junko Yamanaka, the two character designers for Hamtaro, were in charge for the design (including the characters and other things) of the Detective Conan series (including lots of the movies and OVAs), too. Someone probably wrote this as "The designer(s)/artist(s) of Detective Conan made the Hamtaro character designs" in the earlier days of the internet, before it became "Gosho Aoyama made the Hamtaro character designs" over time, with seemingly no one ever fact-checking ~~where~~ it's true.

Drawing style: Gosho probably didn't work on Hamtaro

@@ Line 7: / Line 7: @@
 Aoyama stated that he uses realistic animals, locations, trees, and cars. He got them from books which he copies them over and later drawn it himself which it looks more realistic. Gosho Aoyama's coloring art is also great. It is unknown how he's coloring his characters in the manga, but it is known how he colors them in when he is creating characters from real life. He uses short lines to color in and evenly when he is creating a poster for a new film from his series. Standard in Gosho Aoyama's drawing is the ears of the characters and the eyes, which is colored blue with a black pupil and in the mid a shining horizontal line and most popular the nose of each character which only the underside of the nose is seen instead of the whole only by adults the line has been seen. Gosho Aoyama also did the character designs of the popular children anime series Hamtaro.
