Time Machine in a Bustling Cartoon Marketplace

Cartoon-style illustration of a bustling marketplace. Colorful stalls with striped awnings, baskets of fruit, and lively vendors. In the center stands a quirky time machine: brass and wood, ornate gears, levers, and a glowing swirling portal that radiates neon blue and purple energy. Thick black outlines and cel shading give a classic 2D animation look. Warm sunlight filters through market awnings, creating playful shadows. A diverse crowd of shoppers and shopkeepers frolic and haggle, with a curious child pointing at the machine and a street musician nearby. Background features subtle clockwork motifs in the architecture and time-themed decorations. Overall mood is whimsical, adventurous, and humorous. Style: bold cartoon, vibrant colors, dynamic perspective, exaggerated expressions.
