The steps in words

  1. Draw a big, wide oval. This is the alien's head.
  2. Add two antennae on top: a short line with a small circle at the end of each.
  3. Inside the head, draw two big eyes with a shine, little eyebrows and a smiling mouth.
  4. Under the head, draw a small body shaped like an upside-down drop.
  5. Add one waving arm, a second arm hanging down and two short legs.
  6. Go over all the lines in black. The alien says hello!

Tip: An alien can look however you like: try three eyes, four antennae or a long body. There are no mistakes in space.
