Extraterrestrial Portrait by Thomas and Brian

Extraterrestrial Recreation by Andrew and Joy

Description by Brian and Thomas Our little wierd-oh alien is from Uranus. Its home planet has stellar winds up to 700 miles per hour. So of course he has to be strong. Now for our description. His hair is outlined in red and is colored in mostly yellow. The shape is like zig-zaggy fire, and it's as big as your ear. Its head is the shape of a square and the size of a thumb. It's yellow. Its teeth are part of his head and are white. The teeth are the size of the metal part on your pencil without the eraser. It has a cigar in his mouth that is as big as the metal on your pencil. His eyes are the size of a hole in a binder paper and they're the shape of half ovals with a blue pupil inside. His neck is a rectangle the size of the metal on your pencil. It has two plates on both sides of his neck. The plates are outlined in brown and have stripes the color is brown. Its body is like a blimp. Its size is as large as a fist. It is in colored in yellow and has the words, "Air Nike" written in black. It also has a Nike sign under the words. It has two Ls forming a goal post under the Nike sign. It has a tube the size of a pinky. Its arms are a bunch of circles with red veins going through. Nike has paws like a cat with three claws. The paw is orange and the size of a thumb and the nails are the size of the metal part of a pencil. He is wearing shorts that are the size of two thumbs. They are green and the top is the size of the tip of the tip of a pencil. The legs are under the shorts with veins the size of the veins in the arms. Then he has shoes that are blue with Nike signs and a white part at the top of the shoe. Our alien should fill up the entire vertical part of the page. You are now done with our weirdo creature. Did you have fun?

Analysis by Thomas and Brian When Andrew and Joy drew Nike they did a lot of things right. They wrote Air Nike on his body, his shoes were the right color, and they put zig-zaggy hair. They made his head yellow and they made his body the right color. They also put the right color on his paws, they drew a cigar, his pants are the right color, and the plates on his neck were the right color. But they also made a lot of mistakes because of our description. For instance, they made the size of the teeth wrong because we should've said all of the teeth were the size of the metal part of the pencil. Plus they made the wrong color and shape of the hair. We should've said it's also a cone shape and it should be colored in mostly orange. They did the wrong inlining of his body. We should've said the upper part of the goal post. His neck is the wrong color because we didn't tell what color it was. His shorts are too long because we should've said that they were the size of thumb tips. His arms don't have red veins, and they were in the wrong position because we should've said in a vertical position. He also had no Nike sign on his shorts because we didn't say to draw one. He also had no legs because we didn't say to start at the top of the page and they ran out of room. But all and all we compliment them on their work.
