You know what the best part about making aliens is? There’s not wrong way to make one! You can get as ridiculous or creepy as you like and make your alien with any number of limbs or eyes or teeth. In fact, the quirkier your alien, the better! We’ve gone with monochrome aliens, but feel free to mix up colors so you have rainbow aliens too.
