Graffiti - ALIEN

Hello. Today I did the word 'Alien' in graffiti. I love the Hive account@alienarthive community and all the great art that gets submitted there. One day I hope to be as talented as some of the creators on there. I really need to get back to practicing drawing characters etc, but have been enjoying creating graffiti recently.

When I decided to do the word 'alien' I had the idea of dotting the i with a UFO. But, as I began I realised that I could use them beam of the UFO to replace the i and break up the word nicely with a alien graphic. I added a alien giving the peace sign into the UFO then got started fitting the rest of the word around this.
I was going to go with a fancier style, but none of what I tried fit with the UFO that I had already drawn. I went back to bubble letters and gave the overall shape of the word a u shape at the top. I decided to add crop circles throughout the letters, to fit in more with the alien theme.
