Well it was a tough call with all these submissions but I think this one fits the best with the theme and he also tried more then once, though I am sure you all put in the effort I can only see what he tried and the two submissions are similar theme but vastly different in skill.

Well the second one is far better, which is why I prefer a tablet over a mouse because its as close to a penciel and paper as I think you can get without getting too expensive. But I do like the classic grey men alien you did, its an iconic alien though you might want to try inking the image to add a bit more contrast. Have you ever tried inking with a pen and erasing to clean up the sketchy parts? I know shrinking down the image is a simple way to hide the sktchyness but its something to think about.
Runner Up

Well I think its good but could be alot better with some debries, maybe a torn up pieces of the suit floating around. Maybe try some lighting as well, a reflective helmet and simple 3 tone shading would be good.

Space invaders lol well I think its cool that is suppose to be the AG logo as a ship right? idk this would be great if we had a video game alien theme...I just think aside from some text and 2 simple sprites that its simple and elegant but not alot of content to look at. Maybe should try an exploded alien in there or having a few shields like in the old game.

Well it looks like you got half way there on your sketch then stopped but warhammer still on your mind lol. Anyways what I suggest is practicing some perspective. Learn to think about 2d drawings in a 3d space. Practice simple volumes like cylinders, cubes and spheres then try dividing a drawing into those shapes. After you get the hang of drawin simple 3d things work on composing forground/background and giving the objects an illusion of "weight" .

Well it is interesting but I am not sure hotdog men and giraffes count as aliens. Also did you
just cut out some hand drawn things and past them on a picture of stars? MIght want to look into some methods for image editing.

Is it robot alien? or is it a ship? sometimes your art is really abstract. I had a tough time with the geometry in this one. I dont have a knack for abstract/cubistism styles. Anyways I would say that yet another painting in paint that could use a bit of shading. maybe try and used layers to create textures like glasse or something. Have you ever tried any 3d modelling you don't need any fancy tools a mouse and key board is all you need though it might be a bit more work then paint. Blender 3d is free and ther are plenty of video tutorials out there. Sorry if I go on rambling but this is for everyone as well, we are not limited to just 2d art...that give me an idea
