I’m publicly saying it; I am a firm believer that “aliens” exist. Maybe not the normal depiction of what aliens are portrayed as, but I really do think there is other life out there. This universe is way too big for our little planet to be the only ones who had this opportunity. I don’t really have too much of an idea of what their UFO (or transportation) would look like, but here is a quick and mini version of your typical UFO!
This mini UFO works up quickly and is worked in the continuous round. They are perfect for any loved ones in your life who love aliens (I actually have someone in mind whom i’m giving this to!) I can’t wait to see your colony of UFO’s!
