What's In This Picture

In this detailed scene, a large flying saucer or UFO serves as the centerpiece, hovering high above a bustling metropolitan area. You will find a dense city skyline featuring several skyscrapers and tall buildings that reach toward the moon, stars, and drifting clouds. Below the city lights, a long bridge spans across the page, carrying cars, a bus, and even a train on its tracks. Near the bottom, the urban landscape transitions into suburban houses and a peaceful park filled with trees and glowing streetlights. Bright light beams shine down from the spacecraft, illuminating everything on the ground.

Coloring Tips

To create a mysterious atmosphere, try using deep blues and purples for the night sky, making the stars and moon pop with bright yellows. The flying saucer looks fantastic in metallic silver or bold neon colors like lime green to make it stand out from the city. For the city skyline, you can use a variety of grays for the buildings, but color the tiny windows with warm yellows to show people are still awake. Using a lighter, translucent shade for the light beams helps create a glowing effect that makes the craft look like it is really hovering. You might even use different shades of green for the trees in the park to contrast with the concrete bridge and skyscrapers.

Did You Know?

The term UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object. It was first used by the United States Air Force in 1952 to describe any object in the sky that could not be easily explained. While many people think of aliens, most UFO sightings turn out to be weather balloons, planes, or even bright planets like Venus.

Try This!

After you finish coloring the city, try drawing little alien faces looking out of the saucer windows. You could also grab a white crayon or gel pen to add extra stars or even some constellations in the dark parts of the sky. If you have some glitter glue, adding a bit to the light beams will make the alien visit look truly magical.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colors should I use for the UFO's light beams?
Light yellow, pale blue, or even a soft green work great! Use a light touch with your crayon or pencil to make it look like glowing light rather than a solid object.
How can I make the city look like it's nighttime?
Use dark colors for the sky and the sides of the buildings. By leaving the windows bright yellow or orange, you create the illusion of lights being on inside during the night.
Is this page good for markers?
Yes! Markers are excellent for the bold, metallic look of a flying saucer and for making the city lights look vibrant against a dark background.
For best results, print on standard letter size (8.5" x 11") paper using your printer's "Fit to Page" setting.
