    ears
    3. The far left U and the far right U are closed off on the top of
    Arlo's head
    4. two 1/4 circles are added at the bottoms of the U's for Arlo's
    shoulders
    5. Arlo's nose is added at the bottom of the circle
    6. zig zag lines are applied to all lines around Arlo to make him
