The last island is as follows: Imagine the big continent from earlier was cut off and there was a piece of it that was connected but not quite able to be seen because it was connected lower down. Hold your right hand in front of you as a fist with your palm facing away from you so that you can see your knuckles and the first segment of your fingers. Ignore your thumb. Stick up your ring and pinky finger while still keeping them curled. This is the rough shape of this landmass. It is very short. It's highest y-value is less then the top of the first ... island. The size of the big continent plus this addition almost takes you to the end of the screen. If you were to add the first dot island to the end of this last island, you would reach the end of the screen. Apologies. Size comparison between Australia island and right-most island? With your hand comparison, do you mean that to represent bumps at the top of the island?

The left hand of the silly friend is as follows:
It is a crudely drawn circle of color #FFD800. Slightly wider than it is tall but I doubt that will matter. Its radius is approximately equal to the diameter of the biggest loopdeloop on the left arm.
It has 10 squiggles coming out of it. The first five are spaced like _\|/_. From left to right: lowercase zeta, backwards nazi lightning bolt, music rest, backwards S, forwards S.
The bottom five are //|\\, with the rightmost one being drawn on top of the arm.
From left to right: j without a dot hanging down, backwards L with a curved long part, s, s, s but the top curve being covered up by the arm.

Righmost island is tiny. Rightmost island width equals three times comma island width. Australia is huge, takes up all the space between ... islands and rightmost island.
The hand analogy describes the shape of Rightmost island. You can only see the top of it because the rest is off the bottom of the screen.

Its radius is approximately equal to the diameter of the biggest loopdeloop on the left arm. It has 10 squiggles coming out of it. The first five are spaced like _\|/_.

I forgot something important about the left hand.
It's not correctly connected to the left arm. The leftmost loopdeloop as well as the curve part are actually in front of the sun. The center of the sun is somewhere around the base of the curve up part.

The right arm of the silly friend is as follows:
It goes upwards to the right at slightly less than a 45 degree angle. It stems from the exact same y-location as the left arm. It also has 3 loopdeloops. Here is a map of where the loopdeloops are:

This arm ends at the same Y-value of the bottom of the right prong of the droopy pickaxe.

The right hand of the silly friend is as follows (please end my silly suffering)
Another sun. Same yellow fill color. Wider then it is tall. The diameter from top to bottom of the right hand is the radius from top to center of the left hand, so it's considerably smaller.
It has 8 squiggles coming out of it. They are drawn in black outline and not yellow.
The top four squiggles are like _\|/. Their shapes are from left to right: nazi lightning bolt, integral, s with a long top curve, s. The bottom four squiggles are like /||\. Their shapes from left to right:
the first one: tetris block (.:*) the second one is special: it goes down for a bit then goes wayyy off to the left and actually touches the edge of the third loopdeloop from the left. the third one: s the fourth one: lowercase zeta again. But this one is special too because it's not actually attached to anything. it has a slight gap between itself and the sun.
The height of the highest squiggly line on this sun just barely exceeds the highest point of the orange pickaxe friend. The line that exceeds that height boundry is the second line on the top (integral)

We are finally done drawing the silly friend.
A fish is being launched from the top of his pickaxe head. The fish is of color #0026FF. We know the fish is being launched because two short \\ lines indicate that he is flying. The fish is sad, he has a single eye and a sad mouth. It's a side profile.
To draw the fish, draw a keyhole, then rotate that keyhole the same 70-75 degrees that the silly friend is so it looks like the silly friend has just shot the fish in the direction he's facing. then draw the eye which is just a dot and the mouth which is a sad mouth.
The fish is small, about the size of as the right hand of the silly friend. If the length of the fish from head to tail was one fish unit, there is one fish unit of space between the tail of the fish and the head of the silly friend. Then draw two lines \\ behind the fish to show that he was launched. These lines are short. They are about the length of the individual mouth segments in the .^. mouth.

We will now draw the giant crab head attacking from the top left corner.
A giant crab head thing (think zoidberg) is emerging diagonally downwards from the top left corner. It is all one connected filled shape. It is colored #FF0000. It is partially offscreen just like the earth is because it's really big. It has two giant fangs like a crab claw, then 5 little smaller tentacles (spikes) between those claws like a scary tentacle mouth.
It also has two eyes with eyelashes. They are not dot eyes like everybody else has had so far, they are big long <=*=> eyes with whites (colored white obvs), eyelashes and a pupil (no iris)
Its left claw is very big. It terms of X-axis, it swoops down from just offscreen to past the sun of the left hand. It is wider then the stem of the silly friend. In terms of Y-axis, it swoops down to below the entire .^. face of the silly friend by a small margin.
Then it goes back up and there are those five smaller tentacles that form the mouth. They are all about the same length. From left to right, they curve towards the: right, left, left, right, right. The fourth one has a fatter base than all the rest.
The right claw is very big but not as big. It's edge serves as the rightmost edge of the giant crab head. In terms of X-axis, it ends at about the same X-axis as the silly friend. In terms of Y-axis, it swoops as low as the blue fish.
Next post describes the eyes.

The eyes of the giant crab head are as follows.
They are obling and wide like real eyes. They have eyelashes. The whites of the eyes are white, the pupils are oblong in a similar shape to the eyes, not like round pupils. The pupils are centered in the eyes. The eyes are not angry, nor do they convey any emotion but a blank stare.
The left eye goes from X-axis (left edge of the leftmost squiggle of the left hand) -> (middle of the left hand), and for y-axis just make it look like a long almost squinty eye. Make the shape, color it in white, then draw a pupil of the same shape in the center of the eye. The pupil is black. The eye has 6 eyelashes on top. They all curve towards the left and are evenly distributed among the top of the eye.
The right eye is

Only one thing remains left to draw and it is the purple star.
The purple star is #B200FF. He lives in the top right portion of the image. He is a 5-pointed star. He has very chubby rounded edges. His height is comparable to the height of the small mouth tentacles of the giant crab head. His width is about equal to his height. He is kind of skewed like this /. Meaning his top point is more to the right. His top point is fat. His left point is fat. His right point is long in terms of y-axis but not long in terms of x-axis.
Relax your jaw and let your mouth hang open, then stare distantly into space and let your eyes go a little bit crossed. This is the expression that the purple star has. His eyes are simple dots. The inside of his mouth is color #FF00DC, it needs to be a filled shape with an outline.

Also update on my end for planning purposes:
As I go through the drawing, I naturally come up with problems that highlight issues with earlier steps of the drawing. This is expected!
My plan will be to treat this as a first draft before going through the drawing again with greater accuracy. I am not very concerned about time here as it seems very unlikely that two pairs will tie for the greatest accuracy. There are too many details/spacing/etc. that I don't think people are going to be able to get 100% right.

It submitted too early. Continuing on the first paragraph:
His left leg is quite small compared to the other points. His right leg is like a smaller version of his left point. I don't think the proportions of the limbs actually batter but here they are anyways.

My steps are very self-referential (perhaps by design to catch my blind spots?) so hopefully that helps
basically every step refers to the previous step in some way

Your descriptions have been excellent. I just know that there are quite a few errors in my drawing at the moment Once you have finished describing everything I will ask a few clarifying questions. But I will not be able to submit before you go to sleep tonight.

------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Quicknotes 1 ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ its a big silly ms paint style image full of squiggly lines and shapes with funny faces. Every border between things is BLACK and a bit thick, so crank your brush size up a few notches just by default. You can start by filling the background color with #0094FF, that's the color of the sky. Even though the sky is blue, it's a view from space. You can see a part of the earth. The earth is crudely drawn and is not a perfect circle. To draw the curvature of the earth using your bold black brush, imagine the top half of a circle resting on the bottom of the page. Then make it so that the left side of the half circle is longer then the right because it's crudely drawn. The height of the skewed half circle goes from the bottom of the screen to about 15% of the total height at it's peak. Imagine your 800x800 square was cut from the top left corner of a sheet of lined paper. Imagine where the margin would be. That is the left edge of the half circle. The right edge is slightly offscreen. Use the fill bucket on your newly drawn earth with color #0026FF. This is the water. We will be drawing continents and islands next. Each continent has a black bold cartoony border the same size as the border of the earth. #007F46 is the color of the land on the continents. Leave a small margin of water on the left side of the earth. From left to right, draw three small islands like ... but they go slightly diagonally up as you go to the right. The top of the first island is level with the bottom of the second island. Both the first and second islands are small and their shape is negligible, but they're not perfect circles. Just make em look islandy. The third island is like if the first two tiny islands merged together then sprouted a little tail like a comma. (,) The tail of the comma goes down to about the midpoint of the height of the second island, and then the head of the comma goes up a little more in uniform with the other islands. The total height of the third island is about equal to the sum of the height of the previous two islands. The three islands themselves should not go further than about the 1/3 mark across the surface of the earth. Next in the middle of the earth there's a big continent. It starts from offscreen (ie. the bottom of the screen). It never touches the top of the earth. None of the islands do. It looks a tiny bit like a very smoothed out version of the top of Australia, but if someone took the left edge of australia and ripped it like a sheet of paper and a jagged edge formed. If you look at the top of australia on a map, you will see a small bump, a bigger bump, a dip, then a big spike, then a decrease off to the right. Switch the order of the small bump and the bigger bump, and make the dip/spike much smaller, then have it taper off of the screen. This would mean that the dip appears immediately after the small bump. From left to right: big bump, small bump, right into dip, then spike, then fall off the screen. just a bit above the rising edge (not the peak) of the small bump is a little dot island. It is smaller than any island you've already drawn. The last island is as follows: Imagine the big continent from earlier was cut off and there was a piece of it that was connected but not quite able to be seen because it was connected lower down. Hold your right hand in front of you as a fist with your palm facing away from you so that you can see your knuckles and the first segment of your fingers. Ignore your thumb. Stick up your ring and pinky finger while still keeping them curled. This is the rough shape of this landmass. It is very short. It's highest y-value is less then the top of the first ... island. The size of the big continent plus this addition almost takes you to the end of the screen. If you were to add the first dot island to the end of this last island, you would reach the end of the screen. A very silly creature is living on top of the earth. Imagine like a mushroom cloud, but instead of a mushroom, it's a pickaxe, he has a silly smile, and he is leaning towards the left. We will now be drawing this creature. Our silly friend is also very tall, so the combined height of him plus the earth is about half of the entire image. He is coloured in as #FF6A00. His base is more or less centered on top of the earth, but slightly to the left. I mentioned he is a mushroom cloud shape (on the bottom), so just like a mushroom cloud he has two upwards arches like a tree that grow up into a stem. Imagine he's made of some fungus-y stretchy fleshy material. Because he's leaning towards the left, his upwards arch on the left is fatter and his upwards arch on the right is narrower. imagine a protractor. If 90 degrees is straight up, our silly friend is leaning at about 70 to 75 degrees. For a his pickaxe head, he has a very narrow and droopy head for a pickaxe. You might think of a droopy palm tree at sunset. His left pickaxe prong is very droopy and floppy so it goes sharply down wards to about the halfway point of his body. But his right pickaxe prong is more solid, and only droops down to the 1/4 way point of his body. It also doesn't droop sharply down, it looks much more like a normal pickaxe prong. At the point where all the prongs and the stem meet at the head, there is a little .^. face. The x-position of the eyes is about where the the lines coming up to draw the stem are. The position of the mouth is centered between the eyes. Our silly orange friend has two silly arms. His arms do not have any color, they are just bold and black stick arms. The same color and width that all the outlines are. On the end of his silly arms are two hands which are actually just suns of color #FFD800. The suns have many sqiggly lines coming out of them. The squiggly lines are not yellow, they are black just like all the outlines. I will now describe each of these things in painstaking detail. The left silly arm protrudes from near the base of our silly orange friend. Right around the inflection point where the curve goes from going mostly horizontal to mostly vertical. His arm has three silly loop-de-loops in it. Aside from those three loop de loops, it goes mostly in a straight line to the left and slightly upwards. In terms of X-axis alignment, the leftmost loop-de-loop is just fully to the left of the leftmost ... island. This is a text rendition of his arm: u_o__o__O____ where O and o are bigger/smaller loop-de-loops, and u is because it ends at an upwards twirl about the same height as the previous loopdeloop. So ignore the right half of the u. Just make it curve to point up. The left hand of the silly friend is as follows: It is a crudely drawn circle of color #FFD800. Slightly wider than it is tall but I doubt that will matter. Its radius is approximately equal to the diameter of the biggest loopdeloop on the left arm. The left hand is actually not connected to the left arm. The leftmost loopdeloop as well as the curve part are actually in front of the sun. The center of the sun is somewhere around the base of the curve up part. It has 10 squiggles coming out of it. The first five are spaced like _\|/_. From left to right: lowercase zeta, backwards nazi lightning bolt, music rest, backwards S, forwards S. The bottom five are //|\\, with the rightmost one being drawn on top of the arm. From left to right: j without a dot hanging down, backwards L with a curved long part, s, s, s but the top curve being covered up by the arm. The right arm of the silly friend is as follows: It goes upwards to the right at slightly less than a 45 degree angle. It stems from the exact same y-location as the left arm. It also has 3 loopdeloops. Here is a map of where the loopdeloops are: BASE__o_o__o___HAND This arm ends at the same Y-value of the bottom of the right prong of the droopy pickaxe. The right hand of the silly friend is as follows (please end my silly suffering) Another sun. Same yellow fill color. Wider then it is tall. The diameter from top to bottom of the right hand is the radius from top to center of the left hand, so it's considerably smaller. It has 8 squiggles coming out of it. They are drawn in black outline and not yellow. The top four squiggles are like _\|/. Their shapes are from left to right: nazi lightning bolt, integral, s with a long top curve, s. The bottom four squiggles are like /||\. Their shapes from left to right: the first one: tetris block (.:*) the second one is special: it goes down for a bit then goes wayyy off to the left and actually touches the edge of the third loopdeloop from the left. the third one: s the fourth one: lowercase zeta again. But this one is special too because it's not actually attached to anything. it has a slight gap between itself and the sun. The height of the highest squiggly line on this sun just barely exceeds the highest point of the orange pickaxe friend. The line that exceeds that height boundry is the second line on the top (integral) We are finally done drawing the silly friend. A fish is being launched from the top of his pickaxe head.
