Capricornus Aljeti of Saturnby ^Katmomma

Digital Art / Drawings / Animals

Inspired from the Greek Celestial Astrology, Capricornus the Water Goat.
Though putting my own spin on Capricorn, he is Capricornus Aljeti. (Aljeti is the name of a star in the actual constellation)
Ruled by the Planet Saturn, Capricorn is the Dominant Earth Sign.

Now if you have ever talked to a person born in Capricorn, you’ll begin to notice their stubborn nature. Capricorns are also generally known to be headstrong- never satisfied with the mountain they are on. – Always climbing higher to success. Not all people born in Capricorn will exhibit these features for everyone is influenced by other signs as well.

Astrological Elements
Earth: Capricorn, Virgo, Tauros
Fire: Aires, Leo, Sagittarius
Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pieces
Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius

Other Notable Constellations:
I may do some of these in the future
Orion
Ursa Major and Ursa Minor
Canis Major and Canis Minor
Cygnus (already did this one)
Pegasus
Andromeda
Cassiopeia

Orignal Mythological Creatures
Terra Delta (Ruled By Earth)
Capricornus Aljeti (Ruled by Saturn)

About This Piece
This was originally done in Micron Pen- the line art I showed you earlier was colored in Corel. I figured Prismacolors would do this Goat more justice.
NO GRAY WAS USED…. Yep that’s right. Just Blue, Green, Purple, Yellow, and Orange.

Sorry I haven’t been able to comment—I’ve been super busy! But I will try my hardest to get back to you!

Probably my favourite sign. I'm not sure why though.

I happen to be a Capricorn, and I've always loved the Capricornus. This is an absolutely beautiful image of it. ^^ Great job!

Waaw, me loves goats

It's so beautiful... the hair looks stunning! It seems to be smooth and fluffy^^
And again the colouring... Did it take very long? You wrote you didn't use grey, and the combined colours make a greyish effect, though. It's awesome!
Super!
