I really like how you rendered the night sky and had it blend into the shadows in the foreground. Very well done.

On another note, I -just- watched this special about star constellations on TV. It explained about how the zodiacs aren't in the same order they were when they were 'assigned' their days in the calender and that there is a 13th one called the Serpent Bearer. Very interesting stuff. ^^

Awesome, wonder what temperment the serpent bearer would have. Probably cautious.
:iconcrimsonrage:
I'm not sure.

Ophiuchus is what the serpent bearer's name it. But sometime he's called Aesculapius (roman god of medical science). With the research I'm doing on it, so far I've found one theory of Ophiuchus being a representation of Mercury. He holds a staff with a single snake wrapped around it and one his arms(?). I'm not sure about the bit about the arm...

He also spends 16 days between November and December, while Scorpio only spends 9... So all those Scorpios may not be really Scorpios... o__o
