Zodiac sheep!

[jerico_cacaw]

I did a zodiac set using the symbols, will try later the other way (lion, ram, bull), as soon as I figure out how to represent a sheep as virgin, or waterbearer, or scales ... o.O'

Anyway. I tried this three times, and I think the second version is my favorite. The first one is my attempt to do some paper sheep, but it was a source of much frustration. Therefore, second set, with the cartoonish look my basic icons have -- and then the third set, their pastel version. I used red/pink coloring for the Fire signs, brown/orange for the Earth ones, blue for Air and green for Water. If somebody wants a different coloring (or no coloring at all) feel free to ask.

Virgo's three versions follow, the others can be found behind the cut. They are in inverse alphabetical order because PhotoBucket is being an idiot. As always, original base by helens78, icons by jerico_cacaw. Shareable, no credit needed.

Virgo


Taurus


Scorpio


Sagittarius


Pisces


Libra


Leo


Gemini


Capricorn


Cancer


Aries


Aquarius


ETA: I didn't particularly like this version of Libra (my sign), and am looking for a more simple version of it. If any of you would like a different version of your sign, feel free to point me in the direction of the one you'd prefer.

Oh, pretty! I won't grab one, but only because I'm a Gemini and it's hard to find a Gemini symbol that doesn't just end up looking like a roman numeral 2. Neat neat neat.

[jerico_cacaw]

Do you have a sample of how a Gemini symbol won't look like a II, or could you describe it? The only other I've found is this.

[aedifica]

No, I have no idea how to have something that looks like a Gemini symbol that doesn't look like a II. Though what you posted in that comment, with the curvy top and bottom lines, comes closer than anything else I've seen!

very good! i like the second set too.

BTW took the second one in the other gemini ones you posted. will credit.

Oh wow!

I really love the "paper" Virgo sheep! Thank you so much for doing this project!

[saavikam77]

These are fantastic! I love how the Sag sheep (my sign) looks like they're holding the symbol. XD Naturally, I snagged the third one and will credit. :D

[groovekittie]

Woo! Snagged the 3rd Gemini icon! Thanks! :D

[veridienne]

Snagged the middle Aquarius icon. Left credit for it too.

dumb-ish question

[taodog]

Are the different color schemes coordinated by which element the sign is associated with? Or was it just random?

Re: dumb-ish question

[jerico_cacaw]

Yes they are. The ones in red/pink are the Fire signs, the ones in brown/orange are the Earth signs, the ones in blue are the Air signs, and the green ones are the Water signs (I know the last one is not typical {even if the Caribbean sea next to where I live is a very beautiful Emerald}, which is why I offered to do them in other colors).

These are cute! Snagged the Capricorn one with credit.
