Description Originally drawn back in 2008 and revamped for this year's Chinese New Year of the Sheep. The colours are inspired from the myth of the "Golden Fleece" at the start of "Jason & The Argonauts". I also made the eyes fiery and added fire to other parts of the body to represent the star sign's element. I think I managed to keep the "cheeky/charming face" from the original drawing?! I'll be getting some prints made of this for Majikkon 2015 in Huddersfield, UK.

Drawn in Sai Paint Tool, some textures and the background painted in Photoshop CS5.

I really love the golden fleece element as a lot of people forget that, in that the star sign has a deep link with the mythology. Love the smiling face to.

Now there's an artist I haven't seen in some time. How have you been?

I love the color scheme, the purples and golds work well together. I'm also digging the linework in the Ram's face. Fantastic job, dear. <3

Hello Roonifer!
I've been super busy making arts and crafts to sell at conventions and started a degree in Health Sciences.  How have you been?
Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it!
