Finished the second one in this series; I'll just follow the Gregorian calendar rather than the Roman one, since I started with Heavy. I decided to forego the obvious "jarate" joke here, since I wanted the series to be 'deco' and not 'humour'.
Sniper is Aquarius, the sign associated with Uranus, the sky king. It is the fixed Air sign. Before the planets beyond Saturn were discovered, Aquarius shared the planet Saturn with Capricorn, and many astrologists still follow the old system or consider the sign to be under the influence of both spheres.

Waterbearin's a good job mate. Challengin' work, out of doors, I guarantee you'll not go thirsty, cuz at the end of the day as long as there's someone left on the planet, they'll want a drink.

How did you determine that Sniper is an Aquarius?

Sniper seems to have a distant personality, but a fascination with other humans- he's a misanthropic loner who spends all of his time watching others. Β He has a sanguine nature and a sharp tongue, but isn't animated and witty like the Spy (Gemini) is. Β
And Aquarius is represented by Ganymede, the cup-bearer, so I thought it was a good 'Jarate' joke.

Yeah, this was one of the first ones I saw. After I asked that, I saw your explanation of Sniper on the other zodiacs people thought should have been Sniper. (though admittedly you still barely touched upon that in the description, unlike several of the other zodiacs)
Also I think it could have still been subtle enough if you'd made the vase into a jar, even if you left it just water coming out.

my sign + fav class
Still he acts more like Capricorn.

Capricorn is more ambitious and a better leader. Sniper is downright misanthropic.

Capricorn? A leader? Hell no.

Jarate. Uranus. How am I supposed to act like an adult here?!
But seriously though, this right here makes me wish I was Aquarius insead of Pisces. I have nothing against Medic (3rd favourite character), but nobody can top this lad.
I really like how you drew the water, not too complicated but not just a blue blob either. But then again, I never expected anything less from you

Thanks! I wanted the water to have a stylized look, and I was happy with how it turned out.
Aquarius is my favorite sign of the Zodiac, even though I'm a Pisces....

I'm an Aquarius, so I'm really happy you drew the Sniper as one.
Does this make me able to use Jarate O_O ? Only time (and my victims ) will tell.
I absolutely adore your drawing style BTW

I believe you need to take "Saxton Hale's Jarate Pills" in order to make Jarate...
Sold at several fine retailers!

Thank you!
And... if you end up in court, you'd better not blame me. >_>

I wish i was aquarius even more. Sniper is awesome.

Aw yeah, my favorite class as my zodiac sign!

I don't play sniper much. VERY rare that I do but still, this is pretty cool~
My starsign is a sniper, huh? Welp... better get that snipin rifle dusted off and start filling those jars!

Even though the imagery involves an archer, Sagittarius is a forthright, risk-taking individual with a bad sense of direction. Sniper is aloof and calculating, so he really doesn't have a Sagittarian personality. Besides, Aquarius is the water-bearer, and Sniper is even better known for carrying around jars of his own pee than for his ability to use a bow.

"Thanks for holdin still for a picture, Aquarius!"

You make me very curious. Will there be any chance that Scorpio will be in here? I am in love with your series, this is a very good idea. Keep up with great work.

I want to do all zodiacal signs, so yes, there should be a Scorpio.

This makes me very curious of who will possess the sign. I can't wait! :3

I'm really loving this series. Are you matching each character to a star sign based on personality?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes. A few were harder to place than others, but I feel relatively confident with my choices.

I guess that means Scout isn't a Virgin then
π: 0 β©: 1
Naw, Scout's Aries. And he probably is still a virgin.

Wow, I like this a lot. I tend to peg him as an Air Sign because Arrows= air for me, and it certainly fits his "loner" stereotype. Very, very nice!

Sniper is aloof and he spends a lot of time watching and studying other people from a high place, so it seemed suitable to me.

I say nuts to Ophinuchus. Maybe I'll do one in a few centuries once it's been integrated into the astrological canon, I'll think of doing one. As for the other three signs, I decided to use the three supporting characters who've appeared in game and in the promotional comics- Saxton Hale, Ms. Pauling and the Administrator. They round things out nicely.

there are twelve star signs, though, and only nine classes :< HOW WILL SUCH A FEAT BE ACHIEVED?

There are also three repeating supporting characters who've appeared in-game and in promo material.
