Constellation illustration No. 5 - Canis Major, The Great Dog. Nice facts about this constellation - Canis Major contains Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, known as the 'dog star', which is part of the asterism known as the Winter Triangle in the Northern Hemisphere, or the Summer Triangle in the Southern.
This one is a little bit different to the other constellations in the series so far because instead of using blues and red like I usually do, I played around with more greens and yellows. I also used my parents dog Summer as reference (she's a little grey lurcher with grey/blue eyes). As always I would love to know what you guys think. :)
