[The royal family of the Antarctic Empire as pictured above, left to right: General Technoblade, the heir apparent Wilbur Soot-Craft, the young Prince Theseus, and his majesty Emperor Philza Craft.]
After months of working on this on and off, I have finished this piece. Since this has taken up so much of my life, I'll put my ranting and extra details under the cut.
So, references. Phil is mostly based on this portrait of King George VI, little details I added were crows on the chain around his shoulders and the emblem of the hardcore heart. He was originally supposed to have a crown, but it just didn't feel like Philza without the bucket hat :)
Meanwhile, Tommy is based on King Henry VIII. This is a jump back in time periods, but I didn't want all four of them to be in the same sort of outfits. Compared to the other SBI members, Tommy's only jewelry is emerald earrings and necklace. He also has suns on his crown because... sunshine
Wilbur is based on Charles I, another leap back in time periods haha. I struggled the most coming up with his outfit, but I liked the looser look on him. And he has a cape :D he matches with Phil since he's the heir apparent.
Techno, the outlier, is based on this painting of a soldier. I picked this reference for the sole reason that I liked the uniform lol. In this AU Techno was the heir to the throne before he passed on the right to Wilbur and chose to lead the Antarctic army. A detail I lm fond of is that on the scabbard of his sword you can see Ariadne with a ball of thread leading into a labyrinth. Because, y'know, Theseus :D
In the end, I'm not at all knowledgeable about historical clothing or who would wear what, I mostly chose things for The Aesthetic lol, but hopefully the time and effort put into this piece is apparent : )
