#hp's deca shite

(my)Theta's design, and how it connects to the show: a breakdown in sections.

Section one: Clothing

Poncho, mandarin/grandad collar shirt, cargo pants, socks—theta's most iconic outfit, characterised by his poncho. well suited for walking in the mountainous estates of his family.

Cricket jumper, plain white mid-length sleeve top, cargo pants, socks—worn rarely. theta does not know what a cricket jumper is, but enjoys owning a genuine human artefact.

Dress shirt w/ loose cravat tied around collar, chequered trousers w/braces, socks—theta's second most iconic outfit. he'd wear a waistcoat if it wasn't already too warm for the drylands* during daytime.

*a note on the drylands: it is an arid desert in my fic (I am aware this is contradicted in some canon sources). this means that though it is hot during the day, it cools to below zero during the night. while outside in the drylands, theta usually wears outfit 1 minus the poncho during day, donning the knitwear during night hours for warmth.

Variations:

Section two: Headwear/Eyewear*

as a note: this is to signify his getting closer to being the doctor rather than just theta

*it only occurred to me after making all the pictures that I had put most of his accessories in with the clothing section, and so could not make a section named 'accessories'. it's a bit clumsy.

Section three: Identifying features

Illustration:

Painting:

*I would argue that this is why many of my paintings of him are inconsistent, as people can look drastically different in photos from one setting to the other, but also I'm just bad at capturing likenesses. Pick your excuse for me, I guess.

Section four: Colour palette

*when I say the desert, I refer to the drylands.

To conclude:

If you have read all of this, thank you! In total, the process of writing this and drawing all of the images used amounts to about 15 hours. That's not to say I didn't enjoy the process, but it was certainly a labour of love—I am glad that it's over with. I tend to keep a lot of my headcanons very private, so if nobody else gets anything out of this, I will have a visual guide of my thought process to look back on and reference.
