Since it's my birthday I wanted this drawing to be a little more special. I really love all there girls in Witch Hat so I couldn't draw just one I also tried toimic the shading style. I've actually been meaning to try and learn more from Manga shading and this one I finally did it though I could still improve a lot. I've been a fan of this series for a while now amd I'm so happy it's getting an amime I've watched the PV so many times now!

Why the hat matter

When you first reads witch hat atelier you may encounter an extra panel at the end of volume 2 of the manga showing you how to draw your own witch hat, and mentions two rules:

The cap must not have a brim able to conceal the face 

The ideal pointed cap uses a conical design that fully covers the top of the head

These two rules presented in a funny cute extra encapsulates the hypocrisy embedded in the pointed cap witches. The first rule presents an ideal of the witch showing themselves to the world as a trustworthy person through not hiding anything. This way of presenting oneself as trustworthy is embedded in the pointed cap witches culture as seen through the weight they put on having their magic to appear pretty and trustworthy in the eyes of the normal humans under the festival later in the story. But at the same time as the witches want to appear open and trustworthy their existence also is part performance. Pointed cap Witches are forced to hide how they do their magic and their uniforms are designed so they can draw their seals hidden beneath or behind their robes. This contrast is shown through the second rule where despite appearing to show the face the ideal witch hat must be one that hides most of the head, showing that the pointed caps nature is only surface level and starts to fall apart the second you start to think about it.

Meanwhile looking at the brimmed caps you see the opposite. Their hats are originally designed to hide themselves to oppose the pointed caps way of life, but despite this their hats show a lot more of them. For example look at Coustas’ and Ininia’s hats.

Both of their hats convey something extremely personal about them. For Coustas it’s his connection to flying and nature represented by the feathers on his cap meanwhile for Ininia it’s her strings that show her uncanny way of getting entangled with others. Their hats show a more honest witch and by opposing the pointed caps, they point out that they aren’t that. Despite this the brimmed caps brim also reveal the problems with their ideology. Despite them all showing themselves honestly to the world, their brims stop them from seeing the honesty and reality of the other witches in this group. This results in them not seeing eye to eye and therefor their idea of what a brimmed cap witch actually is wildly differs which results in an unorganized movement that while having an interesting idea gets lost in individuals cruel selfish way of executing is, as none of the others stop them lost in their own idea of what freedom is, never looking beyond their own brim.
