Just felt like I would attempt to draw the bi-generation just cause of the colors. This was really just me trying about like a thousand different ways to color. I don’t necessarily think it’s my best work but you know it was fun lol. 1st is the final product and the 2nd is the time lapse. Slightly lost my mind half way through. I used procreate for this
exams are upcoming and i have never been less prepared meanwhile i could write an extensive essay on the portrayal of the hero archetype in doctor who. i use my time well
Some records say a Time Lord's collarbones are also very sensitive... Does it have to do with the nerve endings?
The Gallifreyan Shoulder Nerve Cluster
Only one collarbone is particularly sensitive - the left one, directly due to a bundle of nerves located in that area.
🤔 Where Is It?
Here's a simple test you can do sitting right there: Run your fingers just under your left collarbone, pressing lightly. Just before you reach your shoulder, you should feel a slight dip. This is where a nerve ganglion is located in a Time Lord.
⚡ The Nerve Ganglion
This nerve cluster is one of several distributed throughout the Gallifreyan body (another is in the brain, and another between the hearts). Here's why this particular ganglion under the left collarbone is so significant:
Physical Vulnerability: Because this ganglion is close to the collarbone, even a slight impact in this area can trigger intense pain, spasms, or breathlessness.
Incapacitation: A forceful blow to this area will KO a Time Lord due to the sensitive nerve cluster's direct link to vital bodily functions. This makes it an effective point for instant incapacitation in combat or other high-risk situations.
Medical Risks: Given its high sensitivity, medical procedures near the left collarbone need real planning. The proximity to the nerve ganglion means that any procedure or accidental trauma could lead to severe pain or other unintended physiological effects, such as respiratory distress or damaging changes in hearts rate.
Peripheral Nervous System: Gallifreyans have a more extensive peripheral nervous system than humans, with more nerve endings that are highly sensitive. This increased sensitivity contributes to the intense reactions caused by the ganglion.
Lack Of Control: Gallifreyans usually have pretty good control over most of their systems, but they can't do much about this.
🏫 So ...
It's not both collar bones that are sensitive; it's just the one, but it's a goodun. Like a Dalek's eyestalk or a Sontaran's probic vent, it's essentially the Time Lord's weak spot. Take care out there.
Hope that helped! 😃

i think your userbox style is so interesting and pretty i wish i could see more like it
could i ask for a time lord (doctor who) and nebula themed userbox that says something like "aliens are real"? or maybe a gold angel-themed one that says "all angels are transsexual"? inspired by this awesome sticker you can find on teepublic) /nf

Ah thank you so much! :D I don't know anything about Doctor Who, so I hope it turned out alright <3 ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊
