In Memoriam

I want you troopers to remember—we're shoulder-to-shoulder on those front lines. Brothers! And sometimes we may quarrel, but no matter what, we are united. Rule one: we fight together. --Clone ARC Commander Colt (CC-?), Rancor Battalion

Soldiers by Otherwise

It's time to strap our boots on This is a perfect day to die Wipe the blood out of our eyes In this life there's no surrender There's nothing left for us to do Find the strength to see this through

We are the ones who will never be broken With our final breath We'll fight to the death We are soldiers, we are soldiers

We are soldiers

I stand here right beside you Tonight, we're fighting for our lives Let me hear your battle cry Your battle cry

We are the ones who will never be broken With our final breath We'll fight to the death We are soldiers, we are soldiers

We stand shoulder to shoulder (x3) You can't erase us, you'll just have to face us!

We stand shoulder to shoulder(x3) You can't erase us, you'll just have to face us!

We are the ones who will never be broken With our final breath We'll fight to the death We are soldiers, we are soldiers We are the ones who will not go unspoken No, we will not sleep We are not sheep We are soldiers, we are soldiers

The ground was freezing but his body wasn’t responding. It didn’t matter how much Crosshair was pushing him, he could walk no more.

This was it–the end, he thought as his knees gave way and he dropped to the floor. He heard Crosshair pleading with the natborn, didn’t even give the man the courtesy of thinking of him as an officer; much good it had done him. There were, no had been, better men than he, and Mayday had served with them all his life and he was serving with the last one now. Brothers to the end. Calling him an officer was an insult to them.

They were all gone now.

Crosshair’s voice was getting quieter. He could barely hear him now.

Was that blaster fire?

He didn’t care anymore.

He closed his eyes.

There was someone singing, no words, just a tune.

Clan Vau.

Or at least Delta Squad (and Mird). It’s a shame we don’t know more about Vau's other squads.

Extra stuff under the cut.

I wanted to make a rough drawing for May the 4th, but I just can't seem to draw armor in a simple way. So of course, I'm late this year again.

I started with a rough style for Sev and ended up with a cleaner one for Boss. In the end, I had to rework the characters several times so they would all look consistent.

I used Magic Poser Web to make the reference for the whole drawing. I initially planned a more classic back view of the characters, but while experimenting with the tool, I ended up liking the top view better.

For Mird, I used this nice walking dog 3D model to help with the anatomy (along with some Shar Pei references). I reused my previous design I made for it, but this time I fixed the legs so it has four back legs instead of four front ones. I tried several poses for the front leg and ended up choosing the one that felt the most dynamic. I'm pretty proud of the result.
