It Looked Better In My Head...

Name: CC-0143

Nickname: Hardwire

Rank: Clone Commander of the 952nd Relief Battalion

Synopsis: After being betrayed by his Jedi General and being left scarred, Hardwire made a bold request: a non-Jedi General. He’s incredibly loyal to his brothers, and insanely smart when it comes to technology/hacking. His biggest issue is while clever, things do go over his head a great deal—basically he’s not streetwise—leading to a lot of awkward moments in his life. Despite being an awkward Commander, he’s irreplaceable in the 952nd and a good brother.

My first OC I ever created for Star Wars, I had to draw him in color first. I will draw more of my OCs in time… stay tuned!

I wish you could see it in person! I’m so proud of the coloring I did on this piece and the photo does not do it justice 😭😭

I swear, I’m only getting into Marvel because I like the strong female characters (Wanda, Yelena, and Kate are my favorite so far) ❤️❤️

Did this awhile ago when I rewatched Arcane.

I love the animation and highly recommend watching it at least once for the story and art 💜💜

And… we’re back on the Haunted Mansion kick!

Here’s the one I did back in 2020.

I wanted to doodle some clones, but I didn’t want to do any canon clones, or my clones… 💜💜

Corn belongs to @muguathepapaya

Kess belongs to @sundownsquad

Avar belongs to @voidika

(I’m still figuring out shadow and light theory 🥲🥲)

[cariboudoodles]

Was having a slow day at work, so I decided to practice drawing some clone troopers on the back of discarded receipts. As a result, this sweetheart appeared!

@sundownsquad I absolutely love your boys, and couldn’t resist doodling my favorite one 💜💜

PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT YOUR ARC TROOPER OCS

SHOW ME A PICTURE

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM

[comm-caribou]

I got three ARCS!!!!!

Let’s start with ARC-4447, or better known as Mirage. He’s a klutz, trips on his own feet, walks into walls, and is in the med bay often… but has a great head of hair and he knows how to style it! He doesn’t share his secrets on how he does his hair or how he got the supplies to be able to do his hair so nicely almost everyday (most commonly it is 1950’s greaser style) and when it’s not done, it still looks good as curly, floppy mess. He’s charming, a little bit of a flirt, and shows his affection by constantly being in his brothers’ personal space and teasing them. Often can be found close by his best vod, Boomerang, who is a medic with all the jokes. While pretty laidback and easy to approach, he’s got a temper that is not easy to cool down once it’s been activated. Mostly it’s from the heat of battle, or feeling inadequate.

Next is ARC-5572, also known as Shadow. Originally from the 501st, he got transferred to the 952nd after a very obvious bond was formed between him and the other legion. He was a bit of an outcast, having a bit more ‘you jump, I jump’ attitude that even 501st wondered how this kid was alive. Then he met Mirage, and was starstruck. This really cool ARC was letting a rookie like him go with him on patrol and even giving him tips on his hair (“Mirage shared his secrets with me!” “…congratulations.”), and next thing he knew everyone was calling him Shadow. Yes, they were making fun of/teasing him but he didn’t care because he finally had a brother who liked having him around, and after months of being with the 952nd he was promoted and sent to ARC training. While upon first glance, he seems like he’d be Mirage’s copy, Shadow is graceful and rarely acts out of anger, he’s loyal and just happy to help.

Finally, ARC-1434. Lieutenant Fury. This man is a piece of work. His brothers are scared of him, he doesn’t know how to socialize, he only has like two friends, and is just tired and hungry. Fury got his name after punching a training sergeant in the face and being swept away by Commander Havoc to ARC training. He’s the outsider among the 952nd, not belonging to their Legion but also there because he’d have no one if Ace (pilot) and Grimm (medic) left him back on Kamino (A: “we have to take him with us.” G: “he doesn’t know how to make friends.” F: *grunts*). He’s very loyal and you can count on him when you’re in a tight situation, he doesn’t care if he gets shot as long as his brothers are safe. Mirage did not like him when they first started working together, and Fury ignoring Mirage’s distaste in him just made the one-sided rivalry worse until Fury is body slammed by all the trauma, and then Mirage eases up and befriends him. But what makes this serious, awkward, stoic doofus the best… he’s got a crush on the non-Jedi General. He’s very soft for Juliette and doesn’t know what to do about these feelings he has for her and why he wants to hold her hand so badly. If she gave him a kiss on the cheek for doing a good job, he cannot function.

(Here’s a sketch of my ARCs, and yes you have my full permission to draw them)

[cariboudoodles]

Figured I’d reblog this here too, going to force myself to draw more of my troops later

(Just realized I’ve been writing about them since 2016 and never properly drew them! How crazy is that?)

Got into Sailor Moon back in high school and fell in love with those outfits and powers, made me wish I was a magical girl

When in doubt of what to draw, there’s Princess Peach 👑💕

Finally got around to coloring these two in, still not sure how I feel about Bi-Han’s eyes.

I love Wanda, she’s my absolute favorite and the only reason I’m watch the Marvel Cinematic Universe now. Also I totally relate to making an alternate reality where everything is fine when I’m falling apart 🥲🥲
