This is a Cody Appreciation Blog. We will have many wonderful things here, like Cody. And some other people. (Not on purpose)
ABOUT ME
I'm a Star Wars fan with a love for the Clone Wars era. Of all the characters, Cody is by far my favorite.
THE BASICS
This blog is solely dedicated to Commander Cody.
Any other characters being featured are not the focus when I reblog posts with them included. This is not due to dislike of these characters at all.
This is because it is incredibly difficult to locate art solely featuring Cody. However, I like a lot of the art styles featured in ship art and character group art enough to want to include them, so they'll be appropriately tagged.
(All tags and their corresponding meanings can be viewed at the bottom of this post.)
QNA
What kind of things will you reblog/post?
A ton of things featuring Cody, but mostly art and incorrect quotes. I probably won't reblog headcanons except those that are my own or ones from asks that I find interesting.
How do you feel about fanon clone culture?
I like a lot of it. Like a lot. But I think there's something to be said about coming up with your own interpretations outside of fanon/canon and it's hard to find those interpretations.
Do you like any Cody ships?
Codywan is probably my favorite! It's also a lot of people's favorites, so that makes it even more difficult to find art solely featuring Cody. I also like a few other niche Cody ships that require bending the laws of physics to make them work. No, I will not elaborate.
Do you like any other characters or ships?
I'm not interested in discussing non-Cody-related things on this blog. If I make a blog not featuring Cody I'll add a link, but otherwise I won't talk about it here.

gave them impractical but very pretty embellishments hehe
additional notes below the cut:
CODY: I was not expecting Cody to end up looking like a paladin, but it suits him. Ironically, the more I designed him, the more I ended up appreciating his actual design. Something about how he deliberately does not wear any major embellishments reflects his personality as competent and straightforward. He doesn't need any embellishments or fancy maneuvers to command respect, his work speaks for itself.
Also gave Cody a Big Gun (TM) because it looks way cooler than the teeny blaster he usually uses. This is the very first time I've ever had to research firearms for my art because some gun nerd worked on the series and now every single damn blaster is an actual known model and design rather than just being a generic long black rectangle.
WOLFFE: Self-explanatory
FOX: Really struggled with Fox. I love his default design because it already has very little white and I didn't want to hide his fancy pattern. I was originally going to go for a kitsune approach but I was struggling to give his helmet a fox pattern, especially since I didn't want to remove his visor (Wolffe's designers really popped off with his helmet, idk how they managed to fit the wolf design on it).
Ended up giving him the fox pelt shrug, cape, and tassels because I imagine that the Coruscant Guard is extremely public facing, especially in the Senate, so a certain level of decorum and dressiness is expected of them, kind of like the King's Guard at Buckingham Palace.
Shout out to Hot Toys, whose action figures are so beautifully designed I could actually use them as refs for art. Double shout out to them for making every single clone, including the Bad Batch, actually look like Temuera Morrison or derivative of him.
((( I'm sorry TCW but you cannot convince me that the 2008 clone models you made and then got stuck with look anything like Temuera Morrison. ))))
