I feel like it's not praised enough how they made Rhamphomon, a rhamphorhynchus based digimon, evolve into Azhdarmon, an azhdarchid pterosaur based digimon
They had a pterosaur hailing from the earlier Late Jurassic period evolve into a pterosaur based on a family of pterosaurs belonging to the later Late Cretaceous period
My paleo nerd self is very much enjoying this attention to detail
I learned port from starboard from the song Barges:
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges’ flickering light.
Silently flows the river to the sea,
And the barges too go silently.
Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue,
Barges, have you treasures in hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges’ flickering light,
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red,
You can see them flickering far ahead.
Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue,
Barges, have you treasures in hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
Now that I've noticed I can't un-notice that every clone wars episode is Dave Filoni try to keep the most competent characters (Mace Windu, Commander Fox, Yoda, Commander Cody, Plo koon) as far away as he can from both each other and the plot so that they don't just solve it themselves
I've also listed each clone's primary media. These may not be the *only* things they appear in, but they're what I consider to be their main source material! These include but are not limited to live action films, the Clone Wars, the Bad Batch, and various Legends.
Some additional notes, as well as final voting results beneath cut!
Additional notes:
While all but 2 of these boys are technically official, some caveats:
Boys who never show their faces in official media, whose faces are my original designs:
Fordo＊
Blackout
Boss
Fixer
Sev
Scorch
Longshot
Appo
Thorn
Thire＊
These are boys who are technically canon/Legends, but you won't see them looking like this in their respective official media! How they're depicted here are my own designs + headcanons.
＊Fordo and Thire technically have "official" faces; Fordo we see the back of his head in the 2003 CW, and he has an action figure. Thire we see at the very beginning of TCW show. In Fordo's case, i decided these references are so obscure/brief and he deserves a cooler look to match his expanded role in my own works, so I gave it to him. Thire, I figured it's been so long since the beginning of TCW till his role in ROTS as a Shock Trooper Commander, he can also get a different look.
Boys who have faces, but I reinterpreted very generously:
Wooley
Glitch
Both of these boys have their faces shown in their respective listed comics, BUT Wooley's hair crest looks so pointy and sharp it could stab and hold up his bucket, forget fitting it inside, and Glitch...hmmm. I made both of their hair look more in line with how Boba/young Jango's longer hair looks, aka curlier, softer, while still maintaining the rough shape of how they're depicted.
OC boys who are entirely original
Ashe
Stabber
'Nuff said! ^ ^;
Next, VOTING RESULTS!
The boys who made it into this art were chosen via votes across my various social media (Tumblr, Twitter, Insta, Patreon), collected from my WIPs. Here's the final Tumblr one if u want to check out the process!
Now, the cumulative results:
I tallied up a total of 511 votes, though a number of those are from the same people voting for a ton of clones. There's a chance I may have missed/double counted a few, but I did my best to keep on top of it!
Disclaimer that this should NOT be taken as a general clones popularity poll, because votes are likely affected by the fact that I was drawing and posting boys before voting ended. If someone was drawn/posted in an earlier round, then there's no reason to keep voting for them since everyone can see that they're already included.
This is why there are no votes for Jango/Boba/Omega; I started with them, so everyone knew they were already included from the start! I also got quite a few folks telling me that there's no point voting for Cody because they know I'm going to include him anyway and...that's fair ^ ^;;; (and he was included in Round 2)
The boys also weren't chosen solely by votes; I threw in Blackout and Longshot despite them having no votes but my own, just because they fit in well with the groups I had planned. I gave myself final say, artist privilege eyy!
STILL, I find these results super interesting, and I hope you do too! I wasn't expecting Wrecker to get the most votes out of the Batch, I was surprised that not a lot of Commanders got many votes, and I was shocked that my OCs did get a ton of votes (thank you!! ;A; )! If I could have added 2 more clones, based on these votes, they probably would have been Slick and Morbs (OC). Maybe next time!
Lemme know if you have any thoughts, because yeah, I just found this super neat!
