I love the clone wars trio bc I see them all as different commentaries on the Jedi of the time.
Obi Wan is what the Jedi were.
Anakin is what the Jedi preached against.
Ahsoka is what the Jedi should aspire to be.
Obi Wan had the best of intentions: he wanted to save Anakin, to save Satine, to save Ahsoka. But in the end he failed due to Sith scheming. He was set up to fail, wether it be his dead master or the intergalactic war he was forced to fight in. And in the end Anakin did fall from the light, Satine was killed in Maul's quest for revenge, and Ahsoka walked away. He was a well-intentioned man with a good heart who was ultimately set up to fail by the Sith.
Anakin too wanted safety for his loved ones, but he took it to far. Instead of prioritizing those people, their wants and needs, he prioritized the way they made him felt. Instead of selfless love, he loved selfishly, which is exactlaly what the Jedi are against. They're not against love, they're against attachment. Anakin couldn't let go of Ahsoka: it corroded his faith in the Jedi, sowed seeds of resentment. He couldn't accept that Padme or Obi Wan didn't agree with his vision, because if they don't make him feel good, then they no longer love him. Anakin was a kind boy twisted by the Sith and his misguided attachment to others.
Ahsoka falls into a similar category as Obi Wan, except for one detial. She walked away. She recognized that the Jedi were unintentionally loosing themselves in war. And even through she was a spectacular warrior, a talented commander, she recognized that it wasn't supposed to be her job. She was able to let go of her attachment to Anakin and the 501st. She was a product of her masters and friends, of Obi Wan, Anakin, Padme, and all the others who influenced her growth. And even in the end, when her world fell, she still acted with compassion and understanding, which is exactly what a Jedi should be. Despite her discomfort with the twisted meaning of the title, Ahsoka embodied the fundamental traits of a Jedi. Not flawless, but an empathetic peacekeeper capable of embracing love and rejecting attachment.
Idk if I'm articulating it right, but the general idea is there.
AHSOKA | 1.07
I won't always be there to look out for you.
more togruta variants :) inspired by pachyrhinosaurus and triceratops respectively
A good looking part of a drawing I'm working on, and not just cause it's Fives
I had to finish the husbands together. I think these two I might be the least happy with, but I blame the fact that I've made their armour wayy too complicated. Of course that has been with the instructions of @keep-the-socks-on-karta
been quite busy but managed to doodle some more of this
A little doodle of them >:)) Quasar's friends are actually still padawans since he graduated so early
What is this? I actually drew my consepts for Quasar's friends from the jedi era :00
(Tw implied abuse)
Leyc's having a rough night :((
What is this? An AU where Zim survives instead of Quasar?
Nooo couldn't possibly be
I wouldn't torture you guys that much would I :)
Small daily doodle :)
This time with Zim and Thetra who is @constellation-skirmishes character
Still friends after the horrors, ain't that nice
I just got around to colouring this :ddd
What is this? Me redesining Quasar's outfit again?
Nooo couldn't possibly be
It's hard to be your own person when all people see in you is your father and his brothers
Nautolans my beloved, him especially, this art especially <3
mandatory kit fisto drawing because i love and adore him. muah my beautiful fish friend
A small moment of rest
Sorry I've been horribly burned out, but have them :D
new outfit and new saber style. HEMA inspired longsword type stuff :)
I found some old drawings of Quasar and Zim!!
God do they deserve better
I haven't watched the movie myself, but from a brief Wikipedia search and this meme template I've made my guess who lives and not are:
Quasar: manages to sence the difference in whom ever the thing is and takes it out
Leyc: doesn't look or sound sane enough for the thing to care and so survives
Zim: too cute to die
Bucket: Also too cute to die, also metal
Mi'var: Almost died, but girlbossed through it
Gurmenas: tries to kill the thing, fails and dies
Phoenix: tries to kill the thing, fails and dies
Gear: too busy trying to keep the peace between the others to get separated to die
Kelp: tried to fight the thing, died
Omen: too busy theorising to die
Dush: barricades himself in a corner and so survives
Anch: the thing is scared of him, don't mess with the medic
Wreck: was the first victim
Mutualssss ✨✨💗💗 another question for youuu
Which of your OCs WOULD and would NOT survive in a 1982 The Thing AU?
Mutuals in question:
@zealfruity @vix8n @starsidexiv @brainrotparsecsaway @lin-lll @furious-blueberry0 @jazaesis @vintagevibessketch @todays-fixation-is-bigbywolf
I was unsure if I should join @soularsss 's DTIYS since I haven't ever been apart of one. But Reave is just so pretty I had to join!!!
I hope if nothing else I did her justice
Okay a series of questions for you
1. Who was Quasar's master?
2. (Stemming from question 1) If Quasar's master was a canon star wars character, who would that master be?
3. Does Quasar have a bestie?
4. How did Quasar lose one of his legs?
5. Tell me more about that Togruta hunk and pretty pink Twi'lek 👉👈
6. Remember to hydrate and eat something bc all bad bitches do <3
Fuck yeah more >:D
You're single handedly keeping my asks alive. Also this is good because I have no idea what you guys would be interested in hearing
Warning this is long.
1/2. If I could pick a canon character I feel like Eeth Koth is a great fit for Quasar. Would also match with the times she Eeth Koth left the order and when Quasar was knighted. Koth has this weird thing about learning to handle pain (reason why Grevious failed at getting information out of him even under torture) and Quasar would probably benefit from the same skill.
I haven't made him an oc master since he isn't in the picture for too long (and Koth felt like a good match) but if I had to, I've always been picturing someone who kinda looks like Koth, so a mid tone Zabrak
3. Quasar unfortunately does not have a best friend, at least when he's older unless you count Bucket. BUT! During his jedi years he did have friends, probably on the best friend level. I do have some designs for them a mirlian and a togruta, but I've yet to redo them so to speak as Quasar's story changed a bit since I originally made them
4. >:))) oh you've hit a big plot point I've planned to make a comic about. Well, to not be overly spoilery and to keep it short: he lost it during the early days of the war when he was cooperating with some clone squad (not yet sure if it was a sub devision of Dead zone) before he became a general. We're talking about like a barely knighted 15-16 year old Quasar, just a legal adult in nautolan standards. Welp, my main plan is that he's hunting a stolen holocron down from the enemy's ship, and the enemy sets their ship to explode so you can imagine the ships integrity does not like it when parts of it get exploded off :)
Yeaah he doesn't really like tight spaces let's say that
5. HAH I'M DYING! But yes Gurmenas and Mi'var. I'm surprised I haven't drawn them more.
Anyway let's do the basic lore of them since there isn't a whole lot about them yet.
Gurmenas: let's be honest here, we like villains here and he is my very much indulged villain character and nothing else. This man does NOT know how to cook, social interactions NONE, yet people like him and I understand. Try to fix him, I dare you, he'll fight against you with teeth and nail, he knows he's fucked up and loves it. Oh yeah he's also an imperial, ain't that fun :) his hobbies include torture, first degree murderer and manipulation, I intend to not give him any redeeming qualities :)
Mi'var: my girl, what a goth (?) queen. For her I surprisingly have even less. I've been thinking that she could be related to Hera from her mother's side, and thus aristocratic, but still undecided on that. Well either way girly said no and became a rule breaker by joining or even starting a smugglers guild of her own, and we know she somehow dragged Quasar into it for a little while. Anyway her hobbies include: being quite literally better than you (knows a lot of things), fashion and probably caring for a handful of droids and or animals she's rescued
6. 🫡 Will do, you too readers
I've asked someone else this but I wanna hear from YOU as well <333
What is a random useless fact about some of your OCs?
:000 more asks about my ocs
You really said, "fine I'll do it myself"
Well, I'm unsure I have useless facts, but maybe fun facts :D
Quasar: Could make a nuke if he wanted to and given the right equipment, that man has detication if he really wants to do something
Leyc: He likes to wrestle space alligators for fun and usually wins, surprisingly enough
Bucket: Probably has the highest kill count as he's blown up a few star destroyers in his days
Zim: for her I have a little less planned out for so far, but I shall give you the knowledge that Dead Zone Platoon see her mainly as a little sister figure :)
Please enjoy this Ahsoka I painted in an attempt to find some inner peace recently.
Finally got my hands on my markers so I got this coloured :DD
Taking a small rest as your boyfriend probably infodumbs about military equipment
What is this? I'm consepting a possible fight between Quasar and Gurmenas?
Nooo it couldn't be
I like the thought that Wreck's the one who snaps Quasar out of his spiraling panic attack after Phoenix dies
Just some sleepy time
