Commander Thorn - Blog Posts

Something fluffy that I’ve been working on for fun these past weeks. 

Thorn is the best bro, Stone is here to just make fun, the Trooper name is Prankster and his pranks are the reason Fox has gray hair.

Some doodles with Corries and my OCs

Thire and Pain are best friends. I have no idea what wild story Thorn is telling here to have these reactions. 

I missed my favourite Coruscant Guards so here is Thorn and Fox!

I have this weird headcanon that Thorn was named by Fox in a “Why are you a Thorn in my side?” And Thorn just ran with it kind of way… well, here’s the rest of the commanders as they are accidentally named by Fox.

Stone (who accidentally ate something he wasn’t supposed to and Fox is coming to replace him in patrol)

Senator: “Are you high?”

Fox, panicking: “No, he’s stoned. I mean his name is Stone and he’s in training.”

Thire (who was talking about Thorn with Fox)

Thire: *yawns*

Fox, also tired and stopping mid-sentence: “You’re Thired. Go to bed. We’ll continue this in the morning.”

I feel like its a running joke in the Guard that vode are taking Fox’s insults and misspeaks and are like “yup. You will never live this down. This is my name now.”

“Move, Caff. I need away.” (Move away. I need caff)

“Unless the Chancellor is dying, I don’t want to hear it, Shehn'eta (was trying to say shiny or vod’ika and his brain mixed them ended up with 80 in Mando’a) (now the shiny is called 80 despite not having those numbers in his designation. He loves telling the story though )

TOOKA TOOKA

It has not even been a rotation before commander cody came down to the Corrie hq namely to the drunk tank with boil to pick up Lt waxer and corporal Wooley who had been arrested for massive complaints of starting a tooka revolution or as they would say.

waxer: "commander..whatever they said we d-did not." *waxer tried to defend now under the harsh looks he got from boil and Cody who where not amused.* "b-boil I swear I can explain it was Wooley who gave me the ideas."

wooley: "tooka legion shall rise!" *wooley threw his hands in the air giggling and hiccuping from the cot welded to the wall for people to sit on. Wooley was pretty much not even listening*

commander Cody: "you both I have the right mind to leave you di'kuts here to sober up."

boil: waxer. I know you too well and I'm not helping with your reports on this."

fox: "Cody you are NOT leaving them here take your kids and don't let me catch them here again." *he glared from Cody to thorn who was laughing at this all*

just a normal day at the normal office where everything is normal always

He didn’t have to wait long. The even click-thud of Lieutenant Thorn’s stride emerged from the mess, just as the lieutenant himself passed the hall. Fox reached out and snagged his pauldron.

Thorn twitched violently and then whirled around, one hand dropping to his blaster but the other rising in a neat salute. “Commander! Hi! I mean hello! Um. Hello, sir.”

Hm. Thorn was getting used to him.

This is a recent fic I’m posting for @starwarsalltypesoflove week long celebration! It’s a messy mix of like three different kinds of love that Fox is not happy to be feeling for his troops, lol.

haat cuyir let dayn ~ Truth Revealed Chapter 5 has been posted on ao3 as of 12/29/22

Chapter Summary:

Fox continued speaking, stating, "Like I said when you first arrived, this isn't the Front. The Guard has different regulations then you did out there and until I can trust you to understand this and follow the rules that have been put in place, I can't rely on you to not act like arrogant Shinies."

"How many rules do you need for Flimsi work?" Wolffe muttered to Bly who slightly shrugged in response.

"We do more than just Flimsi-work Wolffe." Fox stated, "Contrary to popular belief apparently." Fox muttered loud enough for all of them to hear what he said. How long would it take for them to understand this simple concept?

I’m going down the Clone Wars amv rabbit hole please send help. Literally just clicked on a video that showed Commander Thorn in the thumbnail and we all know which scene it is :)

Clone Wars but the troopers have tik tok. The guards (Thorn) would totally do the a “I don’t want your money” to Fox let’s be honest.

Ya know You Found Me by The Fray. Yeah soo like that one line “Lying on the floor, surrounded surrounded.” Uhh yeah I’m just gonna drop this

Next Helmet ⛑ Commander Thorn 🥰

Thire: ...Thorn...What are you doing waving your blaster carbine around outside of Fox's office? Thorn: He's sleeping inside. Stone: ...What are you two doing pointing your blasters at everyone? Thire: We're guarding Fox's office door. Thorn: He's sleeping inside. Hound: Huh? Why are you three guarding Fox's office door? Thorn: He's sleeping inside. He's been sleeping for a whole three hours now. Cody: What's going on?...What are the four of you doing threatening everyone who gets close to Fox's office? Is the chancellor in there or something? Thire: No. No one is permitted to enter Marshal Commander Fox's office. Do not call out to him; we will silence you. Obi-Wan: May I ask why? Thorn: He's sleeping. Cody: Force. Ok. Uh...Let me find Rex. We'll help you. Obi-Wan, chuckling: You lot take your sleep seriously, don't you? Cody: He sleeps once a week. Obi-Wan: ...I'll fetch Anakin and Ahsoka.

AU in which the chancellor dies in a freak (probably Zillo-beast related) accident. Everyone is attending his funeral and really, the Jedi are trying really hard to mourn but it’s incredibly difficult to when the entirety of the coruscant guard is apparently throwing a mental and spiritual party so loud in the Force Dathomir can feel it.

I love the thought of grumpy x sunshine bromance with Fox and Thorn. Thorn being the sunshine character and Fox being the grumpy one.

Fox always seems annoyed whenThorn jokes around or gets on his nerves but he secretly likes it and doesn’t mind a little but of company.

Coruscant Guard hot take:

Out of the all the clone sects, they’re the most accustomed to killing organics (non-droids).

Hear me out, other clones are on actual battlefields but 90% of their enemies are droids. I don’t think we see much of clones killing organics outside of order 66, and that one fucked up episode w/ pong Krell.

Also I know there’s groups aligned w/ the separatist or at least unaligned but still fighting republic troops. But I’m not arguing quantity I’m arguing the clones familiarity with killing organic beings

For the coruscant guard, while a lot of droids are around, living beings are far more likely to be perpetrators/criminals. Lethal force to a degree seems to be allowed, not for the safety of the clones of course, but so the assailant doesn’t hurt anyone with actual human rights. But do you see my point?

Fox: Is 8 a lot?

Thorn: It kinda depends. Credits? No. The number of cups of caf you drank since this morning? Yes!

✨More Clones Brickheadz !✨

Since I acquired the Small Cody (40675), I found that there was an untapped mine. Why would they only make one ? Well. I don't have an answer to that, but I decided to take matters into my own one; so behold : 11 more. I went mostly for commanders here, but then I went a bit astray and so I added some captains to the mix.

In order, row by row :

Tukk (Not cannon but the colours are so beautiful)/Vaungh (died too soon-)/Rex (obviously)/Fordo (I did Rex, so I had to)

Gree/Doom/Thorn/Neyo

Bly/Cody/Fox/Wolffe

It was a really fun project, and I hope to do more of them in the future - maybe even phase 1s, some day~); supposedly not commanders because I did most of them (except Bacara, I know...The helmet was too tough).

And because I really like challenges, if you want to see another clone turned into one of these (Be it cannon or one of your ocs) feel free to send requests in my aksbox !)

Anyway this post is already far too long for anyone's dashboard, so closeups and details will be under the cut !

Let's start with the easy ones : Cody, Doom, Fox, Thorn

Obviously, Cody was easy, I just rebuilt the original one virtually - Nothing too hard. The printed pieces here are not the right ones, because Cody's are not available on STUDio yet, but the storm trooper ones were relatively similar, so I used these for most of these models. Of course, it means I'm lacking the sun bands, and a few other distinctive elements, but it works well enough for now.

Now, Doom is essentially a colour variation (minus a few antennas). I also used an old space piece, which has this big yellow arrow printed on it. I's not exactly what Doom has, but I feel like it's close enough for a first attempt.

Then, Fox is relatively similar to Doom, but with two DC-17s. I also moved the printed torso brick up to get that red line he has.

Thorn works in a similar way to Cody too, except I removed both accessories on the side of the helmet. I also added this tile with diagonal lines to figure the wings he has. One day I'll slap some real wings on there, but I haven't found the right image yet. I also gave him a Z-6, obviously. I really like it, so I might actually make that one physically, because the way it's build (with old binocular pieces) is pretty nice; although I doubt the pieces are available in black.

Moving on to two captains : Vaughn and Tukk !

Admittedly, not really that different either, except for one thing : I learnt to do custom prints now ! Yay ! Well, these are really basic : the blue line for Vaughn, and some trapezoids for Tukk's helmet (which are, indeed, not visible here - shame, I spent so long making these fit). The Ahsoka pattern was already in STUDio (because Ahsoka already has her own brickheadz, which I'll get my hands on someday~)

I must also add that having some cyan in this whole thing added some much needed colours in here, I'm grateful some people give their clones amazing colours (If somehow someone doesn't know who Tukk is, well just check High Ground Animation. Right now. It's really cool, trust me). Anyway.

As for design changes, I modified the faces slightly by adding 1x1 tiles, to allow for different colours variations on the face. It makes them look slightly blockier, but given the overall size of the head, it doesn't do much.

I also gave Vaughn a DC-15A. It's a bit messy, but it works out well enough. Past me forgot to render it, so here is a raw, in-software picture of it (from Fordo(s hand, but it's the same design for both) :

BARC helmets ? Wolffe, Fordo, Neyo

As I've been told, these look a bit wonky, and I'll admit its wasn't exactly easy, but in my defence, it's relatively hard to get such round shapes with bricks (lego cheated by adding the visor). Anyway, given that doing that with a printed piece was out of the question, I tried to replicate the filter's shape with actual bricks, and I used a printed piece which, technically, is Lando's moustache, but downward. I'd say it does the job relatively well.

I also added a rangefinder to Wolffe, which is a little big compared to everyone else's antennas, but It's still relatively to scale with the head itself. No custom prints for him (not sure where I would find the correct pattern images ?), but I've done it for Fordo and Neyo. Fordo obviously has his well deserved Jaig eyes (and who knew it would be that difficult to find a picture of that on internet ?), and Neyo has his symbol on the helmet, chest plate, and the shoulder not shown here.

The really tinkered ones : Gree, Bly, Rex :

Here, it was a matter of trials and errors to figure out just how to get the shapes right.

I actually started with Bly, by removing the previous visor and adding the macrobinoculars first, then I tried to shape the helmet around. Truth is, it doesn't make sense technically : the two separated parts of the helmet do not connected at all, if you remove the equipment. Luckily, no one has to know that.

Next is Gree. It took me some time to figure out how to properly get a round feel, but I feel like it's as good as I can make it like this. Colour-wise, it was surprisingly difficult to find how to balance the different shades of green, and equally hard was to figure out which silvery colour would render well in STUDio. The answer lied, as it always does, in Bionicle. Of course, none of these pieces exist in this colour, but it's not really my main problem (because none of the coloured printed pieces exist either).

Finally, Rex...He gave me some trouble, I have to admit. Firstly, the part-designing software decided to have some trouble with custom prints, which was problematic, because I simply couldn't do Rex without jaig eyes (and Fordo already had his). Then, I started with Gree's base and tried to go from there to fit Rex's custom helmet. I ended up using Boba Fett's printed visor piece for Rex, because these were all triangles. I also got rid of the printed chest piece and used some black plates to simulate the pouch he has; while also adding a a few more custom printed pieces for the arms and pauldron (barely visible, but they're here. I'm not entirely happy with it, but I don't see much other solutions than more and more custom prints, which isn't my goal, so it'll stay like that for now.

Anyway, that's way too much rambling for one post, so I'll just end by saying that next week I'll post an alt version of this whole build [here !], with some 'slight' colour alterations. Definitely nothing big.
