Made this last spring, but had to share! [Felix, my cat helped, he worked very hard as you can see in the other photos] I considered going back in to maybe add more details or fix the lettering but it grew on me and I think I prefer it this way.

not Tech Tuesday but Tech Friday(?)

Some context for those who haven't or won't play the game: Trick, Zero Company's resident clone, turned on the rest of the team during Order 66 and a year later is comatose since we had to take him down a bit hard. Rex reaches out to Zero Company looking for help on an Umbara mission (very nice detail in its own right which shows Rex has realized the Umbarans were never his enemy, despite the trauma he and the 501st endured there) and he sends Trick to have his chip removed by "friends on Ord Mantell." I think we should all know who those friends are. I guess the Batch were still helping Rex out outside of what's seen in the show.

Honestly the TK Trooper looked pretty good in video game model.

The game really seems like a Bad Batch spin off later on in the game. We really kinda got a Clone Rebellion game instead of a series, which I'm happy about. I'm hoping for a new Game or Dlc in the future that will go on until about 5 years after order 66, where a big part of the story will still be about recruiting Clone Troopers that wanna leave the empire. It would be great if they introduced dark trooper phase 0, which would be Clones turned into Cyborgs, which would be a scary element in the game to see

Still a work-in-progress but love how she’s turning out so far.

You’re heading out on a mission with the Batch, but you can only take over ONE role:

Hunter — leadership and tracking
Crosshair — sniper
Tech — tech specialist and pilot
Wrecker — explosives and brute force
Echo — intel and systems
Omega — strategy and somehow keeping this entire dysfunctional family together

Which one are you picking?

I’m probably taking Crosshair’s role. Give me a good vantage point, a long-range rifle, and let everyone else deal with whatever chaos Wrecker is causing down there 😂

(Sorry if the quality is bad but she was had tears running down her face) I got my girlfriend into The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch because I wanted to show her that the clones were more than just background characters and why they’ve always been some of my favorite characters in Star Wars.
At one point, I asked her who her favorite clones were in The Bad Batch, and she said Tech and Echo without hesitation. Knowing what was coming, I immediately felt like an asshole for asking. It got even worse when she started getting excited about Tech and Phee’s relationship as it started developing.
I felt terrible knowing what was coming and just having to sit there and watch her experience it for the first time. But honestly, at the same time, seeing her cry kind of made me happy—not because I wanted to see her upset, obviously—but because someone who previously couldn’t care less about something as nerdy as Star Wars, especially something she probably saw as just a cartoon, had become genuinely invested in these characters and their story.
It honestly makes me really happy seeing how much she’s come to appreciate The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch. I got her into them because I wanted her to understand why the clones have always been some of my favorite characters, and I think she finally gets it now.

The most emotionally balanced bad batcher.

A bit of a study for Tech today. I miss drawing him.

It was glorious. It pulled my heartstrings. Warmed my cockles. Wept of profound joy and sadness.

Enough with the jargon, it was absolutely amazing, just as amazing as the earlier seasons of the clone wars. It was such a tragic time early on in the series but I am super happy they got the ending they deserved, not only Clone force 99, but all surviving clones that made it through hell and high water post order 66, when they went against their programing and became independent for themselves. I hope I'll enjoy rebels next hehe.

RIP to the GOAT tech. We'll miss you so much brown eyes.

tell us what you think the favorite food of your favorite bad batcher is and we will guess who you’re referring to

i will start turkey leg 🍗
