Description Left to Rust
Left to rust and rot away
What was once an icon of hope
Is now a lost memory
All is breaking away
No longer alive
No longer the same
Let the memories come back to life
Nobody cares
No body is there
You only rise to fall again
Empty inside
What lies beneath is nothing but lies
Anything that remains is breaking away
Only the scars shall remain
Let the light fade away
An let time pass away
After all you were left to die and rot away

Here's one of the pieces I've been working on for a while Well for this one I the sketching took a while but the coloring didn't. I'm not exactly satisfied with it, but ehhh whatever I did my best to give it a rusty look. I've never tried to make something look old, this was my first time. I'm satisfied with the poem though The helmet is really just a symbol for something else but you guys can infer what it is

The helmet is that of a Republic Commando! Its from the video game Star Wars: Republic Commando. It's also an epic book series by Karen Traviss!

ENJOY!!!

Kinda reminds me of Felucia and the 128th (I think) from Star Wars Battlefront 2. It's horrifying to think of what happened to them, what with all the B1 Battle Droids, B2 Super Battle Droids, Droidekas and Magna Guards with Aklay and diseases (flesh eating according to the 501st) thrown in. Great job. It fleshes out how the Clones sacrificed so much for a government that they would soon help topple.

mandospartangirl117 In reply to Synxthe1st [2013-01-30 23:06:33 +0000 UTC]

Felucia was intense, a horrible place to be at. Those Aklays were so annoying in Battlefront I think that the fact that the government they worked for fell is the worst part. It was kinda all for nothing

Thank you

That's why you never want to fight a Metroid without a cold containment beam. If you don't have such a weapon and you find a Metroid, run away as fast as you can or you WILL die.

Master Chief is Microsoft's Samus Aran wannabe. Metroids are the easiest storyline goal enemy to defeat if you have the Ice Beam, which you always do by the time they show up, yet this ripoff dude couldn't even survive a one-on-one fight with one after collecting 100% of all his possible gear.

Never played Halo, the helm just looks more like the one they always show Master Chief wearing in crossover fanart than what the Clone Troopers wear in Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Master Chief shows up from time to time in Metroid series fanpics, usually being put in his place as a wimp by comparison to Samus. Never played any Star Wars games except the Lego ones.

mandospartangirl117 In reply to GamerGoddessDin [2013-01-30 23:12:53 +0000 UTC]

Well the Chief appears that way because she's a girl and he's a guy so they think it's just funny. And I don't see how the Chief is Microsoft's wannabe Metroid. Samus protects the galaxy from the depredations of the Space Pirates and she's a bounty hunter. While the Chief is government experiment made into a soldier who has to fight against a aliens invading the governments part of the galaxy. Totally different.

But yes the lego games are fun.

Aw...it's so sad. I really, really like the poem. I think people forget sometimes all those clones that just rotted out in the open on places like Geonosis or Jabiim. It's good that you reminded us all of this horrid, unremembered fall.

nimbus2224 In reply to mandospartangirl117 [2013-01-31 02:05:02 +0000 UTC]

I feel like that sometimes too. Rex is becoming a better man though and I am starting to enjoy seeing him. Weird as this sounds I'm actually a little glad they didn't. Alpha and Cody were the beginning of everything for my life as a (content) writer.

Every Clone Wars episode I'm torn between being excited for Star Wars and good stories, but at the same time afraid that it'll go against something in my books. I was kinda freaking out when they said Gregor was from the Battle of Sarrish. Alpha has a very big secret that I'm sure the writers of Clone Wars will not put in if they were to make an episode. It's like one of those things that you connect and your eyes pop out of your head because it's so epically awesome. I've been lengthening some Alpha stories so soon I might be able to put them up.

Oh yes!!! I never had any harsh feelings toward Rex really Ahhh I see, not weird at all really. I see your point

IKR! So you always try to make your stories fit the timeline? I totally gasped when they said Gregor went missing in the Battle of Serrish. I cant wait to read some Alpha stories then, I love a good mystery. And even more when it has got to do with Star Wars

nimbus2224 In reply to mandospartangirl117 [2013-02-02 04:42:00 +0000 UTC]

Haha, yes! They're more of a mystery (at least for the reader ) combined with an origin story. He's experiencing all these things for the first time and Jabiim isn't the nicest place to start. Glad you're looking forward to it!! I finally finished all my homework before the weekend so I should get some more time to draw and write!

Exactly! Jabiim was horrific But they are among my favorite SW comics So tense and exciting. The clone troopers are soo muscular in the comics And in The Clone Wars everyone looks anorexic Lucky! I need more time!

nimbus2224 In reply to mandospartangirl117 [2013-02-08 04:42:46 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, perhaps a little too muscular. :/ In Best Blades they made Alpha look like he was on steroids. I do like how they made them in Volume 2 though (I never got to read it all the way through because I haven't been able to put a hold on it. ). They could define them a little more in the clone wars because they really do look like they were made out of sticks or something.
