Reblog To Let Prev Know Their Presence Is Wanted

genuinely so tired of people calling my identity a fetish

Are Flawless Blades basically just streamers for daemonic audiences?

Anyways, I have a new headcanon.

LIKE TO CHARGE REBLOG TO CAST LET'S GET THIS FUCKER EXPLODEDED

Just printed a mini in resin for the first time in several months (since any resin printing I do is through my college).

Just gotta keep telling myself it's worth it for the final product.

"My ignorance is as good as your knowledge" but leftist.

its scientifically proven and for some people its a religious thing. it goes hand in hand with manifestation and subliminals. stop fucking posting about something u dont understand. u sound like an idiot

SHOW ME THE STUDY

I like this perspective on what a dream job is. I'd probably still do what I want to do now: find new, improved ways of blowing up massive amounts of explosives in a vaguely controlled manner with people on top of them.

The people who say shit like "I don't dream about labour" when asked about their dream job make me sad. It's not their fault and it's an obvious conclusion to come to in the environment that we live in, but they really do seem to make no difference between work, and being exploited. You do want to work, it is inherent human nature to want to do things, you just don't want to slave for shit wages while making profit for someone else.

If art wasn't an option and I didn't have to worry about being profitable, I know what I would be doing: Keep a little shop selling secondhand-thirdhand buttons and buckles.

Thrift shops and secondhand stores could dump (or sell, whatever) their unsold and unwanted goods to me, and I could spend all day going through the heaps and picking them apart, plucking the still-perfectly-good buttons, zippers and buckles out of discarded things with threadbare fabrics and sell them.

Probably also making those little trinket storage boxes out of hollowed-out books. By hollowing out books that nobody wanted or read.

I have two separate armies using Codex: Space Marines, and you could tell them apart from a glance of the army lists, without even looking at the paintjobs (and ignoring divergent chapter units).

I will never understand why people put Space Marines as a "beginners faction". Literally no army allows you to collect 2000+ points worth of gamepieces that do not interact or synergize with each other. Not even talking about building a "competitive" list here, but just about having the pieces work together with the whole thing having base functionality.

Space Marines is literally the worst faction to start with as a new player. It's 10 different armies in a trenchcoat and they do not overlap as much as you'd think they do in what they use and how they use it; all while the game is balanced around assuming you know what you are doing here. This is also the main reason "generic space marine" win rates are usually so low. People get baited into what might possibly the the least beginner-friendly faction because SOMEHOW there persists the idea of them being the "starter army", and then they obviously get stomped.

Maybe I'm just projecting, but the Emperor's Children really read as people who were told, all their lives, that they were the best, and yet everywhere they looked they saw evidence that they weren't. Sure, they had the Aquilla, but the Ultramarines conquered worlds far more quickly, and the Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus became the legion of the Warmaster, and the Dark Angels were allowed special weapons, and the Thousand Sons had psychic powers that allowed them to be as effective as a far more numerous force, and so on.

But, everyone says they're the best, so they try, as hard as they can, to prove themselves worthy of it, not realizing that they don't have to.

Then there's the Laer campaign. They declare that they'll do it in a month, and it takes far longer. During the battle, they see the Laers, and how each one is "perfectly" engineered to serve their role. The Laers are, at least in some ways, better than them. And so they try to mimic them. Fulgrim picks up the sword, and it tells him "I can make you the best".

They never break and say "fuck it, I'll have fun--if they did, they wouldn't have fallen.

They just went deeper and deeper. "Just a bit more," Slaanesh told them, "and you'll be perfect".

You will never escape. (Okay, well, that's not entirely true. You might be able to if you look hard enough.

i hate it when people are writing a long ass thing and start a parenthetical aside and forget to close parentheses it makes me feel like i cant escape from the sentence

Had he not fallen, he would have been the best primarch. He was someone who cared about the common people of the Imperium, believing that each had the potential to do great things, if only they were given the chance. He conquered worlds through sheer charisma, not just military force.

It should be noted, however, that the Laer Blade wasn't the sole reason behind his fall, merely the tipping point. It latched onto his insecurities about needing to be good enough, and fed them until they consumed him. At the same time, the legion was being corrupted by similar insecurities--Bile's experimentation to integrate the Laer's stuff was done on Eidolon's orders, not Fulgrim's, and it's implied that Eidolon was actually going against Fulgrim's orders in doing so.

🥀 The Fall of Fulgrim

-I've yet to finish his books but I cannot fathom the wasted potential Fulgrim would've had if only he did not pick up that damn sword.

(art by me)

Still new in the warhammer fandom but I've been enjoying my time making primarch pieces
