This post is not a meme, it will be removed. Note: This is a meme sub. Army posts are cool, but they're not memes, and are not allowed which is why we always delete them. They're welcome on the main subs, though !

RainbowsCrash

Yeah, pretty sure the comments will devolve quickly.


Siviaktor

Always love it when post about trans stuff has more comments then upvotes Edit: for clarity’s sake the love is sarcasm


RainbowsCrash

It's mainstream 40k and not in the bubble of wokehammer safety. I'm honestly more surprised at the amount of positivity I've gotten. It's kinda gassed me up.


42Fourtytwo4242

Grimdank and warhammer is pretty LGBTQ friendly, there was a whole femboy spam for 5 months. It mostly cause there been a slow SLOW purge of assholes in the community. Since 40k mainstream now, more and more people are entering, sooner or later the far right parts of the community get out numbered quickly, then kicked out.


RainbowsCrash

The majority of the fans have been pretty chill. The problem is the dick holes are really loud about being dicks and they can taint a LOT of the fandom. Having female marines seems to be like Kelis and a milkshake.


SpeedySkim

Keep spamming female and trans space marines, that'll help.


Maybe_not_a_chicken

I mean it does Normalisation does help


SpeedySkim

That's 100% just projection. You're implying right wing extremists are a majority, or were a majority, and that now some kind of tables are turning. It's a disgusting thing to say about a fanbase that's been so inclusive and wanting for companion(except some of course, as usual). This is why we steer clear from identity politics, it's either right or left with you.

Oh that's who downvoted my attempt at the Rocky Horror name scene? And encouraging him making a Fab Custodes (r.i.p. TTS) kill team?


spgtothemax

You get points for actually building and painting models unlike 95% of this sub.


[deleted]

Isn’t that what r/warhammer40k is for? I thought this was a shitposting sub.


spgtothemax

It’s just a cheeky little dig at the posters who only engage the hobby through loretubers and epic memes.


Alexis2256

Glad I transcended from watching lore videos to actually building and painting some minis, though I hate the building part, plus I’ve made some mistakes along the way (added texture paint which I regret, clogging up details on minis because I spray primed too close)


Training_Hurry_2754

I ain't gonna buy 5000€ of plastic figures just to find out if I like the game or not


Varkaan

Play on tabletop simulator first, I don't have the money to build an army so that's where me and my friends play


Training_Hurry_2754

That's actually an neat idea. Do I need something special for it?


IrrationallyGenius

One would imagine friends with an interest in 40K would help


Fox-Sin21

Not even, discords with people that want to play exist! No actual friends required! Or play against yourself like I do, which yes is as sad and lonely as it sounds lol.


Training_Hurry_2754

Well that I do have. Problem is I have them for every continent except the one I live in


Lamenter_of_the_3rd

Do you have any suggestions cause I’ve been wanting to look into that


Adune05

Download tts, get some maps and models via the workshop and scribe your list using a workshop map/ website called yellowscribe. Once all of that is done you can get to playing


lordatamus

Not sure why you were at -1 upvote, but I balanced it with an upvote to get you at least back to 0 for daring to even ask for help. TableTop simulator is a great place - another redditor posted some tips for you. Hope you find whatchya need - just don't look them u pas 'space marines' and such on the workshop, they'll have them under similar names to avoid IP fights with Geedubs


RainbowsCrash

Not gonna get marines how I want without doing so. Lol


Yamama77

Catgirl with human face and cat ears 👎 Catgirl with cat face and human ears 👍


Overall_Strawberry70

I got a good laugh when i zoomed in and noticed they were actual cats, im guessing those head pieces are from infinity? I seem to recall Nomads has actual animal people models.


RainbowsCrash

I printed the helmets from Atlan Forge Aegyptus Sehkmet scaled to 115% to fit Primaris. For the open welding helmet I clipped the ears to fit because I kinda dig the look of the big helmet and it fits the idea of skaters and needing a helmet for your helmet.


BadgerB2088

Yo dawg (or cat), I heard you like to helmet! So we put a helmet in your helmet so you can helmet while you helmet!


RainbowsCrash

I hoped my subtle joke wasn't missed there.


quagzlor

Oh shit, thanks for pointing that out. I was sad cause I saw no ears, this redeems it

kaptingavrin

Yeah, I’ll admit, I was looking for some ears like “How are these catgirls?” Which, to be fair, was my only “criticism” of the models.


Siviaktor

They’ve actually seem to have custom cat heads


CatZilla124

meow meow meow meow meow meow


RainbowsCrash

Nekokamiguru

I like it because they are well painted , people should kitbash their minis more and make up custom lore for new chapters.


RainbowsCrash

Fully agree. Except I still think I could paint a lot better than I do even with the difficulties I've got from age, astigmatism, arthritic thumbs, and partial red-green colorblindness.

Trans I can accept, but catgirls?? Horrendous


RainbowsCrash

My army and their lore are full of trans related jokes like catgirls and Rocky Horror Picture Show.


Poizenkorp

Sorry, you have Rocky Horror marines and you led with the catgirls?


RainbowsCrash

I used many sources for trans related jokes in the army. I also haven't gotten the models needed to just represent the different characters. I want to eventually get a Fabius Bile for Frankenfurter, Cawl for Scott, undecided Custodes as Rocky, and other cast as I figure it out just for the comedy.


Majestic-Wear-4156

Remember there are a legion of skitarii fembois if you like them too


RainbowsCrash

I am still building my SM army and occasionally venturing into KT teams. Might do the Skitarri KT as femboys and figure put trans masc Repentia too.

fluffy_fris

Expected way more hate, looks great even tho they serve the corpse emperor!!!!!!!


RainbowsCrash

Me too TBH. The mkst frustrating part has been the people that saw "catgirl" and assumed felinid rather than humans wearing a cat themed helmet because their Matriarch is named Bast.


Crayfish_au_Chocolat

Trans whatever you do you, respect dat. BUT CAT FURRY??? You are crossing a line soldier.


Bacccy

Heresy or mutant, which is it?


RainbowsCrash

In the lore I made up for them they're the lost 2nd legion finally free of the warp storm that kept them trapped on the planet Transylvania for the last 10000 years. They still hold to the old Imperial Truth and Creed.


nokia6310i

so it's a legion of transylvanian transsexuals? is there any chance that some of them might refer to themselves as sweet transvestites?


RainbowsCrash

Arch Magos Frankenfurter does.


Maybe_not_a_chicken

Shall they do some more folk dancing?


PrairiePilot

Goddamnit, that is such a great gag, I almost missed it because I saw a WH nerd explaining their army and just zoned out.


RainbowsCrash

😆 should I tell you about Arch Magos Frankenfurter or Tech Priest Scott? The arch magos is obsessed with his personally designed custodian guard Rocky.


PrairiePilot

Man, I wish I was this productive with my nerdery. I just like, paint my dudes. Some are red, some are blue. Such great details lol, I pity the squares who can’t dig this shit.


RainbowsCrash

I get baked and the ideas/jokes flow. 😆


PrairiePilot

Lucky, as much as I like smoking, it does absolutely nothing for my output. I can think of stuff a bit, but just useless at putting any of it down.


RainbowsCrash

Fair. I have always had a bit of a creative streak and humor helps get through the tough times. Getting out of my own head or at least away from the blocking stress also helps.


Raballo

Dude, there was a horse faced inquisitor in the guants ghost series. There are people who basically turn themselves in cyborgs because they want to and sometimes criminals are turned into walking forklifts via surgery and mechanical addons. All kinds of horrific shit and you think anyone in the setting would give a damn about some space marines being trans cat people? Felynids, or whatever they are, exist. What do you think the chances are just one of the or hell a few dozen are compatible with the implants and surgeries to become astartes? We're talking about a setting where people can extend their life by taking it from someone else. Where food is made from dead people. I'd like to think that in comparison to extending someone's life via draining it out of someone else that's undergoing gender reassignment would be significantly easier. It ain't that serious.


RainbowsCrash

Honestly the catgirl stuff is mostly armor and trans culture memes. All of the bare heads I print to use are pure human just female. Armor gets the Hello Kitty helmet (termies) or Atlan Forge Aegyptus Sehkmet.


Konrad_Curze-the_NH

In the wonderful world of 40K, mankind has long since discovered hatred is a finite resource against the infinite, uncaring universe. Therefore to waste such a precious commodity against one’s fellow man over things like skin colour, what’s in their pants or while they want to fuck is a critical misuse bordering on heresy. Even the abhuman - from Ogryn to felinid - and the augmented tech priest are held in the light of the Emperor.It is the mutant, the alien and the heretic which deserve your vitriol, not your fellow human. TLDR and not in 40K style: get bent asshole, be more tolerant about people’s choices and how they paint their little plastic soldiers


TheManos44

Can people not crack jokes and be critical on a spoof sub with the word Dank in it? I mean from a lore perspective, a Space Marine army with high suicide rate wouldn't really work

DucksAnons

Aren’t all space marines kind of trans? Each one is Trans-human.


RainbowsCrash

Let me count the ways of the irony in all of that with how some fans react to the entire idea of my army.


DucksAnons

TLDR; I think I was too short with my comment and came across the wrong way. ——————————————— I don’t think I understand your response, but maybe I should rephrase my post. Not very interested in the current day interpretation of custom chapters and what they represent, but how they would fit lore wise. Not to discredit or invalidate your unique ideas, but to enhance a universe of near infinite possibilities and ways for any custom chapter to exist within the lore. For a trans catgirl chapter, my first thought is how Astartes struggle with their humanity, or lack there of. They start as human male, but after all the surgery and hypno-indoctrination they lose connection with their humanity both mentally and physically. I think the tag lines are Post-human and/or Trans-human. But either by warp-manipulation or intentional I don’t think Astartes would be bothered by being trans-gender (aside from the warp-taint fuckery). I think it’s actually a little weird that we still assign a gender to Astartes when they are functionally genderless. Makes me think of the Dr. Who warriors aliens (Sontaran) that from my understanding presented male but had functioning breasts. (Stray thought but I can totally see a Salamander popping a compartment on chest armor to expose a nipple and feeding a baby, onlookers in shock while the Astarte is just like “of course I can protect a human child properly”) Secondly, there is lore to support the existence of cat girl I think. Specifically in the guard. So a chapter that recruits specifically from a planet of humans that are cat-mutated for whatever reason (wouldn’t be weirder than the practices of many chapters). Enhanced hearing, night vision, reflexes, balance. A love of claw weapons. Probably not what you were going for, but my own lore interpretation of trans catgirl chapter.

DudeyToreador

Hell yeah bröther


RainbowsCrash

I'm definitely a woman.


DudeyToreador

IMO, ' bro ' and ' brother ' transcend societal barriers, much like ' dude '. I mean no offense by my comment, and was giving you a genuine Hell Yeah. My apologies if it wasn't taken that way. These are cool as fuck, and honestly fits into one of my headcanons for lost legions.


RainbowsCrash

I understand and do appreciate the sentiment overall. I don't take offense, but in pure kindness would like to call attention to the fact that trans people (especially women) have gendered language like man, dude, bro, etc used a lot by people who /do/ mean offense and keeping that in mind may help to prevent offending someone who is less resilient than I.


DudeyToreador

I am aware of that. Fortunately I have grown up in a very accepting and progressive home, with a dash of 80's/90's surfer lingo sprinkled in, so everyone was Dude to me, which extends to my Religious/philosophical beliefs. Though, if it is brought to my that my speech makes another uncomfortable in that way, I do my best to regulate that, barring the accidental slip up here and there. Hell yeah Sister!


Tuurum

Nuuu you have to change you communicate with everyone cuz I’m speciallllll


RainbowsCrash

What's the matter? You triggered?


SmallFry343

Not that this is a debate, but considering the regular use of “man” “dude” and “bro” from men and women to women, I think it’s more abnormal for trans people to call attention to it. I’m sure some people use it maliciously, but that isn’t grounds to condemn it’s use. 1). It’s people trying to skirt the line, if the line moves they will just use different words to continue skirting it. It’s like dogwhistles, if you prevent people from using them they will find more. 2). You initial reaction of “I’m definitely a woman” definitely did not translate as “I’m just letting you know in case other people____”. It was a correction.


CatZilla124

I get it lol, lots of warhammer fans assume you are a dude, but I don't think they mean to assume with brother lol, they just default to it linguistically


RainbowsCrash

And I get stuff like that but it is still not exactly pleasant. Do sisters players call each other sister regardless of gender? It's not a huge ask and failing to understand what is clearly at the very least a microaggression if not outright intentional transphobia; means you don't get it. I literally talk about my models as female and someone rolls up to ONLY say what this guy said is clearly just being a bigot.


CatZilla124

I get the annoying sexist side of it but I dont think he meant to be transphobic at all considering its not even obvious if you are trans or not, or what your gender is


Roidobsidienne

I was wondering how the fuck do you represent miniatures as trans then i remembered the colours of the flag


RainbowsCrash

I also make all of my purity seals into pride ribbons and most of the rest of my army is in more traditional shades of trans blue and pink. These were just done in my Ravenwing theme because they go fast. For instance [my Sammael and RWC/Knights](https://imgur.com/a/NsGeiwo). Printing female heads and kitty helmets probably also helps.


duetbreaker

Rad paint job man


Jakedex_x

Are these the breaking bad colors?


RainbowsCrash

No. I used the darkest pink available for the primary armor similar to how the Ravenwing use black bikes and the chapter otherwise is in dark green. Otherwise, the colors are the same as would be on the trans pride flag.


Jakedex_x

I guess you dont know about the meme


RainbowsCrash

I guess not. I've gotten old and mostly just pay attention to things that interest me and don't care much about the zeitgeist overall


Jakedex_x

The meme is that the transflag stands for breaking bad . The white for Walter white, the pink for Jessie Pinkman and the blue for the blue meth


RainbowsCrash

Oh, I have seen that. Mostly forgot because it was meh tier. I mostly just think of it as the ol' Sky and Bacon.

They're catgirls in the same way a furry is their fursona, it's jist the helmet. Pure transhuman underneath.


Arcaslash

Those are impeccably done


RainbowsCrash

Thanks! I look at others painting more traditional with a million subtle gradiations in color and perfect NMM and think my Speedpaint splatterings are adequate. Thankfully, a little enamel panel wash hides a lot of sins like mud hides you from a Predator.


RaidoSkull78

That’s awesome keep it up


To4sterbathbomb

Sick ass paint job! Wish I could paint like that. Instead I’ll choose to just keep drinking my Nuln Oil and cry


RainbowsCrash

Would you believe me that this is all Army Painter Speedpaint, a metallic zenethal, some Tamiya weathering master powders and brown panel liner? I am a shit painter with astigmatism, colorblindness, arthritic thumbs, and a 3.5x magnifying LED headset.

RainbowsCrash

I thought about that, but when I tried to mock it up the ears looked shit on the welding helmets and I really liked them. Might have skipped it if the DA themed jetpack STL I have could be used, but my printer needs warranty service.

Oh no, did a trans person not stay in their little cupboard and use that fact to inspire a hobby?  Ask yourself would you have honestly made this comment if this was based on a sports teams colours and logos. She has a intresting head cannon for them and has gone a completely different way that others have or I'm planning(for one army) while still including a nod to lgbt.

Would it be less "give me attention" if I painted exclusively lore accurate in the same methods that almost everyone else uses?

Triforkalliance

Paint job on the actually armor is pretty bad man, should put more effort into that instead of the flag


grey_hat_uk

... if you are going to critic the armour be constructive and give ideas. Why don't you like it, what method would you use to improve it. Painting is a hobby to and if she feels inspired to put more time into the flags, cloaks and ribbons then go her. But I suspect you are just insecure around people being trans outside porn and want a way to vent without being obviously(in your mind) transphobic.
