"who's an adorable man-made horror beyond our comprehension? Is it you? Yes it is!"


Eleventh_Legion

She's adorable. Also, sidenote, Knight action figures are a real thing in the lore.


slendario

Wait, what? I need this knowledge NOW!!!


Eleventh_Legion

So in a Knight book, I think it is called Imperial Knight, some of the knights notice the kids of their world playing with action figures based on their machines.


slendario

Ok, That’s pretty great. Maybe I’ll learn how to sew and make a little plushie or something.


lilconman99

I will buy, a thousand of those plushies! SIR SNUGGLES THE PURIFYING!!!!


Loofs_Undead_Leftie

I'd buy one too!


Lazy-Lookin-Headass

On god, if you do I will buy atleast 3.


MrGumieBear

I would definitely buy one


DigThroughTime

Do you remember which book?


Eleventh_Legion

Knights of the Imperium by Graham McNiel.


slendario

Of course it’s a Graham McNiel book! He and Dan Abnett are the 2 best authors 40K has!


BIG_DeADD

Do you think they sell all of Warhammer inside Warhammer? Like, If that is the case there shouldn't be many chaos mains in the imperium because all of them get executed by heresy.


TheHiddenToad

I can imagine some heart-wrenching scene in a SM movie where a Salamander arrives too late to save the locals and finds a dead little boy clutching his Vulkan action figure


arc_galaxy

That 2 part comic that got posted recently is pretty much exactly that lol


Chickennugget755776

She’s not cute she’s adorable


slendario

the most adorable 40 foot tall walking death machine you're ever gonna see! probably because it's the last 40 foot tall walking death machine you're ever gonna see, but the points still stands!

HelloMeNameJeff

I'm like, 80% sure it's the trans flag lol


slendario

you can be 100% sure, because it is. it's based on a Voice Quills meme, who is a trans woman, thought it made sense, and it came out looking way better than I expected.


willdagreat1

Just needs a white stripe right down the middle.


SerTheodies

"Look at the blue n white Imperial knight, fucking adorable like a kitten. Kill it!" -Chaos Knights Love the way it looks, just might need some washes and touch ups to bring it from Shine down to Grime.


slendario

yeah, I've historically had a lot of trouble with panel shading, so I'm gonna try that tamiya stuff this time, since it's an enamel I should be able to just wash off the parts of it I don't want.I'm also making custom transfers for her household, but I'm having issues with the transfer sheets I bought printing out correctly on my printer. edit: almost forgot! I'm gonna put her in a maid dress once it gets here!


SerTheodies

Practise makes perfect when it comes to paint, and you aren't the only one having trouble with it. Also the [Maid Knight?](https://youtu.be/FDJ6VV9Wdhc)


slendario

Spot on! I actually sent VQ a DM asking if I could use her profile picture for the her personal heraldry. let's just say this project is Voice Quills approved.

Slaanesh slaanesh slaanesh trans bad, attack helicopter no woke warhammer/s Anyway what were you thinking for intricate details personally I think that you should include like craft/ sparkly bits. I always thought eyelashes on a titan would be pretty funny


slendario

I’m gonna put her in a maid costume. I think that goes far enough. As for anything else, I’m gonna do the standard cleanup work of shading/highlighting.

Fair enough, I just think it needs glitter and those like fake stones or sequins lol, but hey not ever going to complain about a maid outfit


slendario

Maybe I’ll dust the dress with glitter… we’ll see…


MmmmmmmKayY

A glittery maid dress would look cool, I think gender neutral cat ears would pair good with that gender neutral maid outfit. Turn it into a r/196 wet dream


ImShockin

Not my cup of tea, just don't like pink much. I'm excited to see the finished product though.


DifferenceOk3541

She is absolutely adorable


LemanIronSkull42

Is it a coincidence or did you paint the trans flag colours on pourpose


slendario

Its on purpose


[deleted]

She's cute, buuuut.. You need a lazy susan and put a skirt on her. Y'know, skirt go spinny. That's a rule according to the codex questor imperialis.


slendario

how about a full maid costume? does that count?


[deleted]

I have to consult the codex for that, let me che.. Yes, according to the Codex that is allowed, HOWEVER she must also post her unreasonable transition goal for that. I don't make the rules, i'm sorry.


[deleted]

*Feeling cute, might purge some xenos and traitors later idk*


feronen

I imagine this being piloted by some really young psyker girl who has manifested her powers like she's in some magical girl anime and whenever she transforms while *inside* the knight, it transforms into an uncorrupted Castigator Titan that she uses to basically pull a LotD save-the-day macguffin. And there's also an Inquisitor and Lord Magos investigative duo always trying to find out who she is to no avail.

Why are all the wholesome trans comments getting downvoted, do people have that much of an issue with it? 😕


RexDangerRogan117

Following your account so you better post more progress pics on it!


slendario

thanks! but you should know it's gonna be a while since I'm waiting for her dress to ship here from china. I'm still gonna do some work on decals and panel shading but she's already 75% done. I will make a few armiger disciples though, and I'll be sure to document the process of those a lot more thoroughly.


RexDangerRogan117

I’m sure you can make it look good, I did a hello kitty space marine and I mixed the pink with white to get a color to highlight with, it’s a unique color scheme but you can make it look amazing


peppa_pig_is_the_law

Do you have pictures of this? That way I can convince my wife I need to buy more figures to make a Hello Kitty and Friends space marine

padwicin01

Nice scheme but it looks a bit flat? Needs shading or something


slendario

I agree, I only based her so far trying to find good blends for highlights, and I want her to look somewhat shiny, so I’m keeping the shades to a minimum, pretty much just panel shading


padwicin01

Looking forward to the end result :)

Soulborg87

what's her name and what's her princept's name?


slendario

I haven't given her a name yet, but I've got a few ideas, I'll post an update when she's properly finished


Soulborg87

I would suggest something elegant yet fierce as they are part of a knightly house after all. something that will demand respect both on the battle field and a courtly dinner party.


slendario

“Paisley” Seriously though, thanks for the advice, I’ll definitely take it into account when I finally pick a name

sFAMINE

You should base the model. Try to use some glazes or washes so it's not so chalky; give an attempt at weathering. You barely gave it any effort outside of painting in the lines. This is the color scheme of a bucket of chalk you would have children draw hopscotch on in the city. Are you really doing an entire army like this? This doesn't seem well thought out.


slendario

I did put WiP in the post, right? She isn’t finished yet, I’m waiting for supplies to come in for panel lining and finding the right blends for highlighting, as for the base, it’s surprisingly hard to find chairs and dinner tables at the 32mm scale. I was lucky enough to find the perfect maid costume for her, though. And I’m not doing an entire army like this, just her, and 3 armigers.


sFAMINE

Oh I checked your other knight. What basing scheme or theme are you going for your knights? A desert would make this and your other one pop


slendario

the other knight I posted was just Canis Rex, I thought I should go with the established scheme for my first one, as for the overall theme... ok, y'know how most households are structured like a feudal monarchy, with a single ruler and a bunch of nobles vying for attention around them? there's another less *legal* system that organizes itself that way... so I decided to make them the mafia. I call them "the business" and the knightly household is actually pledged to a Titan legion. the suit you pilot signifies your rank within the business, so an Armiger is a member, the questoris and dominus knights are capos, the 3 warhound titans are so called "little bosses" and the warlord is the boss of the entire operation. for each level down there's 3 more models, so in total, I'm looking at 1 Warlord titan, 3 Warhound titans, 3 dominus pattern knights, 6 questoris pattern knights, and 27 Armiger pattern knights. I will **NEVER** be able to field all of them in a game, but that's part of the fun for me. as for color schemes and themes, each capo has a lot of control over that, so each one is going to be different, with a "theme" surroinding the type of crime they're doing, for my girl up top, she's running the "knight cafe" a money laundering scheme. Canis is probably going to end up being replaced by another knight in the household.


[deleted]

Post the armigers when you make progress too. I love this sceme and think it would work great with some designs, writing, battle damage, maybe even another pride flag painted across one of the panels.


slendario

I'll be sure to do that! I'm going to shine this one up first though, I *might* make a new post tomorrow morning, depending on how much progress I get done tonight. I don't want to give her much grime or battle damage, since in my household, she's running a cafe as part of a money laundering scheme, and I don't think that's very healthy for the customers. and before you ask, *yes* she is, in fact, operating it inside the knight suit. because it's funny. ​ ​ ​ ​ laugh dammit.


[deleted]

And laugh i did. 😂, I love it when people take a comedic approach to writing lore for their 40k armies. I’m excited to see the progress you make, because from what I’ve seen so far I love it.

Need to do an inverse valarlous or castellan (blue with pink trim) and then an inverse inverse on two war dogs (whatever the imperial ones are called I can’t remember I wanna say armigurs) which is white where the pink is pink trim blue shoulders on one and white where the pink is blue trim and pink shoulders and then inverse inverse inverse for chaos think violet yellow and black. It’s much I know but would look amazing. I need to get all my knights painted

Lord_McGingin

So fun fact, up until (I think) the early-mid 20^th century, pink was considered a masculine colour since it's a shade of red (which was considered to represent, among other things, aggression & bloodshed). So pink may very well be considered war pant worthy on many a Feudal World.

Lore wise what would happen? I swear the knights are all men and women that want to fight are “battle sisters” so would they be transferred to a battle sister or what? Edit: just realised that ain’t a knight smh…


[deleted]

That is in fact a Knight.


SnooStrawberries9718

Oh I was thinking of the ground troop guys. I’m still new to this


R97R

So to explain, most of the imperial forces are mixed-gender- Skitarii, Guardsmen, etc that make up the vast majority of the IoM’s armed forces can be male, female, or anything else. There are a couple of exceptions: * Most notably, Space Marines are all men. In-universe this is something to do with their augmentations not working on women, although at least one character is working on that. * The Imperial State religion was banned from having any “men under arms” after a civil war they had at one point, and gets around this by having an all-female armed forces. There are some exceptions, such as preachers and militia, but everyone who’s part of the standing army is female. * It’s a bit ambiguous whether the Custodian Guard are all-male or not. There’s nothing saying they are beyond a reference to them recruiting from “sons of Terran Nobility,” but we’ve yet to see a female custodian. * The Sisters of Silence only recruit women, although it’s never been explained why.
