I Registered On Tumblr Three Long Years Ago And Never Posted Anything. So, What Will My First Post Be

"The Witch Hunters"

Finally finished my old spontaneous art: Lord Inquisitor from the Ordo Hereticus and his bodyguard - Sister of Battle from the Order of the Bloody Rose.

Wanted to try something John Blanche/Adrian Smith-like.

Feel free to reblog on Tumblr. Don't post on other social media without my consent, thank you!

A generic straight manly man: "Ew, I hate Tumblr/Twitter! There're icky woke girls/queers who draw gay shit and spoil muh trad Warhammer!"

Also this man: *steals their arts, memes and funny pictures, posts it on Reddit/Pinterest/uses them for his videos on YT w/o credit or consent, because he can't create anything that cool himself*

Random bro: *Looks at my page* Ew you're on Tumblr.

The same random bro when one of his friends repost all of my memes: OMGGGG🤣🤣🤣🤣I LOVE THIS🤣🤣🤣🤣GENIUS😭😭🤣🤣🤣IM DYINGGGGGG💀💀💀💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I WISH THERE WERE MORE LIKE THIS😭😭😭😭😭WHERE CAN I FIND THESE I LOVEE THESEEEE🤣🤣🤣

Here is a sea serpent Fulgrim on Mermay!

Since Fulgrim's foster father Coryn named him after the water-bringer god of Chemos, I think this image really suits him!

The theme of water, in fact, appears several times in the Emperor's Children history. According to Telemachon Lyras, an entire race of spirits once lived in the oceans of Chemos:

“Chemosian legend tells us that our world once had seas and oceans, in an age when Chemos’s sun burned bright enough to inspire a wealth of life. The Nayad were a species of water spirits charged with watching over the oceans. They sang to the beasts of the deepest waters, and their songs soothed our world’s soul. When their music finally came to an end, the oceans dried up and the sun grew darker in the dusty heavens. Chemos itself mourned the loss of their songs.”

Not to mention the fact that Fabius named his daughter Melusine - just like the mermaid/lamia-like spirit of fresh water from European folklore.

“omg you’re so creative. how do you get your ideas” i hallucinate a single scene in the taco bell drive thru and then spend 13 months trying to write it

Me, re-reading novels about genocidal batshit crazy transhuman war criminals for the nth time, because it helps me take my mind off reality for at least a couple of hours:

I have an intense love/hate relationship with Lucius. I really like him as a character, but as a person? Oh boy, even my heretical Slaaneshi arse can't forgive what he did to my poor sweet boys Saul and Solomon. This was too low even for a traitor. And the fact that Tarvitz actually loved this bastard to the very end ripped my heart to shreds.

I found this excerpt in the Liber Hereticus:

Yes, Saul's last thoughts were of Lucius, and the latter's betrayal caused Tarvitz the worst pain he had ever felt.

No, I definitely didn't take 4th degree emotional damage from a couple of sentences, haha, ofc not...

A little bit about myself: She/her, 22 y.o., aroace. English is not my native language, but I try to hone my skills in it!

Self-taught traditional artist, I work in experimental technique: basically use every material I can find. If I suddenly get inspired, I can draw my art on some ugly piece of paper. A bad habit that I'm trying to wean myself from.

Drawing has been my passion since childhood, but due to the fact that I first prepared for exams at school, and then spent 5 years at medical university, I put my hobby on hold for a long time.

I spend a lot of time on my work and have a very poor health (ironically), but I'll try to upload something new as often as possible!

My favorite fandoms: J. R. R. Tolkien's Legendarium, M. Moorcock's Elric novels, The Elder Scrolls, The Witcher, Baldur's Gate, Soulsborne, Dragon Age & Mass Effect, DnD & R. A. Salvatore's novels, varioud oldschool sci-fi/fantasy/horror anime/films/series.

For now, Warhammer 40K is my main passion, but I'll definetely draw something else too!

I'm currently trying to write fanfiction. I also suffer with my historical novel about English Civil War (I'm a horrible Anglophile).

I can sometimes post my thoughts, excerpts from the books or a random meme.

I just stumbled upon the Sexypedia, trying to find out who tf Miguel O'Hara was (turns out the Spider Man fella, but it doesn't matter).

AND HEAR ME OUT!

There is no Fulgrim! NO. FULGRIM.

I found Sanguinius, Konrad and Magnus (fair enough), but not the unbelievably hot shapeshifting snek man? Really..?

That's it, I'm calling the Dark Prince rn. Your Sexypedia is not sexy enough.

“The Radiant was beautiful. Not handsome, but beautiful. Perfection had rendered his features almost androgynous.

He turned towards them, his eyes burning like miniature suns. He leaned forward, setting his boots on the deck. He wore what had once been a suit of Crusade-pattern power armour. Shaggy white fur was wrapped about his greaves and the vambraces of his gauntlets. His chest-plate had been decorated with a grotesque mural depicting Fulgrim’s moment of apotheosis. One of his shoulder-plates had become fused and twisted into the shape of a leering feminine face. The face whispered softly as the Radiant rose to his feet.

A daemon slid past him, tittering. He took the claw it proffered and they spun in a brief, courtly dance. The daemon clicked its fangs in disappointment as he brought its claw to his lips for a kiss of polite dismissal.”

－ Fabius Bile: Primogenitor, Josh Reynolds

P. S. Working on all these microscopic details was hellish and took many hours, but hey, one of the most imposing Chaos Lords ever deserves no less!

I remembered some funny (in a bad way) things that ppl constantly wrote in r/40kLore, when I still used my Reddit account. This community has always been a treasure trove of cringe.

BEHOLD, THE OVERUSED DISCUSSION, EVERYONE IS SO TIRED OF: "DO THE SPACE MARINES HAVE SEX?"

Not only these guys brought up this topic every month, but they typed such idiotic things that I wanted to hit my head on the table.

My favorites:

1) "Space Marines don't have balls/genitals, they're basically smooth Ken dolls."

By the Dark Gods, where did they even get that from... And who then are their smooth Barbies?!

2) "They're sterile, so they can't have sex."

I think I studied some wrong things in medical university for 5 years. How can you confuse "sterile" with "impotent"? "Sterile" men can't have children - not sex! And yes, Astartes are canonically unable to conceive.

3) "Even Slaaneshi CSMs are not interested in sex, only in killing and torture."

Lots of excerpts from various novels and other lore bits where they're described having sex/relationship with each other, daemons and their slaves - are we a joke to you? Or do these guys need detailed E-rated scenes to understand it?

The self-proclaimed lore messiahs also love to say: "Slaanesh is not about sex! Stop constantly talking about it!"

The joke is - I almost never saw anyone who would say that, but, again, this topic was brought up constantly. Basically purists' neuron activation posts.

Damn, Slaanesh IS about sex AND other things (torture, art, music: excesses and hedonism in everything) too! But some people outright try to exclude this specific aspect when it's absolutely wrong. Because "no s*x in my Christian incel fantasy, no-no, sir!"

One person typed that Kasperos Telmar, aka The Radiant King, had "harem" of daemon "courtesans" and mentioned his "lovers".

This is where I died: some prude answered this person that "it was not specified that The Radiant did anything sexual with them!"

OF COURSE, YOU DO NOTHING SEXUAL WITH YOUR HAREM OF HOT BOVINE-CRUSTACEAN-WOMEN! THEY WERE JUST PLAYING REGICIDE UNDER THE BLANKET! EVERY CHAOS LORD DOES IT, WDYM?
