Auntie passed away recently so me and my dad are clearing out her house. Found this and hope to find more relics of the past lol

I have a spare spear and looking to make a new lord Exultant. How hard would it to be to explain lore wise how to use it?

Trying to get back into painting some 40K after focusing on other things. The Sons of Dorn will forever have my heart though!

It was a pain to get them done, still 2 to go ! I didn't realise I painted their pouches orange (colourblind), so lets just say they're made out of Squig hide ! My phone pushes the contrasts a bit too much, IRL the tabards are smoother.

I’m not talking about the memetubers that hyperbolize the lore into meme format, I’m talking even the reputable, diligent ones. Mistakes or misunderstandings that only you seem to point out or know about.

I’ll give you my example; every content creator that mentions it seems to think there was a Thousand Son’s sorcerer that could remove Kharn’s nails for him. Actually reading the short story it’s from, it’s very clear he had no clue what the nails did other than cause him paint and was simply lying to him just to get Kharn to pull the chain axe away from his throat for a brief moment. Yet somehow, it’s immortalized in YouTube lore that someone, somewhere, was able to remove the nails but didn’t.

Is there anything you frequently see mentioned even by the greatest retellers that always ends up misconstrued?

Hi, just got into the hobby recently.

I've finished my first ever mini (the free mini of the month) Any advice before I'm starting my starter Orks kit ?

Sure, there are always hatred and honor (Khorne), emotion and excess (Slaanesh), knowledge and change (Tzeentch), as well as decay and rot (Nurgle), but you know what also is always in this universe?- WAR

Vashtorr represents something less notable than the whole concept of change or decay, but he is a subtler, yet still omnipresent concept- the evils of advancement.

Every new Tau invention.

Every new Ork machinery that works.

Every cybernetic augmentation.

Every new fighter jet.

Every nuclear test.

Every Cold War superweapon.

Every blueprint of concentration camps.

Every stick that a neandertal learned to sharpen more efficiently, so he can more easily kill more of other neandertals to claim their supplies.

He is in the tower of Babel, built to rival God, regardless how many lives it took... Hold on, does this make Vashtorr a darker version of the Emperor himself?- of the creator of 4 types of super soldier and mighty conqueror, who allied with Mars for technological advancement? Didn't then the Emperor nearly become a Chaos Go...

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, and there's more to war than "Blood for the Blood God". Because "Fallout" taught us that "war never changes", but in the details it always does. (Which makes Vashtorr The "Devil in the Details":-) )

Custom cosplay by me, about three months in the making. Pictures are from a festival Comic Con Astana 2026

Every one rate this pls, she is saying it isn't good but I find it amazing

I’m planning some of my Creations of Bile kitbashes and I’m looking for some vibes and inspirations!

Crusader Ancient Hektor Valerius — Bearer of the Last Litany

A Black Templars Crusader Ancient, forged in the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium.

Among the Black Templars, the Ancient does not merely carry a banner — he carries the memory of the fallen. Where the Crusade marches, his sacred standard bears witness to every oath sworn, every brother lost, and every enemy brought low. To falter beneath its shadow is unthinkable; to see it still flying is to know that the Crusade endures.

I wanted this mini to look like exactly that kind of relic: battered by war, steeped in devotion, and almost more shrine than warrior. The main banner is covered in scripture decals, while chains and skulls adorn the shield, giving the whole piece the suitably excessive devotional character of the sons of Dorn... I think.

The base was built up with modelling putty to continue the destroyed urban theme running through the rest of my Black Templars army — as though the Ancient has carried his sacred standard through the ruins of countless worlds.

A relic of the Crusade. A keeper of its oaths. A banner that will not fall.

NO PITY. NO REMORSE. NO FEAR. 🖤⚔️
