Blackarmor_redtruth Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 "All that's left" is pretty powerful, even if I question why she would have such a relationship with a SM. I think Servant of Dante is pretty brave, posting their own work up. It is often easy to put up some of the stuff inspired by and done by what often appears to be professional artists. You have your story and your bringing art into it, that is wonderful and a braver thing than what I would ever do. Good on you. The golden eyes are cool but yeah, heretic was the first thing I thought too. But, good argument on purple eyes so I guess I have to put my inferno pistol to the side as well. These are all so great, that they inspire all of these works, keeps a community strong.

Willy Pete Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Maybe it's something like Wolf and Sister on the Space Wolves site. In that one a brother and sister were separated, one became a Space Wolf and the other a Sister of Battle. Eventually they met up again. He died in battle, and she vowed to carry on his memory, if I recollect correctly.

Servant of Dante Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) I literally stumbled upon this on Deviantart: http://pre13.deviantart.net/6803/th/pre/i/2012/327/b/0/ch_sister_eris_by_elizaveta_bikuin-d5lxens.jpg Yes, she has heels, yes, it has an anime-esque vibe, but I still like it. Eidt: Woah, and what kind of gun is that?! It looks like an autogun, not a Godwyn-De'az Bolter!

Willy Pete Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Ran out of bolter ammo, no resupply yet, but impatient to kill the rest of the heretics so she picked up what was laying around. Better to use the Holy Trinity of course, but a dead heretic is a dead heretic, no matter how you kill them. Right?

Grgobart Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Looking at that gun, who else of you is reminded of their House Esher, Necromunda Gang models, they once bought to use as either Fratris Militia or Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, for the sole reason of keeping their Sisters Army all female?

Willy Pete Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Yeah, best powered armor in the galaxy, (even better than Marine armor because it provides equal protection with less bulk and weight,) and almost all of them leave their most vulnerable part exposed. Faith in the Emperor is all well and good, but helmets ain't bad either. Especially with all the communications and auto senses that are built into it.

Faith in the Emperor is all well and good, but helmets ain't bad either. Especially with all the communications and auto senses that are built into it. It comes without the plot armour, mind. I guess plenty of Sisters don't realise this, and hence they leave the helmets off.

Spacefrisian Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) But seeing the face will instill a sense of calm to the lowly guardsmen the Battle Sisters will fight alongside from time to time (just like seeing the friendly face of an Astartes will do the same to the guardsmen). See there is a tactical use to wearing no helmet. And in the 41st millenium no one shoots at the head anyway due to a gentlemen agreement....except for that filthy dishonorable assassin who shot a bullet at Ragnars head which Ragnar simply headbutted making it do nothing but knock him out for 3 or so seconds.

Brother Sefiel Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hi But seeing the face will instill a sense of calm to the lowly guardsmen the Battle Sisters will fight alongside from time to time (just like seeing the friendly face of an Astartes will do the same to the guardsmen). Heh, "friendly face" of a psycho-indoctrinated killing machine...Real-life studies suggest that people are less likely to want to shoot an enemy soldier if they can see said person's face.Not sure that counts for world-devouring alien horrors, monstrous daemons, demented space elves or green fungal chaps, though.

Real-life studies suggest that people are less likely to want to shoot an enemy soldier if they can see said person's face. Makes sense. If you can see their face, more specifically their eyes, then you can make that instinctive human connection and it's psychologically harder to kill another person. Whereas when their eyes are obscured that connection can't be made, therefore you psychologically don't recognise then as human, regardless of whether you know they are or not. It's for the same reason governments at war use propaganda to villanise & dehumanise their enemies, to psychologically ease their people into the idea of their soldiers killing and doing otherwise horrible things to their enemies.

dracpanzer Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Psycho indoctrinated killing machines basically trumps such a study. The ability to classify even space marines as mutants if desired as well as everyone falling into a fitting category be it mutant, witch, alien or heretic. I think the Sisters dont fit into studies about eyes being visible and shooting them. I wouldnt really hold with that study anyways.

Brother Sefiel Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hello again I wouldnt really hold with that study anyways. Personal experience tells me its malarky Personal experience is precisely that, as well, of course. However, it's true to say that it primarily relates to wars fought before professional armed forces became more prevalent, although that is straying too far into real-world stuff for a deeper discussion here. Definately strange. I don't even know. And blue isn't a Sisters color. Any colour is a sisters colour as long as someone paints their models that way.

Servant of Dante Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hum. Yes, I suppose you are right. I was referring to the traditional red and white and black (plus gunmetal and gold, lots of gold), but a Sisters army could be any color.

dracpanzer Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) Personal experience is precisely that, as well, of course.A study about personal experiences isn't? I can say that I have butchered more than an army worth of Sisters models to be able to put helmets on every model in my Sacred Rose army. The Sabbat helm is gorgeous, and I dont fancy having to paint, wash and highlight all those faces and hair on a white model. Hopefully I can get all my other projects done and have them lined up for the 2017 ETL. The first pic of slipstreams post looked at first glance to be facing towards the viewer, on closer inspection she is oriented oddly. Is the one with a bare blue leg possibly a WIP? The red eye seems off too and she has a regular pack with a heavy flamer. I like the pose though.

Why is her armour mismatched in terms of color? http://i.imgur.com/5EGOCjW.jpg I was of the opinion that her right leg and arm are prosthetic (and a different colour for whatever reason). Could be wrong... Definately strange. I don't even know. And blue isn't a Sisters color. I'm not sure where you're getting this from. Sisters are not limited in their colour choices. It's just that there aren't many Orders that use blue around. I think Miko's had blue in hers. I might have to make an Order in blue now just because!
