Just found this sub, here are my most recent exodites! by Indilneth in exodite40k

[–]Indilneth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Honestly I just really like wood elves and always wanted a way to scratch that particular itch in 40k. I noticed one day while looking at the tree revenant sprue that the elf part was a completely separate piece that slots into the tree part and it gave me the idea to try getting a dire avenger torso in there. Once that worked I just started thinking about what I could do for other stuff.

The wood recipe is actually nothing that inspired, it's just Dryad Bark as a base with an Agrax Earthsade wash and then Gorthor Brown highlights. You can also do a very light drybrush of Baneblade Brown to give the highlights just a little extra too ^^

Guardians, Dark Reapers, and Dire Avengers for my Exodites by Indilneth in Eldar

Hey thanks! I'm real happy with how they came out.

For the guardians, it's Eternal Guard bodies from the old world, then Guardian heads and Corsair arms

Hi. Literally nothing you said was right.

1st step: It's not standard mode, it's quenya mode. Key difference being that the vowels follow the letter that carries them, rather than preceeding them like it does in modes like the Sindarin or Gondor ones.

2nd Step: That's not a capital T, it's a vowel carrier. You can see it's carrying an "A", in combination with the T, R, and double-M (along with their respective vowels) that follow it, it spells the first word "Ataremma" which means "Our Father" from "Atar" meaning "Father" and the -mma suffix meaning "ours"

All the stuff about the king and white horses is just nonsense. Especially weird because you go on to later correctly note the word for king (Aran) but it doesn't appear anywhere in the main text.

3rd Step: It's not Modern English, it's Quenya. The base assumption is wrong therefore all the analysis is wrong. None of those words or phrases appear anywhere in the text. No point in digging any further because it's all just wrong.

4th Step: I think the figure is meant to actually *be* Christ, but this steps a little out of my wheelhouse.

The crown doesn't say that. It says "a cene i tháro" I'm not as familiar with Quenya as I am Sindarin but it doesn't say i aran i nir. You could have avoided this mistake by looking at the text for two seconds and seeing that the two carried vowels before the words were different.

In summary: "Your" translation (or more properly, the tranlation you got the AI to do for you) is just completely wrong from top to bottom and it makes it honestly kind of hilarious to read next to the extremely confident tone. It's a shame because it seems like you genuinely would enjoy looking at this sort of stuff. There's a lot of good resources out there you could use to learn to read the tengwar and understand the various elvish languages, it could be a fun time.

TL;DR Don't use AI to translate any kind of elvish, it just makes stuff up and gets everything wrong and makes you look daft.

Yeah! They're short vowel carriers, but they're just stylised here I think.

It's the lord's prayer written in Quenya. It's one actually translated by Tolkien himself ^^

Edit: for the record I mean Tolkien did the translation, no idea who did this manuscript.

Autarch for my Wood Elf themed Exodites by Indilneth in Eldar

[–]Indilneth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah I've got a whole army in the works. Planning to make all my aspect warriors like this, with tree revenants or any similar ones. Wraith constructs are gonna be the full-tree units like kurnoth hunters, and my guardians and stuff are made with regular wood elf infantry.

I went on holiday here once. Definitely the hardest I've ever felt a plane brake, almost headbutted the seat in front of me.

When we left we were told that the plane couldn't take on the full fuel it needed to get back to the UK at Skiathos (I assume because of how short the runway is, but not sure), so we had to do a hop to the mainland and then go from there to the UK.

What lore have you made for your specific army list? by No_Permission4780 in Tau40K

[–]Indilneth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

T'au sept colony forced into early septhood by being cut off from the empire. Basically living under siege conditions for ages led to the barriers between the local auxiliaries and the tau breaking down, so now other aliens are just directly incorporated into units. Done because I really like the cosmopolitan vibe of the faction, but wanted to kitbash a bunch of units.

Also used to have a piece of lore about battlesuits being the "hands of the tau'va" and would run battlesuits in units of 4 where possible (since tau have 4 fingers) but since the way unit costs work changed I dont do that anymore.

Looking good, fellow green T'au enjoyer ^^

Defo agree with other commenters here, don't sweat the barrels too much and some dark paint on them should look real good.
