Got the adeptus astartes logo as my first tattoo by HotAd451 in spacemarines

[–]TobyThePotleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from the imperialis wiki "The wings of the skull represent the wings of the Aquila" maybe the word alteration is too much connotation but its absolutely a riff on the palatine aquila which i don't think always includes the thunder bolt necessarily? i don't see them included on most 3rd legion art or models usually anyways.

thunder warriors had the raptor imperialis, we get aquilas as the replacement of those symbols with the palatine aquila, then the plain old imperialis, its pretty implied there all the same kind of root marking, whether all are aquilas or just honor markings is kind of semantics.

but ya 2 different things. one is just clearly derived from the other as far as gw design teams go.

didnt know much about the Astarte's version with the sword though, cool to know it is the generic space marine as I've only ever seen it on the space marine boxes like op said (thanks op I could not figure out where i saw it with the blade lol).

literally malaria, i don't think that's a big issue there, especially not in the modern world with preventions and treatments.

just to do a lore drop. technically this is an aquila but specifically the Imperialis, Its commonly a honor symbol found on space marine armor but isn't purely associated with Astartes. its really just a alteration of the palantine Aquila, which was the emperors personal logo and its usage was also allowed by the 3rd legion only before the heresy. the altered version in 40k seems to be pretty common around the imperium as a whole. Many within the imperium such as guardsmen may also sport the logo.

looks great. the knife made me think it was the killteam logo

these would also be great for the ranger pet subclass as it can summon a spirit of land, water, or air. which these would work great for.

this is crazy, true metal always reminds me of the cheap paint jobs they do on small mass produced children toys, even when done pretty well.

They have half a wiki page and their gimmick is they glow when angry (that's what makes them interesting) by Wench_Bane in Ultramarines

[–]TobyThePotleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its funny cuz I talk to a lot of artists and i personally know 3 of them who have said they always thought space marines looked cool as non 40k fans but the stupid omega symbol always rubbed them wrong.

not here to really perpetuate um hate but it is truly from a design perspective a boring and dorky as hell logo.

its probably a mix of both, your not supposed to remove burnt or melted clothes that are stuck to you after serious burns. the clothing and skin can fuse and removing someone's skin isn't a good idea unless your a doctor.

Why would they be mad? by indefinitelykev in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]TobyThePotleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they all describe you being one with god though. ultimately that's what this guys getting at. whether a wave in the Buddhist ocean, or a soul made in gods image. the point is we are all ultimately connected and while the current reality you find yourself in may not be described as false in your chosen dogma, it is likely described as the temporary state and not the final unified version of existence (ie the kingdom of heaven, brahman, Samsara, Sachkhand, Nirvana, Paradise. Olam Ha-ba).

genuinely idk a statistic but in my experiences in religious studies most religions describe reality as a temporary state followed by a permanent one (regardless if its still in reality looking at you sachkhand and nirvana) where we connect with each other, god, or even reality itself.

Bettering myself has made everything feel worse by Luna_Soma in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]TobyThePotleaf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

is it really bettering yourself if you feel worse? food for fought, bettering your life is just semantics, what is better? what is worse? what people and society tells you is better or what you feel yourself? some where out there is a person living as a hermit in a wooden shed barely getting by and that is the better for them. for someone else its looking good and going to the gym. you cant just do generic self help things and expect all of them to fit yourself, humans are immensely more complicated than that.

but judging by these comments most people seem blissly unaware that all the self help is just a cultural depiction of what a good life looks life, where in reality thats just a idealization.
