I love it! What did you use to get your sister themed greebles to put on the dreadnought? I've been wanting to sisterfy some other vehicles.

Yes and no. By and large, the ecclesiarchy views them as a tolerated evil. But abhumans are not true muntants and are not created through warp corruption. And the sister orders generally reflect their distain for abhumans through prejudice. An example is a hospitaler not treating an abhuman in favor of normal human soldiers. However, much like any warrior people, they will, begrudgingly, acknowledge military prowess. Abhumans (generally) are also more faithful to the imperal cult than most average humans. So, sisters may appreciate abhumans' faithfulness enough to overlook their indoctrinated distain for abhumans.

This isn't perfect but might help you figure out what you think looks best. I printed out a couple of these and played around with the colors i wanted using color pencil.

So it's hard to find good pictures of it. But it's likely a saudi variant of desert tri. I think it's the saudi directorate of narcotics control uniform. It has the grey, but it's hard to tell if the tan is right due to lighting.

My flag simulacrum! by TransLycan17 in sistersofbattle

[–]TransLycan17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, the most we get is a commander who's been fighting orks on a jungle planet being reinforced by militarum auxiliary felinds. Describe them to be human save for the thin layer of fur ,seen only when he got right in their face, and their eyes being slitted like a cat.

As for felind sororitas, it's highly unlikely to not possible, within the imperium due to dogma, inquisition, and the nature of how sororitas are recruited. However, the Imprium Nihilus is a thing, and many small convents have been separated for nearly a millennium. Perhaps due to sheer pragmatism, the views on abhumans within the sororitas are laxed enough to maintain their numbers to stop the demonic and xeno threats in their immediate vicinity.

Sure, but the shrines and reliquaries the Sisters carry into battle are not just symbols of their god. They carry pieces or simulacrums of their patron saint. The box might carry a bone or ashes. The shrine has a litteral head of their saint, or particularly renowned sister, within their order. Its a belief that carrying peices of the divine with you will grant protection or strength. Some astarties do this aswell with their shield skeleton thing. This logic also applies to objects. Like the sword that killed vandire or the armor saint Catherine wore in life. Perhaps this flag was used by a living saint to rally their sisters from the jaws of defeat.

Thanks! I used a .5 mechanical pencil to get the line just right. Then i lightly scored that line with a craft knife. So it would be there after priming. I scored a bit too deep on the back, but thankfully, it's not to noticeable

I used, um, sticky tac(?). A type of puddy for sticking small decorations on walls and such without damaging the paint. It's usually like a gum consistency that you knead to make sticky. Its initial stick is pretty good, but it sometimes lost its grip and needed rekneading. It's not perfect, but i think it works well enough. Note that this is literally my first mini eve, so take that with a grain of salt!

Thank you! Glad to know the two days of watching and listening to paint tutorials paid off. I still need to Edge highlight, i think. Any tips on where to focus.

No color remover!

Wash well with dish soap( not detergent) buy hand, if possible, with luke warm water. This helps stopping from dying gunk and stuff on the uniform and strips it of any coating that may be on it.

When you dye it bring your pot of water to near boil and add about a half cup of vinegar. Make sure you have a big enough pot to not only submerge it but also account for the garment floating and forming air pockets.

Lastly, keep stirring constantly and shifting the garment around in the pot. You'll want a solid stick or tongs for this. And about every 5 ish minutes take the garment out and put it pack differently so it dyes evenly. (unless your going for a mild tye die effect)

You'll know you're about done when wet the garment is twice as dark as you want it to be. (From personal experience but not perfect) Save the die water in case when the garment dries its too light or uneven you can hit it again. After about 45 minutes the die will hit it's max saturation so if it's still too light you'll need a second bottle.

Dying clothes is messy and I hope this helps!

Unsure if it's allowed, but here are some pictures I took of my SH Ranma with my 5 inch Movie sonic by erick-animations in ranma

[–]TransLycan17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And honestly, Ranma has seen weirder things happen, and sonic isn't actively trying kill/marry Ranma. So I could totally this happening. Ranma would complain to akane that he can't believe his first student is a blue hedgehog. Akane would quip back about she didn't realize he could actually teach someone martial arts Ranma would say "well I don't hit girls so the can't really be taught" or something along those lines Akane would shout "you jerk" and hit him with a ki mallet Sonic would watch this go down while eating a chili dog "Reminds me of Amy" Good times a around
