I like it. But to see if it really works someone needs to try it and post pics. That guys pics up there is a good start.

I don't think you need to model evil boobies. I think there would be enough room in the power armor as it is. Just give them female faces (Eldar?).

To the OP:

I should have just posted this handy chart of acceptable mythos combinations in 40k:



Other acceptable combos include space marine + vikings, emo monks, slugs, robots, samurai, cowboys, ferrets, snot, bears, indians, cucumbers, transgendered dominatrixeseses, mongols, celts and yogurt.

But no wimmen, That's silly.

It' s the one combo that seems to cause fansboys to just freak. I've never understood why...

I will laugh my ass off if the 40k MMO has Space Marines with the 'female' gender option.


Further: yes, evil bosoms are unnecessary, though you'll have to greenstuff the legs. Women have wider hips, after all.

Because since day one it's the *one* thing not possible, and has remained that way ever since?

Except it wasn't because GW released Female Space Marines back in the day. Despite being stamped and packaged as space marines (some apologists claim that this was a mistake by GW. In reality, this was GW unloading surplus from the Adventurers line) there are still people who insist that they don't exist.

As long as I can get my sexy ork gurlz I'll be happy!

You'll also have to file them down about 1/4 of the way so they look 5'7".

Since these "apologists" also claim that they were repackaged as "female adventurers" once the mistake was made, how are they wrong again?

LOL Orky, for the same reason that they're Eldar, not Melnibonéans. Further, they continued to package them as space marines after they stopped selling the Adventurers line.

I don't get your reference, but I'll take your word for it.

When GW lost the license to produce minis based on the Elric saga, the Melnibonéans got recycled as elves and early Eldar.

It's one of the reasons that Chaos has that eight pointed star. GW did a lot of recycling old molds at that point.

Ah, I knew the star was Moorcock's. I didn't know they were tied so closely, though.

I just looked through the entire Melnibonean line--and don't recognize a single one that even remotely ended up "recycled" as Elves or Eldar.

GW likes to sweep things like that and female space marines under the rug.

I still recall the first time I had this argument with someone, I was actually holding one of the two female space marines (which was stamped on the slotta base 'space marine') which ended in my opponent claiming 'There is No Spoon."







Do the guys in the helmets look familiar to anyone else?

Still waiting for particular models...

See post above.

Put calvelryman 18's axe arm on 16's body and give him a new horse and you have Dolear Silverhelm.

Of course, all of these are Jes Goodwin sculpts.

So your evidence is an elf with an axe means it's "reusing old molds"?

By that logic, an Imperial Guardsman with a shotgun is reusing the Judge Dredd molds.

Yeah, if the only difference between the gaurdsman and dread was that the gaurdsman had judge hershy's arm and was sitting on the bit cit judges bike, yes. They flat out sold them as high elves for a while without changing the molds at all.

From the Dedication of the 1st Ed Warhammer, 2nd Printing: 'Dedicated to Michael Moorcock, whose fault it all is!'



16 (Elric) loses Stormbringer for one of the axes and a different shield, and gets a very slight helmet re sculpt (the face inside the helmet is even the same). Instant high elf.


However, we're getting seriously OT here.

in the grim darkness of the 40th millennium there is only index astartes sexism

Well i banged tis one out in a hurry , hope it helps :

Basis for the body :



Backpack w. kitty ornament and fairy wings :



Familiar, pikachu style ( the bane of loyalists ) :



It's a LOL anyhow.

Following thread. This marine looks interesting. I think I'll claim I'm interested in the familiar. The breasts have nothing to do with it.

Yeah.......

Anyway, I just hate when threads go to pointless discussions. So it's unfluffy. So what.
Dude just wanted a concept and never underestimate the warping power of Chaos.
One day you're a guy, then Tzeench comes along and says it's time for a change.

If a serious view is wanted, I will provide.

Slannesh gave some of his followers Chaos Spawn wangs. I think Slannesh would be happy enough put on some boobs.

Secondly, it's a new experience for a marine, and that's what Slanneshi live for. I can imagine a Noise Marine going to Fabius and requesting a sex change. If we can do it nowadays, Fabius can do it in 40,000 years.

@ Thompie12: Female Chaos Marines is a great idea, whatever some naysayers may object! Who cares if it's "possible"or not? 40k isn't possible anyway! The most important point is that THERE IS MATERIAL FOR A STYLISH ARMY!!!! You probably had some concept in mind when posting this thread, so now, please, SHOW US SOMETHING!!!

By the way, I'm not fond of sculpting boobs on a breastplate, just modify the breastplate to make it a little more prominent. And for the head, there are enough female heads available (not talking of all those ridiculous ponytails CSMs seems to like so much).

So now, do it!!!

It's power armor. It can do anything.

As I said, it's a 15 min. job and just a koncept. I'll sculpt the head and the rest tomorrow.
Besides bigger is better, right?

That's why she needs a power armor!!!

There are some really good femal marine models hidden on Dakka somewhere, if I remember the name of the person who posted them, I will post some links to them.

There was also another set of fluff (possibly by the same user) who had some justification for self sustaining female marine populations (which was actually pretty cool and interesting) where the females were altered by a Mr F. Bile to grow the extra organs (or organs which do the same things) from birth by manipulating their DNA. These genes were then made dominant so that all their children were female with the same extra organs, etc etc until the whole population could eventually be female marines.

They were geneticaly programmed to take on the looks of the native population (such as skin colour etc) with each generation, and to develop to the local ideal of beauty. They remained mostly dormant, perhaps even going several generations without actively knowing their purpose, and then at some trigger signal, they would take up arms and kick bottom to prepare the way for a chaos invasion.

Specialised power armour etc would be dropped down to them (as they were obviously not as huge as normal marines but would be normal human sized) , as well as weapons etc.

Over the course and after the invasion, they would be scooped up by their commanding sisters and properly armed and armoured etc.

Generally no, bigger is more painful.

Now that I really think about this, I don't really see the point in female Space Marines, but if that's what you want to do, I would model the boobies so they look like armor, not just like there's an opening in her armor where they can just hang out. That was kinda awkward to say....

I think the main thing to get is the head. Boobs on the model make no sense in my head. That would be like having a giant cod piece on the male marines.
I says go for it.
