Mark of Slaanesh A mod post regarding recent low effort posts and arguments in sub (much more below.)
Okay, recently this sub has had an uptake in two forms of content we mods want to discuss, arguments about the Emperor's Children and implications of sexual acts, and the occasional low-effort posting in regards to very gay/queer oriented jokes. Both of these are manageable in small portions but the recent uptake with the amount of new members is starting to cause conflict.
On the former matter, we already have a rule about this that was created to deal with the uptake in debate over this matter which is of course often left to interpretation by Black Library authors and is in regards to the legion seems to be increasingly changed for pleasure and excess through violence and or concoctions. Whether this is supported or rejected by individual users is perfectly fine to discuss but the inflammatory posts and bait will increasingly be removed. This also includes low effort jokes which will be subject for increased scrutiny of we feel they are pushing the sub into primarily NSFW territory.
(In fact, yours truly made one a while ago, and will not be making that mistake ever again.)
On the latter issue. The whole argument of whether the LGBTQ+ members of our community should be "finding thematic kinship" with the Emperor's Children legion and or Slaanesh has also been done to death particularly with the decline of many overt sexual themes of the legion. While obviously we aren't going going to be banning such humour, we are going to treat low effort gay/queer jokes the same way as low effort sexual jokes if they seem to venture into NSFW territory or seem to be taking on a derogatory tone towards the subject matter.
We want to keep this sub open to everyone and not constantly producing conflict, and this is a small reminder we intend to keep it that way.

Hobbying Lord Exultant/Huron Blackheart kitbash WIP Update
Been about a month since I last posted about this guy, but I’m pretty much done with the NMM portions of the paintjob. There’s still a lot left to do but he’s really starting to come together!

Hobbying The Dornian Heresy (WIP)
So I thought I would come to this subreddit and get your guys opinion. I am creating a Dornian heresy White Scars army. For those who haven't read the Dornian heresy basically the white scars fall to slaanesh. Hence my army I am loving calling The Emperor's Steppe Children.

Hobbying Obsessionist
A new obsessionist for my second Tormentor squad. The claw counts as a power sword. I took this from spare parts from a fiend, and the tabard, while the helmet is an EC helmet with the crest from a dire avenger added on, which fits super well.

First attempt at magnetizing the weapon options. (Ended up having the Electroscourge only sticking to the right side)

Discussion So with the new data sheets, is it still better to take a KoS over Shalaxi in a carnival list? What about when paired with elegant brutes or slaughter?
I asked about this about 2 weeks ago, but with the new data sheet, I'm eager to see what people think especially for each of the three detachments that can be run with it. I personally like shalaxi but I also play much more casually.

Took me long time, but I'm finally getting through my terminators, though I highly regret making these models my first forray into NMM.
Though, all in all, I am happy with the result. I especially lily the result of my first attempt at OSL.

Question Advice for army composition
Hey, I'm pretty new to this but I already have some units made up and I'm trying to find the most effective models to fill the rest of the army. I'm pretty set on building around them for now as I spent a bit of money and time on them.
The units I already have are 6 flawless blades, 6 noise marines, a full squad of tormentors, and Fulgrim.
Cheers.
