Lore
>Eldar possess slender bodies that reek of alien grace and swiftness
>Eldar bodies have zero body fat

Art
>Eldar are drawn with full mammary glands and fat big hindquarters

Why do these artists keep getting away this?
>>
Nice source you got there
>>
It's either just the suits and these are not fat, but muscles. Completely normal looking eyes and faces annoy me way more.
>>
>>49934710
Eldar codexes and xenology.

For art use goodle
>>
>>49934683
Reason 1: It's fucking hot, lore be damned.

Reason 2: Well-developed glutes can sometimes give the impression of being a fat ass, but are actually massively powerful muscles.

Reason 3: It's very easy to WRITE "The Eldar moved with a level of grace that was clearly distinct to the human eye/The Eldar was possessed of an alien attractiveness - beautiful, but clearly 'other'" and another thing to actually DEPICT it. Creating something that's simultaneously beautiful and graceful as well as alien and disturbing is a difficult task.

I wonder why they changed the Eldar look from ayys to normal elves. Ayys looked neat weird.

Muscles perfectly rounded like a full ass through intentional exercise, and their mammaries are in a permanent state of lactation with full milk glands.

I learned it from the skyrim mod because i wanted to play something 40k and the guy who ran my table top group was out of town. The mod is pretty good. The spess marines are pretty much 2x scale nords with op buffs like double health and 100 armor from the start and poison spit.

It's directly contradicted in one of the codices, as well, as the previous DE dex specifically mentions Hameonculi having non bodyfat, having surgically removed most "useless" parts of their bodies and replaced them with something more fun, like acid and neurotoxins. If no Eldar had bodyfat, it would be rather unnecessary to point that out as one of their body-modifications.

Even putting aside all other considerations about Xenology, the Eldar autopsy specifically came with a "space elf biology is 2deep4us and nothing here should be taken as fact" disclaimer at the end.

>>49935408
>Most people in the lore don't even know it, because when is that ever going to come up

It comes up occasionally in BL novels when relevant.

The Blood Gorgons Chaos Marines escape from a holding cell by spitting through the massive bars over the course of hours.

A captured Raven Guard wishes he had a Betchers Gland when he's being interrogated so he could spit in the face of his interrogator.

A Silver Skull spits in an Orks face and causes it incredible pain.
>>
>>49937983
>From Rogue Trader all the way up to the present.

In the Silver Skulls novel, it specifies a few things:

A. It's only present in about half of all Chapters (or at least only half of the Chapters know they can do it). It is a mutation otherwise lost to most.

B. It's poorly understood, moreso than any other Space Marine mutation, even by Apothecaries. Different Space Marines "utilize" it differently, with some being able to almost immediately recall information, while others having to wait hours or even days before anything comes to them.

C. The information gained in this manner is extremely hit or miss, and the Space Marine has no control over what he learns.

D. This ability is HUGELY stigmatized, even among Chapters that lack a serious aversion to eating human flesh. The overwhelming majority consider this task to be distasteful in the extreme, and will only undertake it in the most necessary of circumstances. Some (such as one of the main characters in the Silver Skulls novel) won't even do it at all.

E. It has to be the brain, preferably the Cerebral Cortex or Brain Stem.

F. In a twist of irony, this ability is actually MORE plausible in the 21st Century than when it was first introduced in Rogue Trader, as memories have been shown to be at least partly "readable" on a non-living brain.

>But they still mostly look like humans, right?
>No, Eldar actually have no body fat, so Eldar women don't have breasts or any ass to appreciate

In reality Eldar are literally just sexy space babes, propaganda simply tells everyone they are uncanny valley so guardsmen don't get sniped by a ranger while trying to fuck an Eldar corpse and Vindicare assassins don't run off with an Eldar whore.

Japan already saturates the fap-market with completely plain elves that you can masturbate to, which, similar to your newdars, have not much to do with their source material and look exactly like humans with pointy ears, these boring and shallow copies.

How long have you guys even been playing? Eldar originally just looked like space elves with wacky hair. The super high cheekbones and black eyes they have in some art are a relatively new addition.

The rest is just fleshing out (Ha. Ha.), but every codex description of the omophagea I've seen, including the current one, only talks about eating the target/victim's meat without naming a specific part. Then we have other BL material in which even merely tasting blood will do, and I'm guessing ADB's not the only one who has it that way - though equally, I wouldn't be surprised if there are yet other stories that make it brain-only. Loose canon or whatever, yay.

Still, while novels may be divided on the matter, the studio version (certainly the earliest and the last several editions) has always lacked the restriction.

OP suffers from severe autism, just like the average eldarfag.

He made this thread in hopes of getting some attention, and I hope he dies in a fire.

As for the subject, Eldar are basically alien elves. Naturally, artists can make them look like more alien or more elvish, or both.
Official art also have marketing purposes, so Eldar can be depicted with more appeal, disregarding the fluff a little bit.

But if are getting triggered by space elf booty, there are artists out there whom draw them with uncanny valley appearance.

lol bro, true capitalism is modern. Up until the end of WW1 we arguably had mercantilism (not quiet capitalism), and then developed true capitalism afterwards (the golden age being after 1945 & the end of WW2, see Bretton woods system).

Communism was developed just after the age of enlightenment, and took place in 1917 (russian revolution). It sucked shit and never got off the ground in nearly ever nation it has been tested in, and the only successful nations it exists in today are teetering on collapse with pseudo fascist governments.

Tau MAY be Authoritarian as fuck, but they are neither fascist nor teetering on collapse.

Lelith is like the number one celebrity in Commorragh, with her personal palace/arena/luxury mansion, and legions of adoring fans. I don't think she'd be the type to walk in places where she'd be liable to step on shit, and if she did she could just get some slaves to crawl in front of her and lick the ground clean.

Dark Eldar are not real Eldar.

Soulstorm says they were twisted by the power of Chaos. They are basically mutants.

I mean, this is somewhat right but at the same time not.

>>49949286
>Dark Eldar are not real Eldar.
Thy are, but they've adapted themselves to life in Commorragh, tend towards the cadaverous even for Eldar and are extremely fond of body modification in a real way, not in a 'imma split my tongue' way.

Storm of Damocles.

It's a novella.

They've been around longer than those craftworlders and are in every way Eldar, especially if they're Trueborns. The only way they're not "true Eldar" is that if they got into a gross amount of bodily modifications as opposed simple cosmetic mutilations like >>49949359 said.

yeah, Khorne is totally okay with Kyras and Sindri being psykers while worshipping his name.

But that's not true at all. Eldar who have forsaken their Psyker abilities and need to torture things to stay alive didn't exist until after the Fall. Craftworlders were traveling away from the Empire just before the Fall. The Kabals having control didn't pop up until two thousand years after the Fall when Vect murdered all the remaining Aristocracies

If anything Chaos was twisted by the Eldar, they were that fucked up.

Tau dont. Their females merely have a different forehead slit

actually yes, he hates them using psyker-stuff not merely being able to.

I wonder if Juan Diaz and Jes Goodwin have something they'd like to tell us.

In the case of the coven models, JG did actually say they're barefoot so they can feel it when they do step in shit, in addition to the Haemonculi's abodes just being really hot.

It's one of his oldest b8s. I'm surprised he's still wheeling it out.

>>49949395
For all the other specimens too.

>>49954710
Maybe it was part of his plan.
>>
>>49954915
Also Sindri actually got eaten by the Maledictum Daemon, so he don't count.

Cheeky bastard.

Plue Haemonculi themselves tend to float above ground, so it's not like they need to wear shoes.

The Haemonculus code is forever "why not?" rather than "why?"

Not to be confused with the Everson code, which is "WRYYYYYYYYY"
>>
>>49950363
For some of them it is, the oldest haemonculi are the original creators of the pleasure cults, they're around 25,000 years old and were literally alive during the height of the Eldar empire.

And a lot of those Kabals are just former noble houses that changed their name and did some minor restructuring to match Vact's new system.

The big difference is that theoretically the Kabals are a meritocracy while in the noble houses power was inherited, but in practice in both cases it boils down to the person in charge being whoever can scheme and backstab their way to the top, and while it might now be theoretically possible for a lowly warrior to rise to an Archon, it's only marginally easier than before the Kabals, as the people on the top have the power to easily get rid of him if he appears to be a threat to their power.

Haemonculi go in for fashion and experimentation, they also like indulging their curiosity and whims.

>>49955505
I really wish they'd release other models for the haemonculi, I don't imagine them as barefoot comb-over degenerates, when I think of haemonculi I think of pic related.
>>
>>49955821
We need more sharp-dressed haemonculi. One of my friends converted his (the older resin one, with the arms outstretched pose) to looks like a circus director, complete with a top hat. They do have the whole "carnival of pain" thing going on, after all.
>>
>>49955872
That'd work too, in fact I bet that could look awesome. Mostly I just want haemonculi that look more sinisterly elegant and unhurried, the current one just doesn't do it for me.

I just go by Goodwin's art.
He is the guy who virtually invented the aesthetics of the Eldar of both kinds. There ain't more accurate depiction of the spesh elves than his concepts.

In "Siege of Castellax" by C. L. Werner there is an Iron Warrior that acquires the piloting ability of an ork in the span of a few minutes after ingesting the braintissue of a ork flyboy.
Sufficiently enough to get a Bomma off the ground and escape in the general direction of the main Iron Warrior fortress to dubious safety.
Interestingly enough it was noted by the current squadleader that the one eating the brain should be confident in his omophagea.
