Close but their tits should be bigger.
>>98557258This.
>>98557228Lurk more.
>>98557258>>98557296This is just porn. The mods should delete it and ban you for posting it on a blue board.
>>98558928I unironically believe a conspiracy that the agenda is to shit up the quality of these boards to burn off users so the site dies, hence these living npc posts the mods magically ignore.
>>98557296Made for paifell to me.
>>98558928>fully clothed woman with big boobs = pornYou're retarded. >>98558950Completely the opposite, more threads means more "engagement" which advertisers see as site health. Why do you think janny tolerates the daily spam of puckee threads?
>>98558928Buddy you're a nihilistic atheist of a dying culture posting on 4chan in 2026 why the fuck are you acting like a prude lmao
>>98557228See ya fagboi
>>98558928Lurk more.
>>98557222just make a completely new setting for them in that case. Blue hooved space babes with tan 90's mech suits sounds great
>>98557222What do they look like then?
>>98557222Kinda wish Tau were in WH fantasy.
>>98558992The blue reflections in her hair and clothes imply that she is literally glowing blue. What are they feeding her? What are the ethereals hiding?
>>98560481They kinda already look like this. The only thing missing is boobs.
>>98562786I mean their skin being blue would reflect that hue outwardly,
>>98558992>fully clothed
>>98563037Yes retard, or is your definition of "fully-clothed" a burka?
>>98557258>>98557296>>98558992>>98563021Imagine the grown men who save and post this shit LMAO
>>98563021
>>98558950Puckee being protected would support this
>>98563333The worst posters are protected and those who call attention to them are persecuted. Many, MANY such cases.
The POINT of this design trend back when we started it in 2008 was for them to have BIG HIPSBig boobs are an afterthoughtBUT A CERTAIN BOOB FETISHIST (who is probably AGP as fuck given some of the shit he's commissioned) hijacked our blueberries.
Male Tau should look like this canonically.Discuss.
>>98563474>Big boobs are an afterthoughtThey're never an afterthought, and to believe such a thing is madness.
>>98560489Cathay.
>>98563333Checked and yeah, there's some serious fuckery afoot.
>>98563057This is how I believe he looks like, except he's also supposed to be in a clitty cage and BBC only tats.
>>98563474Rent free
I get that people think they should have big udders because of the hooves, but I'm pretty sure they're canonically not mammals. I read somewhere that Tau physiology is closer to flightless birds that evolved into something resembling sheep. Emus? There's an Australia joke in there somewhere.
>>98564217People keep reading what is supposed to be in universe propaganda and keep getting tricked by it somehow.
>>98564221I very much doubt the people making or consuming this stuff actually believe that Tau are supposed to look like this.
>>98557258How many nipples should they have? I vote for two on each tit with six inch long nipples to drive home the whole cloven hoof feet making them share some kind of ancient goat/cow ancestry.Would Tau milk be blue? Is that where the Skywalker family in Star Wars got their blue milk making SW and 40K share a universe separated by time?
>>98564484Dial it back a little you weirdo.
>>98564491No, I'm dialing it forward. That weird "nose" slit? Could that be a cloaca? Is Tau sex passionate headbutting? Would that require literal fake fucking to have sex with a Tau? Would that mean they view human noses as erect dicks and humans are just constantly horny creatures (desu that's fair, going by this thread)? Do Tau lay eggs? If they don't fertilize the eggs, do they lay them anyway? A Tau having a sneezing might be them going into labor.There are too many questions that need answers. Figuring it out seems like a chore though. Better to just kill them and let the Emperor sort it out.
>>98564580>Could that be a cloaca?>Is Tau sex passionate headbutting?>Would that require literal fake fucking to have sex with a Tau?>Would that mean they view human noses as erect dicks and humans are just constantly horny creatures (desu that's fair, going by this thread)?>Do Tau lay eggs?>If they don't fertilize the eggs, do they lay them anyway?no
>>98564484>I vote for two on each tit with six inch long nipplesMan of culture right here!
>>98564484Proof that puriteens are all the real sexual deviants out here. Just like how every conservative politician is gay.
>>98563055He's an underage B& puriteen so yeah.
>>98564935I know people joke about Tau and blue milk, but milk is white because of the fat and protein caseins. I don't really see how Tau milk wouldn't also be white unless it had a lot lower fat content which doesn't really make sense for pure, raw breastmilk.
>>98564956Tau fat is blue.They are like those black meat chickens that are so flooded with melanin all of their tissues and fluids are black.Same with Tau but space melanin is blue.
>>98565067That doesn't make any sense.
>>98557222>>98557258>>98557296These are all acceptable looks.>>98558928You need to be 18 years or older to use this board.
>>98564956Breast milk is fairly low in fat compared to animal milk.
Too much Tau titty, not enough blueberry buttcheeks.

>>98557222Do you have a reason for wanting this change beyond 'it makes my pee-pee happy'?
>>98566827What other reason is there?
>>98566828Right.Appeal denied.
>>98566827It mirror's humanity's and eldar's downfall. Notice how all the dominant races in the galaxy have been humanoid. The T'au are repeating Eldar and Humanity's story.
unf unf unf i love plapping tau water caste diplomatitties
I know tau have hair, but it just doesn't look right seeing them with a full head.
>>98566828Water Caste needs certain qualities and assets to convince human diplomats of the benefits of joining the T'au empire and smoothe the negotiations.
>>98566953I think most people would find an alien not sexy. Especially nobles who's religion tells them anything short of human with zero abnormalities is pure evil.
>>98566953
>>98566975
>>98566964>nobel woman molesting tau water caste rather then getting cool technologyTypical woman.
>>98566959>I think most people would find an alien not sexy.
>>98567025Well the Eldar don't count. They're the master race of the setting.
>>98567043I'm calling the Inquisition...
>>98566982I doubt most imperial citizens would know how to use any piece of Tau technology, but getting a piece of alien ass is always desirable.
>water caste>can't swim
>>98567068Now this is the ideal tau female body.
>>98565619Do they really? I know the Uplifting Primer says so, but I think that's just one of the silly propaganda bits like Orks having bones made of wood.
>>98564221Sounds like GW did a good job at making propaganda then.
>>98562899It's weird how some xenos designs in modern media are just black people. Yes I'm thinking of Avatar's / Gamora's Zoe Saldana
>>98567068
>>98568344Eh, that stuff goes way back.
>>98568344m8 if you think the fucking Tau of all people are "black" just because they're bald you're kind of a retard.
>>98568344>in modern mediaIt's been a thing since before your dad's balls dropped
>>98558928You missed the Prayer Call, habibi
>Supremacy armor pilots be like
>>98568344Honestly I believe you. This is a weird pattern and why the social media normie activists haven’t caught on and started reeing os beyond me.But I’d imagine that coming up with a truly alien culture and aesthetics is harder than it sounds so artists and writers go for the less popular cultural aesthetics (in western nations and East Asian too I think) like African or aboriginal island cultures.
>>98570556Because Catholics and Christians are known for dressing like sluts and whores.
>>98557222>>98557258>>98557296The T'au'va WILLS IT!>>98567094Good thing she has those floaties!

>>98573499In comparison? yeah kind of.>>98572787That's just what happens when you take from irl cultures with little regards to how that can be twisted.>>98567025>>98567043I don't know why but every other lore tidbit about the eldar just sounds bullshit.

>>98558928This is the advertisement at the top of this blue board. Sit down before you hurt yourself.
So are Tau basically chinese? I don't know much about warhammer, but I could get into it if they had buddhists/monks/shaolin/whatever.
>>98576674They're sort of styled after Taoism but they're mostly just communist.
>>98576674They're east asian coded blue aliens with a strict racial caste system and a goal to unite all species under one banner
>>98576674T'au are a collection of orientalist tropes mixed with the Egalitarian Multicultural Space Federation archetype found in classic sci-fi media like Star Trek, but specifically the millennially cynical version of the Egalitarian Multicultural Space Federation found in later Trek like Deep Space Nine where it's mostly a thin veneer of nobility over structural autocracy upheld by an Orwellian surveillance state. They can be Chinese, but there's a heaping helping of Japan's Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere in which the T'au occupy a first-amongst-equals position in the hierarchy of their nominally equal client states.Modern GW is too cowardly to depict an overtly Chinese faction in a critical light, though, which is why Old World fellates Grand Cathay so vigorously.I think it's a pretty neat vibe for the T'au Empire, though, so I don't let GW dictate how they should be depicted.
>>98576736O'pai sex.
>>98576793Shut up. Asian influences are secondary and also present in other factions. Tau are space Bush era NATO as told by their designers. https://www.reddit.com/r/Tau40K/comments/145rfx9/gav_thorpe_on_tau_being_more_like_nato_modern/
>>98577066Tau Empire as a whole maybe but the Tau themselves clearly have asian influence.
>>98575450Choosing to not to lean into the absurdity of the older setting and the modern cheesecake fanart is the most secondary take out there.
>>98576736>>98576788>>98576793>>98577076Thanks for replying gents. Are they the best choice for space buddhists/zen monks (albeit evil)? Or is there a better group for that?
>>98577091Nah they fit that kind of look well. They're not necessarily "evil". Just y'know pragmatic & collectivist. Compared to the Imperium on hiveworlds, they're saints.
>>98575450Got a link to for that Tau girl?

>>98576648Wait you get ads?
>>98577109>They're not necessarily "evil". Not compared to Deldar, but people need to stop pretending that they aren't a supremecist colonial empire that only negotiates at the end of a railgun. They're just as willing to be as xenocidal as the Imperium, but their writers plague them with comic naivety.
>>98577066What is the Egalitarian Multicultural Space Federation if not NATO? Moron.
>>98567025Source on that image? sounds interesting.
>>98577282Phonefags.
>>98577299Again with the potential faction posting.
>>98577091No, craftworld eldar are better buddhists/monks.
>>98577369You can use brave on any device.
While we're at it, did Eldrad or whoever it was uplift the entire species from alien sheep or just give the Ethereals their mind control powers?
>>98577299This just sounds like any empire in history. Even the British did this and they were the most moral you could be.
>>98577395That sentence is nonsense, you fucking retarded secondary.>me said words, me smart, me pick good guys in 40k
>>98577448There's no morality in conquest. What the fuck are you even on?
>>98577453You implying the Tau COULD be just as as bad as the Imperium makes them evil is retarded. It's a nothing argument.
>>98577462>There's no morality in conquest.You're fucking stupid.

>>98577496So, at best things improved, at worst they stayed the same.
>>98577448>Even the British did this and they were the most moral you could be.lol? i mean I suppose you could say that, given the bar there.>>98577479the spanish also conquered and massacred plenty of people who were just doing their own thing, even ignoring the aztecs.>>98577299>they're just as willing to be as xenocidal as the ImperiumNo, not really. They have the capacity for genocide but the Imperium is far beyond that. genocide is the imperial norm, whereas the Tau start with diplomacy and sometimes cultural genocide and then work their way up to genocide (unless it's orks or nids or whatever but they deserve it).
>>98577210
>>98577462Nigga if the tau don't they, and all the client races die. The moral floor here is fight or be gencoided/raped/lose your soul for eternity. A crown is warranted with strength to fend the abyss that stares. No pacifists live in 40k.
>>98577479There should be a Tau version of this with a chibi fire warrior girl apologizing for conquering some shithole hive world.
I like the idea that some radical Ordo Xenos Inquisitor spreads rumors of Tau lewdity so Imperials resist more when they encounter the reality.
>>98577856>so Imperial women resist moreWe know how jealous women are.
>>98577856>Men, beware the Tau who are sexy blue women with huge tits!m8 that would just cause defections.

Tau cute
Among all mammals on Earth, and there are over 5,000 species, human females are the only ones who have permanently enlarged breasts when they are not pregnant and not breastfeeding. Every other female mammal flat chested outside of pregnancy and lactation. Gorillas, chimpanzees, dolphins, elephants, dogs, cats, all of them. Their breasts enlarge when needed, then return to flat. Only human females carry permanent breast tissue their entire adult lives regardless of whether they have ever been pregnant.Permanent breast tissue in human females may have evolved as an "honest signal" of reproductive status and health. Breast development begins at puberty under the influence of estrogen. Maintaining breast tissue requires a certain baseline of body fat and hormonal health. A female who is severely malnourished, chronically ill, or under intense physiological stress will have reduced breast development or regression of breast tissue. So, the presence of developed breast tissue can signal to potential mates that this individual has sufficient fat reserves, adequate hormonal function, and enough overall health to sustain a pregnancy.But there is another important factor that many explanations overlook: Concealed ovulation. Most female primates have visible signals of ovulation. Color changes, swellings. Human females are one of the very few primate species that conceal ovulation completely. There is no visible external sign of when a human woman is fertile. Biologists believe concealed ovulation evolved to encourage continuous mate bonding. If a male cannot tell when a female is fertile and wants to maximize reproductive success, the most effective strategy is to stay with her continuously rather than only approaching during obvious fertility windows. This shift toward pair bonding changed the nature of sexual signaling in humans. Signals no longer needed to say, "I am fertile right now." It shifted to "I am a healthy, reproductively viable individual."
>>98576587All 5 of the T'au women in this image owe me sex
>>98580631It also allows human females the ability to nurse other infants if need be, without ever being pregnant themselves.
>>98580633B-but there are only three (or maybe four) Tau girls in that image...
>>98557296
>>98558928Tau are descended from bovines, big tits are given. But depicting their funbags seconds away from bursting out of their clothes is dumb, they should have industrial strength sport bras rather than let all that meat flail around unsupported.
>>98584082I mean that might be true for Firewarriors, but other castes probably don't need or wear that much support. I mean it's entirely possible that Tau have stronger Cooper's ligaments than humans don't really even need to wear bras.
>>98562899So this is the little asian fish head wife I've heard so much about.
>>98557222humans have boobs because our jaws are flush with our face, and our noses protrude from our face. no reason for tau to have tits
>>98584495That doesn't make any sense.
>>98583351Breasting boobilly, indeed.
>>98575643I always thought a young, female Ethereal who inspires her troops through song based on Lynn Minmei and the other idol singers from the Macross series would be a fun idea, but I guess the Tau have kinda developed their own identity over the years and that would just be too much of a throwback to being the "anime" faction.
Fund it.
>>98584654They need a good kick in their pants with that though because the average person is only gonna care about the mech suits anyway. Embrace it. Give them laser katanas & kimonos.
>>98582910I don't care what they say about their face lines, I see 5 women in that picture
>>98584654They should still do it. Trying to make them Covenant expies didn't work (though they also didn't try, since none of the auxilliaries share any design language unlike the races in the Covnenant who use similar shapes, colours and also actually use the same weapons and technology)
>>98584695The Vespids use Tau weapons. It's just the Kroot who have their stuff rather than mixing both & having at least in armor that's similar but unique for them.
>>98584654I was torn between water caste or ethereal caste making music since the other 3 castes wouldn't gel well with the water caste art even if they're supposed to be propaganda masters.
>>98584707Vespid are okay, but they're clearly an afterthought considering the Kroot have multiple squads, mounted units and characters. They almost have as many as the Votann do.Also I will admit I forgot the body of their guns look like normal caste technology given I remembered they're weird crystal guns that only Vespids can shoot by humming at them, and my brain made them more crystalline.
>>98584771And that goes back to the point of how GW just doesn't try with the auxiliaries.
I just enjoy the cheesecake threads and don't think Tau non-canon fuckery is worth getting riled up over primarily because 40k sucks cock as a product and as a developing narrative, and in both cases it's only getting worse, but it would be nice if the threads would just be honest enough about calling them cheesecake threads so people who don't give a shit can just filter them and everyone else can stop pretending this isn't about posting /e/ stuff in /tg/
>>98584791I think they should either fully commit and do more varied auxilliaries OR just get rid of them all and make a "minor xenos" codex.I know I would prefer the latter but I just want one of the two instead of the half assery we have going on
>>98584814I think the tau minis themselves could use a slight refresh as well. They're a little too squat. Better minis & more auxiliaries would be ideal.
>>98584746I could see the Earth Caste doing EDM since they're the ones in charge of most of the electrics.
>>98584814I think it would make for a fun story to have the Tau go to war with the Dark Eldar in a misguided effort to liberate the Sslyth.
>>98584793It's secondaries doing secondary things. There's a reason they have a reputation in the hobby.
>>98576736There is almost nothing communist about the tau
>>98584793Thank you for your input. We here at 4chan.com hear your suggestion and will take these to consideration. Don't forget to by a 4chan pass and be first to post in any thread of your choosing.
>>98584793Who's pretending otherwise? What on earth are you talking about?
>>98584746Personally, I think that each caste should have its own artistic vein, perhaps even overlapping. Architecture is obviously Earth Caste, but maybe they accept input from the Water Caste etc.
>>98584746Music would probably be universal throughout the Tau. Armies march to music. Water Caste propaganda. Ethereals might have religious songs or there are probably hymns about the ethereals/Greater Good. Earth caste work in tempo. Air caste fly in sync. There's probably a lot of history, anthems, stories, rituals, etcetc, to sing about. I assume it's water caste dominated especially in civilian life, but I dont see why it would be only one or two castes with that cultural expression. It would be like saying only fire caste have guns, when we know all of the other caste carry and use weapons.
>>98580631When ayys uplifted humans, they made sure some aesthetic principles would stand.
The Tau empire has fallen. Billions must be reeducated.
>>98584654Aun'La literally translates to 'Prince' or 'Princess', and Ethereals are the smallest caste, and de-facto idols in a very real way, with how others percieve them.I'd say it makes perfect sense for an Ethereal, too young to get into politics, philosophy debates, or actual leadership, to serve the greater good by performance art and morale boosting.Good public speaking skills, performance art, a chance to develop critical skills for later in life, while traveling to overlooked areas and morale-boosting.>>98586180>Water caste make up the bulk of exported art, and subsequently have the greatest breadth and depth of artistic tradition and knowledge. If you want an expert in the arts, any arts, you consult one of them. No matter the art, there will be water caste who've made a study of it their whole lives.>Ethereals rank in at a second, with a mixture of public performance idol skills, traditional artistic practices, and the like. However beyond being a tool to balance one's self, to perform certain traditions and rituals, or to train skills within ones youth, it serves more to ensure that those making decisions consider art.>The Earth Caste have very structural art. Architecture, mechanical engineering, custom drones, the occasional statuary. It's somewhat less obvious as artistic expression, but by nature, functionally ubiquitous across the Empire.>The Fire Caste don't have a clean form of artistic expression, instead varying wildly from cadre to person, to sept world, as a combination of stresses, pressures, close camaraderie and other factors foster everything from songs, to dance performances, to miniature model making, drinking games and more.
>>98589910>7th company>devastatorsUM 7th company is all Tacticals. Immersion ruined. Shit artist. Would fap again.
>>98589910>>98584654
>>98584654I think a group of water caste idols makes more sense than an ethereal doing it.
>>98570277those are slavs

>>98590656
>>98576478Got any more of the water caste traps?
>>98590217Can't expect better from a dog fucking furfaggot.
>>98558950Not a conspiracy if various hacks that revealed info proved it.
>>98558950I don't think it's a conspiracy. The sharty hack revealed they're all furries, the shit opinions come to them organically without any needing any particular agenda.
>>98575643Disco music, of course But on a serious matter, I think as others have said in this thread, it probably depends on the caste, but it will probably be mostly just official anthems and chants that are easy to sing along to when starting the dayBut I could imagine that on different Septs, the civ caste population having their own local music to listen to while working or relaxing. Then you throw in the dozens of minor xeno species and humans living within the empire, their own cultures and music thrown into the mix, and some Tau might listen to their music instead. Unless the Ethereals forbid non-Tau music due to it being seen as an anti-greater good dissent
