This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

What if I put it in my will that I want my skeleton turned into a kick ass statue in a WH40K style marine suit?

What would be the point? Space marine armor is fully enclosed, nobody would see the skeleton anyway.

Akshully, a significant portion of them prefers to fight without a helmet where possible, for various reasons such as chapter culture or certain gene seed variants. The primarchs are also often depicted without helmets, but considering the lore is essentially imperial propaganda it might make sense to depict them that way for PR reasons.

Wearing insanely heavy armor only to leave the helmet off seems like the kind of thing so obviously stupid it should be kept out of propaganda material at all costs.

It's not for them, it's for my skeleton.
