Darkseer Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 "Say what again. Say What again. I dare you. I double dare you xenos-trukka!" Yeah, could resist :( Aaanyway, in the novel Prospero Burns, what does Kasper Hauser look like exactly once he's been living with the Vlka Fenryka for a year? I remember he has long hair and a beard. There's also mention of him wearing a black bodyglove (the default Abnett attire) earlier in the book, plus a ruddy brown pelt given to him by one of the Space Wolves. But what colour is Kasper's hair and does he actually have more on him than just a pelt and a black bodyglove? I'm thinking of making a model for the Tempus Fugitives heresy era campaign to accompany my army.

MaveriK Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 for some reason, the miniature range for ratskins gang in Necromunda popped in my head for Kasper LOL just find a nice model and wolf him up a little bit. Or a Bloodbowl Norse lineman. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219378-what-does-kasper-hauser-look-like/#findComment-2616332 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adarul Greystalker Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I believe he was mentioned as having black hair. The most vivid imagery of him for me was when he tossed his hair back out of his face to show the Imperial Army officer his eye. If I were modeling/painting him, I would try to allude to that moment with the eye and hair if possible. (and don't forget that the theme of ocular imagery and marks of aversion in Prospero Burns was at its most vivid and evident in the character of the skjald himself) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219378-what-does-kasper-hauser-look-like/#findComment-2652152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarKHaZZ13 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Well, you know one of his eyes is augmentic with a yellow and black eye! And he'd be pretty built/athletic, as he was 'remade' He has leather on top of his body glove...I'd imagine it'd be a tight combat kind of fit, as they are a warrior culture and they have engravings on it...it would seem to make more sense. I kind of get a pagan/nordic image behind the carvings. (Hawser even mentions the paganistic quality of the wolves) Of course you can skip his actual facial features and model his mask of averison....which is pretty detailed in its description and as previously stated he has long hair and a beard....which despite being 'youthfull' again, I would paint grey.....he has spent a long time with the wolves since being remade...

Emperor's Scourge Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 erm...I don't remember him having a 'mask of aversion' :S Yeah, he made his own before Prospero. He mentions working on it during the period when the RPs are hacking his mind.

narf Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 his black and yellow eye isnt augmetic, its organic, it would have been interesting to know which wolve if any had given up his eye to replace the augmetic gouges out by bear.
