White Scars Ebon Keshig Modelling Question

[Etruscan]

I had a random question about modelling the Ebon Keshig. Seeing as it was a unit comprised of Space Marines seeking redemption or atonement, I couldn't help but notice the Forgeworld Ebon Keshig models do not contain a bare headed option in the kit like you see with so many other Legion specific terminator units.

 

Is there anything in the lore about them 'hiding' their identity behind a helm or would a bare headed Ebon Keshig be considered loreful? I know rule of cool and all that but for whatever reason I like to create models that are as fluffy as possible. Any insight would be much appreciated.

I like the idea hidden faces but in my opinion, at least one miniature with bare head, showing a typical steparian face, would be awesome.

Thanks for the reply. I do agree with you and especially since the Chogorian bare heads are very characterful. I do wonder why no bare head option was included with the Ebon Keshig given that most of the other dedicated White Scars kits have a bare head.

Can't feel the breeze flowing through your moustache when you're waddling along in terminator armour so may as well wear the helmet. 

 

No good reason they wouldn't so I guess it just comes down to design choice of the sculptor.

I've had long hair before but now I'm tempted by the notion of the wind blowing through a long moustache.
