Title: Monks Hair (wanted)
Post by: Wesley Myers on October 18, 2011, 19:38:13: I have a Wandering Monk who has lost his hair.

Are these still available or does anyone have extras? Does not need to be red.

Orange would work, but it's okay to be grey. Or any other colour.

Is that still available?

I was thinking of the other clowns orange hair, trimming the top and painting it flesh.

Hmm.

Maybe that could be done with other hair. (I'm in the computer lab on campus - now I want to be at home and try this! Well, Team Penning is cancelled tonight so I'll go home and see what I can do).

Post by: Wesley Myers on October 20, 2011, 18:47:45: I only need a spare one. Otherwise I would want to keep the clown stock. Yeah, I could swap out hair, but I would only want to do that if I had more than one. I don't.

Still haven't carved and painted other hair yet - I'll try that today.

Hmm, better yet, why carve? I can paint the top of the head flesh colour and with the "hat ridge" that gives me the option of putting on a helmet - like Friar Tuck is often portrayed!

Post by: Wesley Myers on October 21, 2011, 14:36:08: That looks nice.

But would a monk wear it? Or just the cowl under the scapular?

Well ... would a monk wear a helmet like the one in the picture you posted?

:)

Post by: Wesley Myers on October 21, 2011, 15:29:57: Did a bit of research and a monk could wear a zucchetto. Like shown below.

Well, considering all the Crusader Orders (Military Orders) were monastic orders ...

And your avatar being that of a monk of the Teutonic Order. ;)

Here is a link to the 'Journal of Monastic Military Orders' journal which can be previewed online:

It's chock full of pictures of ships, castles, heraldry and armour.

Post by: Bolingbroke on October 21, 2011, 16:07:18: Mmmm. Yeah - I know about monastic orders, but Friar Tuck's something else altogether, eh :P

Unfortunately there is nothing resembling a zucchetto in the world of PM, to the best of my knowledge at least. Some weeks ago there was a klicky on sale on ebay that had the hair you need, but the seller didn't ship outside Germany. I should know, cause I too have a monk who's waiting for his proper hair.
