These guys were pretty great to paint. Quick and simple. I’m using Vallejo Goblin Green, because GW doesn’t have a colour that is identical to it’s old GG, but Vallejo does. Weird. Steel Legion Drab for the brown, Mithril Silver metal.
I decided to use GW Reikland Fleshshade and SW Flesh Wash here. The nice thing about greenskin flesh is that it’s a lot easier to not fuck up. Human skin is pale, and pale colours are hard. We look at human skin all day every day, so it’s easy to tell when it’s wrong. No gretchin at my office to tell me I painted this wrong!!
I noted when I started this project that I don’t actually have any Ork painting projects on this blog. Way back when I started it, I’d finished most of my existing Orks already, or I hadn’t figured out the format I wanted to use for it so I wasn’t blogging about it.
The bases are super simple — black it out, because I primed white, then Codex Grey, Fortress Grey and scorched grass from GW basing.
The carriages will be up next, and then (hopefully) the guns!
