Default Ran-dumb orcs

I finally learned to use my camera, and I decided to share what happens when I get bored and there is an orc around.
Guess what? this one was during the holiday season! And I used a huge amount of greenstuff on it. Sadly I forgot to 'ardcoat it, so the paint peeled horribly.




And this was after a weird discussion with a really good friend of mine about orc speech patterns and Ork drive-bys. I realize that I really need to touch these up.




And who doesn't like Kratos?

Ha ha ha. Good stuff.

The painting quility might be somewhere between lackluster and shoddy, but the ideas more than make up for it. :P A quick suggestion for your Ork skin, a quick highlight might help your Orks quite a bit. Mix some Dark Angels Green (that's what you're using, right?) and some Skull White until you get a color slightly lighter then what you started with. Then paint the raised parts of the arms and face (muscles, et cetera) while leaving the recesses dark. It'll look pretty great once you get used to doing it.

I think I might need to take the gansta Ork and use that idea in my army, actually. I think I'll have a mob of trukk boyz all like that. Consider your idea looted, unless you've got an objection. ;D

No objection. And I pulled them out because I was planning on repainting them, trust me, I'm not that bad of a painter. I'm planning on using snot green on Santorc, but for the other 2 I'll try your way, thanks.
