Default My first Orks :D

So, these are the first 3 minis that I painted since I began in this hobby so don't expect something good :P Also, the last 2 aren't finished yet so there are some places where paint is missing :-[ The main reason for posting these pics is to get some feedback about the skin since I painted it somewhat different from "normal" Ork skin. Any criticism and advice is welcome and sorry for the not so good quality :'(

Not sure exactly what to say about the skin except maybe a darker green and some highlights but you did a nice job on the weapon details. Not really used to painting skin either (necrons are metal and chaos marines are covered from head to toe in armor...and the daemon prince doesn't exactly have natural colored skin). As for the face maybe try bone white on the teeth then give it a light brown or black inking to show that it's ork. For the first couple pictures maybe change his armor to a dark brown or a black so it doesn't go along with the skin, add a little bit of highlights on the edges.

The thing is the skin is actually Orkhide shade drybrushed with Gretchin green whilst Knarloc green is normally used. And thanks a lot for the feedback
