Tutorial: 2 (+2) quick and easy ways to paint Ork/Orruk flesh

How to paint light and dark Ork skin

In this post I’ll teach you two quick and straight-forward techniques for painting Ork (or Orruk) flesh: One is based on the new Orruk Flesh base paint, while the other uses a combination of Contrast and traditional painting to create a great result without spending hours on blending or shading. I’ll also add links to two more Ork tutorials for even more ideas to paint your new Beast Snaggaz, Kommandos, or Kruleboyz.

Showcase: Ork Looterz

Greetings, humans. Hope you’re well. Today I’d like to show you a bunch of Looterz. As usual with this army I have to point out that I didn’t convert these myself. I just get to paint them. 🙂 …which also allows me to praise the…

Showcase: Ork Ghazghkull Thraka and Makari

Got to finish Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka and his lucky sidekick Makari!  What a model. He’s huge. Bigger than a Dreadnought with that base. On Ghazghkull himself I went with a colour scheme very akin to the army he’s leading. Didn’t even look at the…

WIP: Ork Looterz

More Orks! This time it’s 30 Looterz.  I only get to paint these figures, I don’t build them. So I can gush on about how cool these conversions are. Not a single guy or gun is the same in this unit. Very little can be…

WIP: Ork Big Meks with Shokk Attack Guns

Heyhey. It’s lovely, lovely April. It’s also weird, weird times, but let’s focus on the loveliness of April (while keeping a distance, wearing masks and gloves). I’m currently working on a bunch more Goff Orks and here we got three Big Meks – some bigger…

WIP: Ork Stormboyz

Heyhey, after a whole lot of Prussians and right before getting started on some more I’ll see that I get a bit of a head start on some Orks. First: 64 Stormboyz. I split them into two batches of 32 to make it more manageable,…
