How to Paint an Ork?

[AinuLainour]

I really want to paint up a crazy 40k ork with loads of extra armour and trophies, so.. any tips?

Make it dirty. Lots of weathering and rust. And use metallics. Check out the work of Allan C, some lovely Orks in that man\'s gallery :] Make the weathering oily, and include a very large weapon (metal fist/gun/über-claw-thingy). Banners strapped to the back also tend to work well with Orks. And you MUST include a Grot somewhere, on the base or ion the mini. Hope that helps

Cheers

That definetly helps, thanks! I\'m planning on trying the bionic limbs of allan\'s orcs now, and to have a grot climbing over his back or being crushed under his feet

Just looking for the perfect model to base it on now.

Here\'s the perfect grot!

Though he\'d look better at the side...
