Hey! I\'ve painted a bunch of 40k orks and snotlings now, and I\'ve been looking for a way to do it faster, but still with good results, at least tabletop level. I asked for some hints in the Painting forum (http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/viewthread.php?tid=4430), and someone told me about \'stain painting\', which I thought sounded interesting.
Here are the models:

I completed these in about 2 hours, which is about 10 times faster than I would normally have done them but with pretty much equal results! I did this by undercoating the minis white, then washing with thinned down colours. First a rather bright wash, then a darker and more thinned down wash. The result is that the darker washes float further down cracks and crevices of the mini. The end-result is not really clean or crisp, but the detail is pretty good I think and the overall impression good enough for tabletop. Right?

They look pretty good, espcially since it was your first try.
