So hi,

Started playing wh with the AobR set,
I chose Orks and..
I like 'em !
I especially like the painting, so i wanna get good at it, fast.
So these are my very first painted miniatures ever!

So, tell me what you think, and i would appreciate some tips on how to paint better,
I only have one brush and I don't have alot of paints so I used scorpion green, with some black and white to try and give the flesh some volume.

Sooooo, yeah,
don't hold back.

Great job!

ya nice work. the black and white squares are nice and clean. My advice, keep painting! look in the P&M blogs for different techniques and just try em out.

good job so far.
you might wanna try to use an alternative to the skin.
orks have many different skin tones so you should try and find the one that you like at best.

Very good first attempts,they look alot better than the first minis I ever tried to paint.
BTW,love your Avatar,Zappa was brillant.

You want me to be honest?

It's pretty damn awesome, very damn awesome! especially for your first piant job...

The Malicious Mushroom

great job man!!

Good job

Not bad, though as stated you may want to use another color for the skin, it might just be the lighting but it looks like Scorpion green, I would use goblin green instead. Even so, very nice work, much better than my first painted models.

I have only two words for you - Devlan Mud

Your work is very nice for a first attempt - clean and crisp with some decent layering but it needs something to blend it together and tone down some of the brighter areas (Orks should look dirty IMHO). A wash of Devlan mud should work wonders, but don't go overboard with it.

As for the rest, the only thing I would say is the same advice that all new painters get - keep practicing and use thinner paint; 2 thin coats is always better than 1 thick coat.

Looking good so far, keep it up and can't wait to see the next lot

Thanks for the Comments guys,
I'm ordering Goblin Green and Devlan mud as we speak,

Cheers

looking forward to see more pics of your models man.
