Deployed right now and took up 40k with some of the free time this is the first model i have painted in about 8 years I used to paint my dads soldiers before I moved out I took these pictures in the bathroom ( its the only place with bright lighting)
fyi cant use the dirt out here to base the model nicely wont be able to take my boys back with me due to foreign soil on my units

not bad, I like the checks! He looks better than my first 15 orks.....

But there are still a few things you can improve. The metal for example could look better. I'd use a flat coat of boltgun (or whatever metal you are using) and wash it with black (either badab black or VERY thinned down chaos black)

if you want to get better at painting, check this thread:
