Well here is one of my objectives for my army. He is almost done with some minor details left. What do you guys think?

wow, the orange is different but effective. Nice work!

Looks great so far! I like the color of the knives and also of the mask.

wow the knife looks great!

Thanks! Yea I figured that if Snikrot had Morks teeth they would be lava/fiery.

The technique on the knives works, but I have to disagree with the other posters; they are my least favorite part of the model. I think the skin looks fantastic though. I can totally see that you have very solid painting skills, it's the color choice that doesn't do it for me.

Looks great, although not very sneaky with the striking colors.

Bright yellow izn't da sneakiest... but it's painted very well

likin the blades, loving the mask, the skin looks fantastic!

Lol finally!!

Awesome job with Snikrot!

In dis 'ere jungle, I hav kleverly disguised my choppas as bananas. The 'umies don't know wot hit 'em. Hur, hur, hur."

It's a really nice paint job, and the technique on the blades is fantastic, but I don't think (personally) it is appropriate for his blades. Snikrot doesn't have power weapons, or daemon weapons, or a blade of living fire. He has two sharp choppas. I think this technique would look great on an Eldar Avatar, or a Fire Dragon, or a Relic Blade or something. It just seems wrong on his choppas.

Think of it this way. You might have a flawless technique for painting power weapons. That doesn't mean that it will look right on Ork pants.

However, it's your model, not mine. If you like the paint scheme, then I can certainly agree that it is very well done.

But they arent just choppas butcha.
They are morks teeth.


I like em, makes a change from the usual colours you see.

Haha I love the bananna idea, and yes they are MORK's teef, Mork would mash you dead for saying that lol!!

6 Str. 6 hits on an assault, with re-roll to hit. Sounds better than a Eldar power wep to me =D

Lovely, I might have gone for a cool blue for the blades but I still think the orange works perfectly well.

Thanks!

Lovely painting, like the slightly yellow-ey skin as opposed to the usual green.

I think the skin is awesome I've done orks with the paler flesh before and think its looks great to the conventional goblin green ork you get, And the blades look awesome just coz the yellow doesnt mean in signifies being power or daemon, it could be a shiny new metal or summit snikrot found when sneaking about ... good job dude

Kick ASS!

Haha thanks a lot!!

The ork skin is awesome. The knives don't fit the fluff for me. Snikrot is the sneakiest of the kommandos, meaning he'd probably dull his knives with paint or dirt to reduce the chances that he'd be seen before he sunk them into a poor guardsman's flesh.

Yeah, but yellow is da sneakiest!!

When you have entire chapters of superhuman warriors walking onto battlefields dressed in bright yellow/red/white etc armour I think a couple of orange swords are acceptable.

Great job I love the way you painted the swords.

NIce job but just doesn't fit the fluff or the commando look.

Fantastic! Very original!

I would have never htought to do bright yellows/oranges when I painted my boss Snikrot. Keep up the good work!

Love the knives!!

Demand a how to!

wow man, amazing paint job for sure, i have to agree with the few others who posted about the blades not adhearing to the fluff though. altough Morks teeth do look friggin EPIC! the fluff states that they are in fact black. but holy crap do they look good the way you did them, if you post a tutorial i may do my power weapons for my BA's in a similar fashion. Keep up the good work man!
