Iv'e been working on my orks for a couple months now, and Iv'e consistantly dreaded getting to "da teef" because I only had white to paint them with. I just picked up some brushed bone on my recent trip to a country with warhammer stores. Problem solved right? Well apparently not, because I just threw some on an black-coated attack squig and it looked like crap.

So my question is quite simple:

How do you paint teeth?

thanks

After the under coat first basecoat it with scorched brown and then paint over that with the white,or at least thats how I have done it in the past.

Methods vary but here is what I do. Base coat Khermi Brown, 1st highlight Bleached Bone, 2nd highlight Bleached Bone/White, 3rd highlight white.

Cool. I'll stick with the 3 coat solution cause I'm lazy, but thanks both of you.

For my orks I do some variations of Bleached Bone, washed with Devlan Mud and dry brush the top with Bleached Bone/Skull White.

EDIT: I should also mention a prepare the mouth by painting it all white and washing it with black until there is a more natural shift from the dark cave that is his mouth to his teeth.
