Does anyone have any suggestions on how to paint an ork's teef? I've got most of the color scheem on my boys down but I'm having trouble comming up with a teef coloration that looks any good. Also painting those tiny things is murder on my hand. >< Any suggestions?

If you have the Hand co-ordination, paint it scorched brown, then bestial brown, leaving a little line of Scorched at the bottom, you them paint it with Bleached bone, again leaving a little bestial and scorched (Try to paint little flicks extending to the gum, it improves the luck) and then highlight with Skull white, sparingly.

Or, if you lack the control, simply paint bleached bone and apply a Devlan mud wash.

Im just going to do them
1. Bleeched Bone
2 Devlan Mud wash

i might give it a highlight but dont think so. This is tabletop Q.

Jakkarra: I may save that one for my warboss, but on the boyz I'll try out your second suggestion.

Cliff: Thank you too sir.

sorry, double post

Bascoat GW Foundation Dheneb Stone
wash all over with Gryphonne Sepia
wash in between the cracks of the teeth where they meet the gums or the other teeth with Devlan Mud.

Gets you a nice bone colour quick, but stays brighter and stands out nice.

Sounds interesting!
Could you possibly put up some picture to show us how that will turn out ?

Crappy pic, but it gives you an idea of how it looks.

Bleach Bone base, Brown ink or Devlan Mud wash. Drybrush the top 25% of the teeth with skull white.

Straight Graveyard earth and a light devlan mud wash does the trick for me.

Thats pretty much how I do it, when I want them to look nice.
