I'm finally back on the wagon and the time has come to paint some ork vehicles. In the past I went with a rusty metal look with yellow spots here and there. It never really looked all that great to me.
I've thought hard about doing primarily black with yellow additions but I'm afraid it will look too unfinished due to the large amount of black.
Searching online still hasn't yielded a bunch of nice looking options. It seems like Bad Moon vehicles are pretty damn tough to do do right.
What do you guys think? Anyone here have a link to a picture of a nice Bad Moon vehicle?

That one is great. The yellow is really heavy for my tastes, but it looks much nicer than my personal attempt (now stripped) did! Automatically Appended Next Post: Breotan wrote:Go to the gallery and look at JHall's orks.
Great suggestion annon. Here's what I found (for the other posters to see):

Jeff's decision to tone the yellow down and keep it mostly black seems key.
Good spot Breotan.

I always think of this old GD entry.
It's decades old but is still actually a rather similar style to that far more modern Land Raider. Just without the weathering.

That's an excellent example of the bright, old-school method of doing Bad Moon tanks. I might have to use that style on my stuff if I can't find a grittier look.
