Thanks, Yeah I really prefer a dirty skin tone like that for Orks, more so than the traditional bright green. I think it better suits their fungal, swampy origins. I actually got the inspiration for his skin color and overall appearance from an old post I saw here on Dakka.
I'll link it if anyone is interested: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/242025.page

I like green myself, but I'm not so self-important as to think anything else is wrong, and I do like the color you've used. 
I also like the fleshier-looking inside of the ear, and how the colors and overall look of the model make it look a little...let's say dusky, like he's sneaking through the bush just as night sets in, getting ready to dice up some 'umies.

Especially for a jungle fighter like Snikrot. I like 'im.

"Straight Fething Silver"  Tanith first and only
I have a reputation, Modile, a reputation as a fair, honest man who treats his soldiers well and supports them in the face of darkness. Potentially, that reputation makes me soft. It seems I understand failure and forgive it. Some, like Kowle, believe me to be a weak commissar, not prepared to take the action my rank demands. Not prepared to enforce field discipline where I see it failing. I am an Imperial commissar. I will enflame the weak, support the wavering, guide the lost. I will be all things to all men who need me. But I will also punish without hesitation the weak, the incompetent, and the treasonous.
I am a Commissar. I am empowered to deliver justice wherever I see it lacking. I am empowered to punish cowardice. I am granted the gift of total authority to judge, in the name of the Emperor, on the field of combat.
— Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt, prior to the field execution of his uncle General Aldo Dercius |

Black basecoat, followed by a layer of Catachan Green. Then a wash of Devlan Mud. After that, I did 3 layers that were drybrushed on- Camo Green, Rotting Flesh, and Bleached Bone. To finish, I used a heavy wash of Gryphonne Sepia. Its a bit complex but it was very easy to pull off.
Thanks everyone for your comments!
