I just started Orks. I was wondering if anybody might have any good techniques.

I have a lot of good techniques (I think) on painting. you have to be more specific.

For example: rust.
1st basecoat black. The add drybrush layer blazing orange. Then drybrush Boltgun metal. Then you can add your armies color.

Hope this has helped a bit.

he wanted techniques on how to paint them. showing a picture of a finished ork does not answer his question.

In the comments of the first picture there is a breakdown of how they were painted. I forgot to mention that :/

It is a VERY quick method of painting Orks, stolen from someone else here on Dakka, whose name I also forget.

oooh in that case I need to apolagize to you then.

That would be painting an ork using washes.
Which is possibly the fastest way of doing it, and it looks pretty good. (just needs some details added)

thanks for all the advice. i'm really good at painting imperial guard so i'm having a rough time with orks considering i've never looked or painted an ork.
