My first try at painting miniatures. Fell free to criticize.

looking good!
nice work

Put a Devlan Mud wash on their teeth. It'll make each individual tooth pop out rather than looking like a blob of white. You can do the same onto any whites/Bonewhites, mainly because Orks are always dirty.

Those are extremely well done for a first-timer, I agree with Ares on the teeth, but nonetheless you did a fantastic job.

Great work, mate.

I like the Kans!

I'm liking your nice bright bold colours, good job!

you should be proud of yourself! Great work!

very good. Keep 'em coming.

Really first time lol, they look great as one of the guys said up top, put some devlun mud on the teeth

Very nice first time...
I also agree, dev mud on the teeth, and possibly the skin.. The paint job is awesome, but they look a little too clean for orks... ^^ I usually paint mine, then give them a thorough dev mudding, then pick out a few highlights after to finish off...
I'll post some when I have more than 5 finished.. ^^

As others have said, you've got a good start going for your first Orks. I'd suggest a little more shading on certain parts of the Boyz though, and maybe dirty up the Kanz a little too.

Looks good. I like the bright colours.

Well, they ARE brand new! Haven't had a proppa fight yet!

I'm painting my first models too (which also happen to be Orks) and I have to say that I love the 'Waaagh!' on the front of the Killa Kan, might use something liek that on my Kans .

Like AresX8 said, put a wash of Devlan Mud on the teeth to make each tooth look more individual. The teeth are something I am struggling with a bit too

nice. Im starting out to right now and I think those look great. One sugestion though would be to try and get the skin tone a bit darker. It makes them look more real (or a real as green skinned aliens can get)

Very well done, especially for a first timer! They look a tad to clean for my taste when it comes to orks but they look very good either way.
