Hi,

First, I hope you all had nice holidays and a good start into 2012.

In the past four years I got the requests for how I paint Ork skin. These requests got more and more again recently so I thouht I'd make that my traditional New Year's painting tutorial article.




Just follow the link to get to the tutorial.

Please let me know if you have any comments, questions or critizisms about the article.

best wishes,
Sigur

Great tutorial, i'll see if i can try this

You're welcome. Sure, just give it a try.

Which colours would you recommend from range of GW paints?

Hi Moobicat!

Not sure about the new GW paints but in terms of the older ones, Reflective Green from the Vallejo Model colour range can easily be substituted with Catachan Green (Reflective Green is a tad "greener" and lighter but Catachan Green will work just as well), Camo Green of course is a GW paint. I'm currently looking for a good replacement myself.

Hope that was at least semi-helpful to you.

That is awesome

I am glad this came up again I think I may have to try this. Very nice looking stuff.

Great tut there!

My missus recently started doing an Ork army so I'll be sure to show her this.

Thanks, glad you like the tutorial! You're all more than welcome to pay a visit to my very own painting log here on Dakka of course.
