Hello guys i was wondering if any Ork players out there would mind showing off some of their Ork army colour schemes (close ups of favourite models would be great !!!)
If you don't have any pictures then i'd be very interested to hear what colours you think would go well (reference if possible)
ALSO i'd like to note that i want to keep the skin colour of the orks primarily Green (classic)
Anything would be appreciated Guys and Gals

Seen lots of colors, mainly black or brown armor with blue, yellow, or red armor plating. Pruple armor plating would look awesome though

IMHO, about the only uniform colour that doesn't work is green, coz it's too close to their skin colour. Hypothetically, even a green could work for kommandos, representing their (semi-accidentally successful) camouflage attempts, but it usually just looks weird where I've seen it.
If you have no idea what colour scheme to go for, think about your army theme and what clans the boyz mostly are. E.g. Deathskulls think the colour blue is lucky, so my Deathskulls army all wear something blue (although all different shades of blue) - a helmet, trousers, weapon or whatever. Even if your army represents a Waagh of many clans, and units are in many different colours, it's still good to give them all something in common visually, to help the army feel like they belong together.
