Hey folks, I got a Killa Kan I've primed with Grey Seer, but I'm not sure what to paint it as a color. Im thinking of doing some green to be honest, because that is the best color, but im conflicted if I should just make it a death skulls blue. let me know what you guys think, ok?

Do you have a full Ork army already painted? Or would be this be the start of an army?

Going from a strictly aesthetic angle, I would probably go Deathskull (since I don't actually play these days).

good question, im not really painting my minis for an army or anything, im painting for the sake of painting, and I want to get some creative juices flowing, and I figured making some mean green grot machines would be pretty good for an idea.

Paint it like R2-d2. You will not regret this .

Normally I'd say the best way to go about painting Orks is to paint them yellow and give them black flames, and I still think you should do it, but if you're leaning in the direction of Deathskulls, perhaps you may want to try your hand at basing your Kan on one klan (say, one with yellow armor and black flames) for the base paintjob and then Deathskullify it from there for that proper looted feel.
