So I have taken a very long break from 40k, actually I have gotten out of 40k and sold all my other armies. But having been involved with the hobby for so long I knew I would come back to it every once and awhile I decided to keep my Orks. It has been at least a couple years since I did any painting so I am a little rusty, after seeing these pictures I need to go and touch up some highlights and add some that I missed but I am still happy with it.

Before paint


After

Whoa, that guy looks fantastic! Definitely needs highlighting up and touches here and there, but other than that he looks stunning! Any ideas on basing, or possibly.. making more?

Thanks. Not really sure on the basing yet, maybe desert with some rocks. I actually have two more of these built, just need to pick up some primer so I can start paint.

He is awesome!!!! How did you paint his flesh? The tone is amazing.

I think you need to layer up his skin and paint his eyes, then do the base and job's a good 'un! Excellent conversion.
