first ork vechile

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

Right, Time get stuck in' wif' da' boyz

1 shot, 1 kill

mob shot, bit too shiny

diorama

C&C appreciated.
first attempt at ork skin, the mob skin was a long and boring technique of loooooong thin layers but the trukk driver and co are a simple snot green + thraka wash what you think is better?
it was long and painful but the end results were very enjoyable. the bases is a CoD distroyed ruins type but it doesnt show well in the picture. i am a lazy painter so i usually dont do
the eyes and stuff around the belly..

most favorite was thrakas head, i <3 it.

Cheers,

Nice work so far.

suggestion one.... drill out the gun barrels. you could also do this with a fine pen exacto.

suggestion two.... dont use a flash but have ample lighting.

As far as for the rest and this is only my opinion but I think they could bennefit from a simple black wash. It would help that paintjob just snap out and say really nice job.

Keep up the work and enjoy the green monkeys.

I think Twister said everything I would. I think they are painted very nicely, the only sore parts being a few mold lines and no barrels drilled out. The skin tone is very similar on both, but there still is not alot of depth. Try a nice heavy coat of Ogryn Flesh as well, so that a good bit dries in the recesses.

Ya sees 'ere, boyz? Dis 'ere be wot dem hoomies callz a "mold line."

Oi. Relly Cheezez sum ov 'em off jus' ta see it. Dat's why I leaves 'em on all me shootas.

Do yourself a favor on the next set, and clean all of your mold lines. it will add a tremendous amount to your finished minis. Especially if you're going to wash or dip them, as the was/dip will collect along the mold line.
