Ork boyz, part 3

Layers 3 and 4 done. Some kind of definition is starting to show. Only two layers left on the skin, and each layer goes a lot faster than the last. When I get the metal and yellow areas basecoated these guys will start to look playable. Can't wait!

5 shades of green

Tonight I amused myself with timing each Ork as I laid down the second layer of green. It takes consistently around 2 minutes per Ork and layer. Think I have to cut down on quality... :)

Got to be startin' somethin'

So my AoBR warboss is painted and done. I followed the 'Eavy Metal masterclass pdf that details the painting of that very model, albeit with a bit more conversions going on. Turns out I loved the new techniques I learnt so much that I feel I should put them to use.
So here goes nothing. Batch one is 22 boyz, with 4 more incoming as soon as an eBay purchase for 4 pairs of legs arrive (the boxes have bits for them but no legs). Not much to see yet, just the skin basecoat laid down. Working on 22 detailed models at once is a daunting task. Enjoy!

Contemptor done

Finally! I actually learnt some new techniques on this one, plus it was super fun to build. I also really hate my gold paints, I have to I get me some of those new GW pots. Anyhoo, here it is. Hope you like it.


Here's an imgur album with more angles:

OOP is the new black

One oldschool powerfist sergeant I bought on the cheap on the Internet. Good stuff. Painted in one evening.

Greenskinstuffing

Using the Citadel sculpting tool and some water I was able to get this AoBR warboss arm in a much more gangsta-like pose. Happy with the results! Now to let it cure over night...

PS. Why do I sculpt on an Ork? They are my secret passion... ;)

All her children

So the basecoats are done on the regular termagaunts. I'll sleep some on the highlighting; right now I'm thinking drybrushing is the way to go.
