So....I'm undertaking some of the Ork Waaagh of Doom for Makari and I thought I'd journal my way through these 30 Boyz as they are painted to a table top standard. If I paint a stage it means all 30 are painted through that part. Look for more updates soon.

After sand base, clean up, drilling out the gun barrels, and priming here are a few of the boyz relaxing in front of my bits box.

STAGE 1.

This is a drybrush of Tin bitz on the metallic parts. I'm doing the metals first because they are messy. metal flakes get everywhere when you drybrush even if you are careful where you put the brush.

As you can see I went for my big brush. The small brush if for spots I can't reach.

Stage 2.

Drybrush Boltgun. Not much different then stage one except a little lighter on the application.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 293855708_KPwAs-O

Stage 3.

Base coat the base. I use craft paint otherwise I'd be spending a fortune when doing base work. Sand holds a lot of paint so I recommend going cheap.

It will be quick and dirty 3 layer painting. I've got a recipe I used on the bikers/Trukk that is new w/ the Orkhide foundation color.

However, I've used several different green skin recipes through the last 4 years. Here are just a few.

mid yellow green to yellow and shade down
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 War%20Troll%20003

mid tone yellow Green to white and shade down
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 Spider%20rider%20004

Start dark (DA green maybe) and move up to mid tones
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 Img4580e0f511191


Mid tone Green/yellow, shade w/ red brown (counter shading)
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 Img45af605599d23

MidDark tone w/ more green, up to yellows, counter shade w/ red brown.

Stage4.
Drybrush w/ a medium grey.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 294549213_2qfpy-O

Stage 5. Drybrush with a light grey
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 294549219_k4qUd-O

Stage 6.
Clean up the black on the pants and hit any areas that were missed during priming. Line the base - in this case w/ Red/Black VMC.
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 294549224_An9Am-O

Stage 7 Ork flesh. I tried the Orkhide shade but since it wasn't a dropper I had issues w/ how viscous it was. I changed to VMC black/Green (identical in color IMO) which I could thin and apply more rapidly w/ control.
You can see after just applying the green these are really starting to be Orcish.

On these Orks the focal point is the face and gun (since the gun is positioned central). Extra attention will be given to those areas (even though the models are table top) and other spots (pants and shoes) will see very little love. Ork faces w/ especially w/ bright teeth always look good.

Posse to date.

I bet you have the same painting time available as I do. Very Happy

95% of my painting is between 3 am and 6 am. I sleep from about 10pm getting 5 to 6 hours.

I guess it is a bit of a sleep disorder but I can't go back to bed usually. So instead of channel surfing I force myself to the basement to paint.
The problem (if you want to call it that) began with the kids. All 3 would wake up between 1 and 4 am for a feeding. I always took the shift so the wife could sleep. No it is habitual. I wake up and the kids stay in bed.

- Father of 4 yr, 2.5 yr, and 6 month old.


However, I do assemble when the kids are up and moving.

Stage 11 Leathers

Hit the Leather again w/ the base coat. See the nice shading between them now.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661661_Np27k-O

Yellow Leather Highlight 1 is a 50:50 of flat brown and Ochre brown.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661667_8y4oh-O

Highlight 2 on the yellow is a 10:90 mix of Flat and Ochre Brown.
Shown from the back for a little more effect.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661669_ywZ5h-O

The Red leather is hit w/ Rust Brown as an extreme highlight (edges only).

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661673_a2cpP-O

Stage 12 Reds


Hit the Red Black with Gory Red.
Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661678_LXnLW-O

Highlight again w/ Bloody Red - there will be one more highlight (maybe 2 after this. The reds are a real focal area. I like them to look good as they help the models standout.

Ork Boyz Journal - Update 3    5/16/08 295661682_WRR2w-O


Here are the troops to date..... The Nob and Heavy Weapon have their skin done as well. So far 18 of 30 have been taken through STAGE 12. Even with a dark cruddy photo the Reds and white teeth let you know the WAAAGGGH is on the way.

Some folks are visual learners. It's not thick skulled. Also, it is easier in person b/c it is technique as well as process.
