How to Paint Ork Skin - 3 Easy Methods!

Skin recipes for your orcs, orks, space orks etc, can be daunting to think of from a batch painting standpoint. But with Killteam Octarius, Dominion and the Beastsnagga box all on our minds, now seemed a great time to pass on some ideas.

3 absolutely fantastic methods. In particular I like the bright one. Just like alot of colour on Orks. I like that you snuck oils in, myself ive started using streaking grime on vehicles. But oils shouldn't be feared. For me it's gonna be on the WAAAGHHH train for a bit. Kromlech Orc parts to make some flash gits because I'm a freebooters lad at heart. Have a wonderful WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH people!

I’m getting ready to paint the Ork commandos from the Octarious box and I’m going to play around with the first method you posted. Great video!

A good method for a more realistic flesh tone is to start with a purple undercoat and layer to a desaturated green

[@krethro]

the 1st one is amazing and looks great to me thank you very much

I feel an odd sense of validation that I didn't actually want when I saw the label on your bottle of white spirits, good to know I'm not the only person to put labels on things that are amusing but utterly unhelpful to anyone other than me.

[@happyguy333]

Would not have guessed the last one was an simple oil wash and highlight from the thumbnail, definitely my favourite of the work-ups in terms of end result. I really like that paler orc flesh vibe.

[@TesseractMinis]

Cheers Greg, that ones definitely my favourite too! I think it's the less obvious colour choices that make it look more complex tbh

[@happyguy333]

@@TesseractMinis Absolutely, a blue wash over a more yellow base tone is a really smart way to do it.

Kill team, Kommando orks. First time collecting orks in my 25 years and 3 separate attempts at collecting and playing 40k. Love the vids. Keep em up mate. Chris from Australia

[@zackcook5123]

Good luck my dude. Don't be afraid to kitbash them to your preference.

Another great video . Airbrushes seem to be such a usefule tool . I want to get into Airbrushing , do you have any advice or any recommendations for a beginner airbrush and compressor set for someone to get into airbrushing?

[@TesseractMinis]

I do! Personally, I swear by the Reaper VEX brushes that I use, but they are a little pricey. A Harder & Steinbeck Evolution is a more reasonable starting point, for a gravity fed airbrush. For the compressor, there's a Timbertech model with a 1litre reserve tank, on Amazon. That's what I'd look at.

[@markhickson9087]

Love the last one with the oil wash. I'm not as keen on the first one, it looks too cartoony to me. Love the videos, keep them coming :-).

[@TesseractMinis]

Cheers Mark! Third one is my favourite, too!

[@bdreviews9295]

Stop the bus and fetch me some oils.
