Incredible job! Your solution to making the black pieces look separate from the black trousers is quite excellent!

[@kiralynn72]

You've got a nice clear voice, pretty good brush control, you didn't rush things, great camera work, and some handy tips ... excellent tutorial 😊

[@samv.l.5819]

Thx man, finally someone with a good and concrete tutorial on how to paint the yellow armor and the green skin well, I've been searching for these techniques for like weeks now, almost. Cheers brother

[@kaibe5241]

This is a really nice tutorial - in particular I love the green. It looks really "natural" (if that makes sense) haha

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Glad you liked it, it was my intention to go for a much more realistic skin tone than the bright green colour that you usually see!

[@ainsleysspicymeat5100]

Nice! I really like how you did the yellow armour its just like your imperial fists.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Jacob Simpson Yep, I'm a big fan of technique and will probably be the only way I'll paint yellow in the future.

[@aZnTimy]

Do more age of sigmar tutorials!!! Your videos make learning to paint much easier!

[@flame1470]

All of your tutorials are incredible

[@metis_9]

Great tutorial, thanks! Would love to see a tutorial for Gordrakk, The Fist of Gork atop a Maw Krusha :).

[@PlayBoye86]

Specially the skin and the "rust" is really really nice !

[@willroarty1512]

You should totally do a Gordrakk tutorial. Awesome job by the way.

[@artnickles5095]

I love your painting videos. They are really solid, well done sire well done indeed!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Art Nickles Thank you kindly good sir!

[@Booooom513]

This is the best orkish skin i have ever seen and i have seen a lot

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Booooom513 Thank you :D I've always preferred the dark olive for Ork skin so I thought I would share my method.

[@9glr]

that was one good tutorial :-) im going to use the zandi dust and so on for my imperial fists, so thanks again. greetings from Denmark

[@Protosito]

This is definetly the armor i will paint, loved it, thanks a lot for the video man, 10/10

[@playmusic5978]

Great video! You should also always paint blood on the swords and axes when you paint orcs!

[@funnyfarmsted]

Thanks this helped I now know what colours I need

[@evereybonifacio2745]

Really enjoyed watching that Ironjawz painting tutorial. Wasn't too crazy about the yellow color scheme but your method made it pop. Loved that you used Deathworld Forest, stracken green and athonian camoshade for the skin.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thanks, I've always preferred to paint my Orks with a more olive skin tone than the forest green that GW goes for so I thought I would share my technique.

[@chrisdew9449]

Great tutorial. Has been really helpful for painting my ironjawz army.

[@ltjamescoopermason8685]

Awesome video and your one he'll of a painter or artist !

[@riddcowler8547]

Just getting in to AOS with Ironjawz and using this tutorial as it’s the best I’ve come across. Thank you.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Glad it helped!

[@Xcm-yg1vv]

The Death world forest skin looks awesome.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thanks, I've always preferred the more olive skin tone over the bright green one.

[@moraleshtc]

Wou...i like a lot how you made the yellow color

[@leew8812]

Keep this stuff going TWG. I'm finding it great to watch and definitely helping me get back into miniature painting. Cheers !

[@PeteTheWargamer]

You're welcome, thanks for the comment and good luck with the painting!

[@LenzTheMenz]

Just to let people know. Or even you @The War Gamer. Using a conversion chart your primer is actually more like Citadel Ushabti Bone. Zhandri dust is a bit darker. Nice video though, picked up some casandora yellow today so I am looking forward to painting!

[@achtbit0]

Thanks for this detailed tutorial. So much fun to watch. Glad to join you on patreon.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thanks so much 😊

[@jamesmartin6737]

Wow.. I haven’t been into a Games Workshop store since 94 or 95. They have obviously come a long way since then, but I really thinking getting back into it. I still am fascinated with the Orks, now Orruks, but I think I’m going to pick up some Bonesplittaz and some Ironjawz. To be completely honest, I just miss painting. Either way, love the paint job man! I’ll definitely be checking out much more of your channel in the days ahead!

[@Mr_Secondaries]

I know that I'm a year late but...after some experimenting, the closest paint to "Army Painter's Skeleton Bone Primer" is "Citadel Paint's Ushabti Bone" not "Zhandri Dust". Zhandri dust WILL work, but it after being washed, it comes out as a VERY dark yellow..."Ushabti Bone" when washed comes out exactly like the video.

[@Nerdypugminatures]

Great video as always me and my brother play different games but both play bolt action these videos have helped us increase our painting skills keep up the great work and can't wait till the next video !😁😀😄

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+ElvaanRanger I'm glad my tutorials are helping you out :D

[@barneymatherly3685]

Great tutorial! Thank you. These AOS models are really nice.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

They are, making this tutorial inspired me to get a whole force of Ironjawz together :)

[@MrStingray075]

Just discovered your channel and watched this video. Loved it. The olive tone to the skin and the rich yellow armour that is not too stark is great. Gonna see what other videos you have made. :)

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Good to hear! Hope you enjoyed my other videos as well

This looks great!

[@SpiritLinkFilms]

Amazing way to paint the yellow armour, thanks for sharing! Going to be much smoother ride to paint up all the ardboys now :D hihi

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Spiritlink Thanks, it's so much quicker and easier than applying 5 coats of Yriel Yellow :)

[@freymannazar5857]

Really awesome ! The skin and the armour (and the rest too) look really great ! Thank you for the tutorial and good continuation man ! :)

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thank you, as I've said to others I much prefer a more olive skin tone for Orks. It just feels more natural to me.

[@freymannazar5857]

And I am completely agree with you. The usually "green skin" looks like... "paint" for me, not a good skin :) ps: Sorry for my bad english, my maternal language is french, but I try to ameliorate my Shakespeare's tongue ! :p

[@Jinrash]

Thx for this very cool paint tutorial!

[@ralex3697]

Very nicely done

[@thewannabepainter1]

Great tutorial. Just about to start my ironjawz army so will be going for a similar paint scheme. A bit difficult finding some vallejo equivalents for the blue pieces of armour.

[@easygrin1127]

Wish I had a use for these guys I only got Warhammer quest the original and silver tower and shadows over hammerhall and shadespire. I've got the warchanter orruk guy and the Ardboyz team for shadespire but I would love these.

[@IDICBeer]

Lovely job man

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+IDICBeer Thank you very much

[@nehalpatel9024]

This is a great tutorial, well done!

[@whulfri8890]

Fantastic tutorial! You helped me a lot! Thanks!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Master Dwalin Your welcome, thanks for commenting!

[@Ser_Jokki]

Absolutely brilliant as always! The skin is perfect (spot-on alternative to using "Warboss Green"!), and the armour is such a perfect application of glaze paints - along with your other videos, illustrating similar techniques. Absolutely stellar, keep it up! =D Edit: *correction - wash! Not glaze, my bad. Nonetheless - amazing result!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Jokiva I've always had a preference towards the more olive ork skin as opposed to the dark green that we often see so I thought I would share my technique in this video.

[@Ser_Jokki]

+The War Gamer And I'm very glad you did! While I don't have a lot of experience with orks, I've always used the more "traditional" Warboss Green method, but after seing this, I'll definitely have to try this out - same goes for the armour! As always, keep up the good stuff! =D

[@osd29]

beautiful work ! Good job!

[@ta24u]

Gorgeous man I love every bit of it simply beautiful, in an Ork way ha

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+ta24u Thanks bud :)

[@FLSheepdog]

Pete, if you have any interest in revisiting this with a speed painting mindset, that would be really appreciated.

[@ViktorDavidsson]

Great video. Substitute for straken green. Don't have that color

[@NachodelPozo]

Great tutorial! Congrats! I am applying it to my brand new ironjawz army and it looks outstanding! Thank you so much!!! ^^ For future tutorials... How about Goddrak? I would love to learn to paint the dragon in green 😁

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thanks for the suggestion :)

[@hargorin_537]

Thanks

[@aanler]

Excellent!

[@porcu12345]

Love the skin & armour, not to keen on those highlights on the trousers though. I suppose they'd look just fine from across the table but i'd have wet blended the highlights on the trousers and gone with a darker more blue-toned grey like Dark Reaper.

[@brianleclaire5886]

I was thinking the same thing. That or tone it down using Eshin Grey and mechanicus as the highest highlight.

[@DominicFawver]

another way would have been to hit it with nuln oil. Being a black wash it would have toned down and blended those highlights very nicely.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Hawken Valhalla The effect I was going for was a shiny black leather hence the quite harsh highlights. But I agree, if I was painting black cloth I would probably have gone for an eshin grey or dark reaper instead (as I've used in my Kairic Acolyte tutorial)

[@droppod101]

Incredible! Thank you so much!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Lead-Weight Your very much welcome

[@droppod101]

+The War Gamer For info the link to your patreon has a 404 error. Also, any change of a ghouls/flesh eater courts tutorial? GW haven't released a painting guide/paint splatter and I'm sure a lot of folks (me included) would be interested!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Lead-Weight Thanks for the heads up, it should be working now :) Unfortunately I don't have any plans to tackle the flesh eater courts just yet, as at the moment I'm only doing tutorials for miniatures I have as part of my own collections.

[@elliotjones6822]

Great job

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Thank you :D

[@stevemurphy1364]

This video became the scheme for my 3500 points of Ironjawz in the end!

[@theophile4043]

Masterpiece.. !

[@davea99]

this is awesome!

[@garybartlett2064]

Do a speed painting for ironjawz please

[@Rickibob]

Hey, just a question, So i had to go the zandri dust way, should i base something else before using casandora yellow? Im trying different ways to try and get your fantastic yellow, but cant really seem to get there with the zandri dust.

[@davea99]

I love the yellow technique. About how many coats of yellow wash do you use? Do you have a harder time with flatter parts of armor, like the Orc Ardboys?

[@chriswebb6867]

Great tut. Noob question though - how should you apply the primer to the head/armour plates if these are seperate from the main body? Advice/help plz!

[@thebarber21]

What did you use to stick the model to the cap before you stuck it to the base? Love the tutorial! 👍🏻

[@leaguenc878]

can you please do a seraphon paint of some sort. PLEASE!

[@greendark2000]

great job!!!

[@서상권-j8j]

It looks really nice. I think zandri dust basecoat is darker than your basecoat. Can I ask what do you use for basecoat?

[@MajinBradPrime2]

That’s it, I’m collecting Orcs!

[@tommytjarnberg1474]

Awesome tutorial, keep up the good work! :) Would the end result differ if I would use the Zandri dust undercoat spray from GW instead of the army painter? :)

[@PeteTheWargamer]

They would be pretty similar but the yellow would possibly be a little less bright due to Zandri Dust being darker than Skeleton Bone.

[@MrElliptific]

outstanding tutorial. Is there room to replace the washes with contrast paint in 2019 or it would not work?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Most definitely! You could easily switch out the Cassandora Yellow for some Iyanden Yellow

[@kakurof]

Hand me a bottle of water please... I'm dying of first!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Scattered Dice Haha

[@TwinComplex]

Thank you for all your tutorial videos! Your yellow looks really nice, on the other hand I don't want yellow armor on mine (cause I don't like yellow in general). What scheme do you think will fit nicely your grey-bluish shoulder scheme? I was thinking about red but I fear the miniature to be too dark... Thanks :)

[@PeteTheWargamer]

You need a bright colour to contrast against the dark shoulder pad so red would work really nicely. Be wary however as it can make Orks look a little 'Christmassy' if you use a more forest green colour for their skin. If you do go for red armour I would recommend following similar steps to those I used in my Word Bearers tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2qWc6N4qpZ3q9E

[@TwinComplex]

Thank you for your advices! Btw your deathworld green skin is the best green skin I've ever seen, so I will use it :p I'll take a look at your Word Bearers, thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

[@TwinComplex]

Thanks to this video and your Word Bearers video, I managed to find a paint scheme to my orruk. There is some details to improve, and some mistakes because I'm a begginer, but hey, I have a result: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/38544922/first_orruk.jpg Thank you again :)

[@davea99]

what do you thin your metallics with? For some reason mine tend to always clump up, even if using water.

[@Ge4rsofWar]

Question, If i were to paint these in their red colourscheme (for the armor) Would you advise using a red primer? (mephiston red) Im not really sure how to deathworld forest would fair onto the red primer.. Thanks in advance :)

[@metis_9]

Thanks for the tutorial - question though. What was the Lamia medium (spelling) you mentioned? I couldn't find it in the list?

[@metis_9]

Watched on - found it! :)

[@kevinzimmer9815]

WAAAGH!!!

[@cmcg7156]

WAAAAGHHHHHHHH!

[@davisa894]

nice work! are you just using sticky tack to hold the pieces on top of those paint bottles?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Yep, it's a great home made miniature holder :)

[@beadb82]

Mine turns out a dull orangish zandri. Yours looks great! Honestly, it's the best I've seen. Any tips on my color issue?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Try Ushabti bone instead of the Zandri dust or go for the Army Painters Skeleton Bone Primer / Warpaint.

[@beadb82]

great suggestion. It looks MUCH better. Really appreciate the help.

[@anderslundtoft2315]

DId you repaint it with Ushabti bone instead of Zandri to get a good result on the Yellow armor?

[@perche26]

hi, you mix the casandora yellow with water?, i try that method with vallejo bonewhite and casandora and i get a dark orange.

[@LovoAle]

uhm great tutorial but my yellow is not so vivid, I tried on skeleton bone and also zandri dust but yellow it's too "brown"

[@PeteTheWargamer]

It's been a while since I made this video but if I were to do it it again I would probably use the new Iyanden Yellow Contrast paint over the new Wraithbone paint, that would probably give a more vivid result.

[@kristopps3]

Do you thin down your washes or apply as is?

[@goblinnest2363]

Great vid - but i tried using Zandri dust, and boy that does not work. it doesn't turn yellow at all... any advice? i use GW paints

[@PeteTheWargamer]

You will probably need to use a stronger wash of Casandora Yellow over Zandri dust to get a Yellow effect as it is darker than Skeleton Bone. Although it won't be as bright as applying over a bone colour. Alternatively you could paint over each of the armour panels with Screaming Skull first then wash with Casandora Yellow.

[@elliotjones6822]

Could you try a diffrent war clan colours

[@PeteTheWargamer]

I may do in the future, but out of preference would rather tackle some AoS miniatures that I haven't already covered in some form.

[@ronraducanu9633]

Quick question, sir. How much of the head are you painting before attaching it to the body? Just basecoats to get the colors right once you highlight or painting it completely before attaching it?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

The only important things to paint before attaching it to the body are the tongue, inside of the mouth and the teeth. Once these harder to reach areas are done then you can attach the head.

[@ronraducanu9633]

Great! Thx!

[@A-Name304]

About the spray, wont Zandri Dust Spray from GW work just as fine? When you say first a primer then zandri? Dont you just coat with Zandri dust spray?

[@TylerNGOakley]

Yea that would work just fine.

[@halogu117]

yay!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Jeff Phillips I believe 'WAAAAGH!' is the word you are looking for :P

[@eddtheducky]

How does this Yellow technique work for larger areas (such as a imperial fist tank), is it suitable? If not - what paints would you recommend for a larger surface area?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

I'm yet to try it on a larger area but traditionally washes can be tricky on large flat areas. I would instead recommend a basecoat of Averland Sunset followed by a wash of the Cassandora yellow and highlighted with and Yriel Yellow then Dorn Yellow for the sharp corners.

[@christianfejer7188]

What primer did you use and why?

[@anderslundtoft2315]

COuld you just spray prime it with skullwhite from GW? Or would it make a huge impact on the final results?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

A white basecoat might just make things look a little too pale, more 'lemon yellow' than a bright yellow.

[@avoidconfusion]

How long did it take to paint that model end to end?

[@ronraducanu9633]

A couple of the Glazes you use in your vids aren't available anymore from GW. The yellow one you use in this vid and an orange one you use in another vid. Can you offer some alternatives or recipes to make them please?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Casandora yellow and fuegan orange? I can still find them on the GW site they are just in the larger sized pots now.

[@ronraducanu9633]

Hmmmm, I looked under their "Glazes" and didn't see them. Are they under a different category? Thanks for the reply!

[@PeteTheWargamer]

+Ron Raducanu take a look under shades and you should find them :P

[@ronraducanu9633]

Thank you, kindly!

[@steffennielsen7209]

quick question do you apply more washes of the Yellow to the armor or just one ?

[@PeteTheWargamer]

It's down to personal preference really. Apply one wash, let it dry and if you're not happy with the yellow give it another coat.

[@steffennielsen7209]

@@PeteTheWargamer allright thank you sir. but what did you do on this mini ?

[@paul-philippp.7578]

What do you use to attach the parts on the color flasks? Greetings

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Just plain old Blu-Tac/Poster Adhesive.

[@beadb82]

I love it. However when I used the sepia over zandri dust it didn't turn a nice yellow at all. Any ideas? I primed white.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

Did you wash over with seraphim sepia or casandora yellow?

[@beadb82]

oops I meant to say casadora like you used.

[@anderslundtoft2315]

I would love to know more about what you did to make it better.. I was thinking about using a white prime myself

[@abelruizrevert309]

Colour for spray primer? Please

[@newdev76]

You can paint this orruks with TAP Warpaints range?

[@WarBoy87]

Yes
