The hero of 'The Mighty Madcaps' team. I'm not entirely sure he can be trusted, but I really dig the sculpt.
Ork Skin
- Basecoat with a mix of Averland Sunset and Skarsnik Green . I make the ratio about 1:1, but add a little more Skarsnik Green , so it reads as green and not yellow.
- Shade recesses with Biel-Tan Green . Use a combination of glazing and traditional recess shading.
- Run small amounts of Coelia Greenshade into deep recesses with a fine brush. Mix in a little Contrast Medium if you want to make it easier to handle.
- Add general highlights to the skin with Ogryn Camo .
- Now apply fine highlights with Krieg Khaki .
- Glaze Kislev Flesh over ear tips, lips, the nose, knuckles and elbows.
- Add final selective and specular highlights of 1:1 Screaming Skull and White .
Red Eyes
- Basecoat with Khorne Red .
- Paint the inner part of the eye with Evil Sunz Scarlet .
- Paint a small highlight of Troll Slayer Orange in the middle of the eye, to represent the iris.
- Finish with an even smaller, specular highlight of Ice Yellow .
Teeth
- Pick out teeth with Rhinox Hide , using this as shading too.
- Pick out the majority of the tooth with Zandri Dust .
- Highlight teeth with Screaming Skull .
- Selectively highight with Wraithbone .
- Add very small/specular highlights with White .
Black Trenchcoat
- Basecoat with Black .
- Glaze with 4:1 Abaddon Black and Kantor Blue . The aim here is to cover most of the cloth, avoiding recesses and pulling your brush towards adges. I like to do this in scratchy lines to add texture.
- Take the above colour and mix it 1:1 with Administratum Grey . Ad general highlights using scratchy lines like above. Make these highlights fatter than your normal chunky highlight, and feel free to throw in an occasional larger "scratch".
- Mix the paint from the above step 1:1 again, then apply chunky highlight within the previous stage. Keep them scratchy still.
- Take even more Administratum Grey and mix it 1:1 with the paint from the last stage. The colour should now be similar in tone to Dawnstone . Use this pain to edge highlight everything.
- Enhance the previous stages highlights with selective highlights of pure Administratum Grey .
- Finish with very small/specular highlights of Grey Seer .
Stitching
- Basecoat with Steel Legion Drab .
- Edge highlight with Karak Stone .
- Selectively highlight with 1:1 Karak Stone and White .

Chequered Pattern
- Basecoat with Black .
- Pick out the pattern with 1:1 Celestra Grey and White
- Shade around recesses of the white area with Administratum Grey .
- Define the recesses further with a small amount of Dawnstone .
- Highlight with small amounts of White .
- Add small highlights to the black squares with The Fang .
- Apply selective highlights of Blue Horror if/where needed.
Red Cloth
- Basecoat with 1:1 Khorne Red & Doombull Brown .
- Mix Khorne Red & Abaddon Black 1:1, thin it down and shade the recesses.
- Highlight with a 1:1 mix of your base colour and Jokaero Orange .
- With pure Jokaero Orange add fine highlights.
- Selectively highlight with 1:1 Jokaero Orange and Ushabti Bone .
