A step by step guide on how I paint the various ork skin tones for my custom Ork Army.
Tone 1 (Ork Boyz)
- Basecoat the skin with Militarum Green
- Highlight the skin with Ogryn Camo I used this mainly on the face, to draw focus there. I also apply this to things like the fingers etc..
Tone 2
- Basecoat the skin with Ork Flesh
- Wash the skin with a 1:2 mix of Ork Flesh & Contrast Medium
- Wash the deepest recesses of the skin with Biel-Tan Green
- Layer the skin, avoiding the recesses with Orruk Flesh
- Edge highlight the skin with Ogryn Camo make sure these highlights are relatively chunky highlights.
- Edge highlight the skin with Krieg Khaki make sure these highlights are within the Orgyn Camo highlight.
