Well after getting back from France I was immediately told by two members (not pointing the finger at anyone in particular ) to get painting, so that's just what I have started.... Quickly picked up a box of Ork Nobz in town and got straight to work, they have all been undercoated and I've started on the first one. More pictures later. Daniel

Niiiice. The skin looks very fungal. Thanks, I wanted it to look like the DoW II Orks, slightly yellow Cheers Major and Shostak Heres a small update... I hate taking photos they never come out right, the colours are really washed out, especially the green.

That's the feel I was going for Lemon , big and Orky! I've just pretty much finished the group, just some minor details to finish and as you may see from the photos one of the Nobs still has then loin cloth and eyes to finish etc,....

You got pretty close... I think you needed a slightly lighter starting green and you would have been about spot on with that picture

I love your Orks Cosmic, very nice shades of green and the Yellow does it for me , My Orks are more light green than yours But There Ork Nobsso they would be a darker green so I guess that makes sense? oTher wise Im re-painting mine Good Job sir, Got any more on the go? Major Downer

Nice work Cosmic - Would they be from the Deathskull Klan, or was blue just a colour you fancied doing for them? (just wondering as my Orks are also Deathskulls - a clan that seems to get less love than it deserves...)

I hadn't thought of a clan, I just liked the Blue touches to the armour like from DoW II! Thank you

very nice I do like your green, I don't much like the 'usual' green of the Orks either, I tend to do mine Camo Green worked up from Catachan Green. Its less garish than Goblin Green and looks more 'natural' for want of a better word

These look great; and I highly recommend the Deathskull clan as an excuse for lot's of modelling opportunities. In my ork collection, (yet to be painted), I have a looted Chimera which the Deathskulls nicked from a blood axe, who nicked it from a chem dog who nicked it from a...
As I said; a lot of fun to be had.

Thanks everyone glad you like them Ah okey doeky Major well once they're done let us see them! Here's some progress on the Boy'z, they arrived yesterday and I was working on them most of the afternoon... I've batch painted them, so they're still not quite done, but all that's left is the skin Highlights, and the the Highlights and washes on some extra detailing.

Great work there. Every detail seems to be perfect. But I understand about the camera, that happens.
