MeridarchGekkota Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Anyone got any cool alternate orruk skin colours they'd like to share? I've got some as part of my advent calendar (one savage orruk per bit :') ) so I'm interested in painting them up in something other than green.

Avatar Rage Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I see a lot of terquise orcs. But honestly you should just paint em up whatever colour you like. Throw caution to the wind, paint em gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vastus Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I'm not sure what colors they come in lorewise, but one random idea I had was for ashen-skinned savage orcs with warpaint that sort of mimick lava streams and obsidian weapons, could be Aqshy-themed even.

kenshin620 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Orruks/Orks tend to look pretty good in a variety of colors. Some 40k examples Ive found.

Kind of like the Blackrock Orcs from warcraft? They got dark/ash skin tones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killamike Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I reckon have a look at the wow orc tribes. Some good earthy choices there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramer Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I’m thinking of a killteam style brute squad to skirmish with blackish skin. Paint the shadows purple and work up to grey edges. I tested it on Garreks reavers but it ended up too light. Second model much better but don’t have the picture. (miniwargaming has a free purple skin tutorial which I used). In my head it will work amazing for orks*... real life... not sure yet * might just paint them black with a white dot as autocorrect keeps changing orruk to orka 🤨 (Dutch for killer whale) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olincay Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I always wanted to do a red skin theme inspired by fel orcs from world of warcraft. But instead of using it on a orc army i switched the theme over to a tzaangor tzeentch army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
