Geoff Ozzy Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'm feeling a bit bored of Green... so I'm looking for some ideas and colors (GW or Vallejo) to do a non-green Orruk/IronJaws skin color scheme. Some of the ideas I had were doing them in an orange'ish theme or doing them in a sand-skin theme. I've attached two pictures below and was hoping for some thoughts on how to achieve these results or if anyone has any other color ideas! Thanks and I appreciate everyone reading my first Topic Post!

Donal Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Because I run a Beastclaw inspired destrcution list I went for a pale coloured army with blue base. Here are my three WiP models. When I expand to Orruk/Ironjaws models I will be painting them in a similar theme. it looks visually quite stark on the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Ozzy Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 Thanks Donal! I hadn't considered a blue/white'ish theme. It's always good to see what other people are up to in their hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulsmith Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 You could experiment using washes over white, that would help with the red tones in the second picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Try and find @Cowboy Boots Matt's thread in this sub forum. I think his scheme is based on your first pic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Ozzy Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Thanks @Soulsmith and @Chris Tomlin I'm going to do some test mini's and see what works best. @Cowboy Boots Matt's scheme seems to be exactly what I was looking for, although it would be great to hear how he got the results and what colours he used!

mrstimpson38 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I'd love to do albino Orruks some day. Probably with jet black armour, ala Raven Guard. Have them be deep cave dwellers that are in cahoots with a Death faction in some way.Sent from my Z958 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Schmidt Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I've been thinking about doing my Orruks with reddish or purpleish skin. I like the idea that they are all over the place and often have different traits based on the region they are from. The realms are a big place!

Kessler Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I absolutely love the pale orruks from this page: http://taleofpainters.blogspot.com.ee/2017/01/wip-age-of-sigmar-ironjawz-brutes.html?m=1#more Very evil true orcish look .

Well this post is old but I really like the red skintone, what colors did you use? I currently painted my bonesplitterz in wraithbone and put blood angels red contrast on top, but I want to highlight the muscles a little more.
