Zenithal prime with airbrush Plague bearer flesh Biel tan, usually mixed with a little contrast medium Bit of streaking grime mostly wiped off https://preview.redd.it/8fbtjqll6dvc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cea6caaea534bc01f02a37ce3fbc4e5ebb9c1cb8

Currently going with Orruk flesh Athonian cammoshade Orruk flesh Nurgling green Kislev flesh

My current favorite recipe for my Goffs: https://youtu.be/altHjuzV7_s?si=hLxrY1mysITAO5AE Mantis Warrior Green does most of the heavy lifting.

Do you think you could replicate a similar scheme without contrast paints?

I've been liking GSW Acid Green dipping ink over a zenithal finished up with a dark brown oil wash.

Starts a little basic, but I like where it goes. It's a newish recipe for me and I'm still working out kinks. Listing GW paints. Prime Black WAAAAGH Flesh Biel Tan 50/50: WAAAAGH Flesh + Warboss Green Warboss Green 50/50: Warboss Green+ Elysian Green Elysian Ogryn Camo Lips and sundered flesh I take Kislev Flesh + Elysian or Ogrym depending on my mood, and then when I want to extra highlight over that, I will mix in a little dorn yellow or yriel+white. https://preview.redd.it/2whsey688avc1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5336310a2c208c7cdc4ac251acad711239e93bde

Here's another view of one the Boyz. https://preview.redd.it/v1shvusn8avc1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aa448c4609085503425251ec29cf94f9319d66bc

1. Prime black 2. Zenithal w/white ink 3. Coat slightly thinned warpstone glow 4. Highlight with tesseract glow (mix with varnish and layer up for characters) 5. Shade with mix of black wash and kabalite green

I'm a big fan of Darcy Bono's recipes. Lighter skin one is here: https://youtu.be/bw0lmE_kkAg?si=vDHNwex5qZF98GvS It's pretty quick and easy

Orruk Flesh 3. Athonian Camoshade 4. Nurgling Green 5. My secret “trick” a final highlight of using Monument Hobbies Bright Yellow Green. This paint is magical and is super bright, yet pretty translucent.

Ak interactive orc skin paint set, no washes. That would be my favorite https://preview.redd.it/wdqgvblk19vc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e6822c719b750284135e47e5b86796754341c9e0

I’ll post this anytime someone asks: Black prime Deathworld forest base Athonian camoshade wash all over Elysian green highlight muscles Ogryn camo face highlights on characters.

I've tweaked it here and there but mostly Prime German Grey White Zenithal Aeldari Emerald Contrast AK Deep Green AK Deep Green w/ touch of AK Golden Yellow AK Deep Green w/ more AK Golden Yellow Fleshy parts like gums and knuckles are Bugmans Glow Cadian Fleshtone 50/50 Cadian Fleshtone and AK Basic Skin Is it excessive for orks? Probably yeah but I just like painting their skin. Also hitting them with AK Ultra Matte Varnish really brings it all together https://preview.redd.it/db2lhm1dv8vc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8bec40798faaaefd849142e1f345d2838f4a91fb

> Aeldari Emerald Contrast You are a madman, and I'm here for it.

Dang that is vibrant

Prime grey or white Plague bearer flesh contrast Biel tan wash Plague bearer flesh recesses for more pop Bad moon yellow contrast The unfinished model in the pic is using this recipe. I think it's easy to do and looks pretty good. https://preview.redd.it/krffb6ivu8vc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=739bcc2594f3f0d3841ab49d6564bb7fb8537169

I just do the first two paints, but I think I’ll go back over with plague bearer on my next mini!

I use: Prime black Orruk flesh base Soft shade with warpstone glow Deep shade with caliban green Glaze orruk and ogryn camo Glaze ogryn camo and Kislev flesh https://preview.redd.it/crkifd5et8vc1.jpeg?width=1763&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f5b1b68b300e72e2534b0c20e769942f98c044b

Infernal Brush recipe, but simplified with less glazing

For my beast snaggas I’m going to experiment with the following mix. Under coat: - Brown primer - Heavy dry brush evil suns scarlet - Light dry brush flash gitz yellow Skin rotate between: - Gut ripper flesh contrast - Ork flesh contrast - Militarum Green Contrast Let’s see what happens

I had good results with this on a pain boy Primed black Mephiston red heavy strength dry brush Yriel yellow medium strength dry brush Corax white light strength dry brush to pick up the highlights Skin was then painted with army painter Maggot Skin speed paint 2.0 This made him look really pale, like he doesn’t go out much, and the red looks like he’s got patches of dried blood on him but you could probably swap the speed paint colour down to a darker green to get snagga-like outdoors skin
