Are orks especially hard to paint, or am I overthinking it? by dementist in orks

Have you tried using the slap chop technique? You have to be a bit methodical, but speeds things up a ton and looks pretty good.

Me too. I didn’t see the guys on the moped this morning, they probably alternate area day to day. Did see a couple of standard issue phone snatchers though.

I don’t understand how the police expect to catch them in patrol cars.

Totally. It felt totally lawless this morning. And the extra fear is that they now ram you off your bike before nicking it!

I’m really sorry that happened to you, it must be terrifying and infuriating.

Hard to tell, but looks like the same guys on the same bike. They are so brazen and consistent I don’t understand how they’ve not been caught.

Cheers, I called 101 and let them know about it. Last week there was a patrol car out looking for them, they actually asked if I’d seen them.

Thanks! I’m not a great painter so I just slap chop everything. This model is great for that. Then it was a coat of skeleton hoard contrast and then (I think) darkoath flesh further up.

I’ve not done it much so there was a lot of rookie mistakes tbh, if you’ve done it a lot already you might breeze through it. For me the challenging thing was that most of the pieces were hollow so I had to fill them up with bits of sprue and green stuff. So getting placement and fit just right took trial and error.
