This is the guide I was looking for! Simple, looks good, and obtainable results! All the other guides I watched were so complex and way too many steps. I want them to looks good but I don't want each model to take all day. Thank you so much! I plan on coming back for your troll guide also.
I used to have some similar issues, clasping my hands together and a smaller paint brush has helped me out. Painting slower will save me a lot of time of going back and forth!
Great tutorial mate! What I like to do at times is dry brush the armour with leadbelcher, makes a nice combination between the black and metal, very orc-like!
This is indeed an effective method for sure! Using Iron Warriors instead of Leadbelcher also creates a great dark-armour effect. Thankfully Orcs aren't particularly uniform, so mixing methods creates a great mixture of models. Makes them look like a right mob, as they should be!
Thanks for the guide! Looks simple and easy for line painting 10 or so at a time! Given the chance would you go back and edge highlight the armor or just leave it as is with the nuln oil?
If you batch a unit of 12, by the time you've finished the red each one, the first one will be dry and you can move on to the next model. Using this method you can paint them pretty quickly. As an alternative way of painting the silver, you can drybrush it on straight over the black - see the Moria Goblin painting Tutorial to see how to do it. Comes out nicely.
@@criticalhitwargaming5290 Thanks mate! Think I actually prefer the darker look drybrushing gives for the Orcs. Haven't painted any minis in years and my wife has just got me some for Xmas, so the tutorial is spot on!
@@criticalhitwargaming5290 Morannon Orcs. Got 12 primed ready to go, but I'm tempted to leave the other 12 and possibly have a go at kit bashing them so I don't have too many identical ones. I'm scared that she's just started me off on an expensive hobby haha!
@@JJCGE Mixing which ones have shields/don't have Shields and painting them slightly differently is usually sufficient. They're such small models at 25mm that you don't really notice the duplicates.

I was looking around and your guides are just so simple and it makes me not feel overwhelmed

@@not_joshin3257 Glad it helped buddy!
Always need more orc tutorials. And fast too! Great stuff
I find it so hard to get the base colours on without going over on other coloured areas and having to repaint that area
Brace your arms on a table or lock your wrists together to steady your hands when you're painting. That may help!

this is great!... painted the oathbreakers yesterday... now on to the orcs... this is exactly what i was looking for! nice one.
Its perfection at its finest

Indeed!

Can you do one for regular orcs?
I can indeed! Got 24 of them to paint, so they're on the list.
awesome tutorial! it's helping me out a lot. what colours would you use for the models with hair? im mainly using waaagh flesh for the skin
I'd vary them, most with black, but some with Rhinox Hide shaded with Nuln Oil.
Super clear tutorial mate, thanks! How long should I leave between each coat?

Thanks bro. I struggle with the teeth tho lol.
@Amamiyacasual ignore them then mate! Hard to see anyways.
Forgot the back of the legs mate
No really good looking. You have to spend more time.
Well, you can spend some more time on them then, eh? For those who don't have a lot of time, here is one of many many options to paint some Orcs. 🙂
