Ork Expansion
More Green
I’ve carried on with the skin on the Grots, adding some basic highlights using a lighter shade of green.
This was a similar process to the previous step but with a slightly more thinned paint (the Warboss Green is a layer paint which seems thinner/less opaque straight from the tub anyway) and covering less of the green.
Given the number of minis and the fact that they’re troops I’ve tried to get some contrast on the minis without spending too much time on them. As expected, I found a few places where I’d missed with the first green (mainly ears it seems) but given the “hobo highlights” I was able to rectify this enough with the lighter green rather than having to revert to the original green.
Below you can see the equipment used (same as before), an example of one strip of minis painted and the full compliment of grots.
I’m debating now what to do next. I wouldn’t normally paint the metallics until later on in the process but I’mtempted as I reckon once they’re done these will look very close to being done (although there will still be a good number of steps to complete).
I’m also concious that I haven’t progressed the Stompa at all and am keen to progress both elements of the project rather than completing the Grots and then going back to the Stompa.
