Thanks, I think I'm still figuring out how exactly to do the warpaint thing though but this was the closest I've gotten to something that looks nice.

Me and you both brother! If you figure it out let me know! Have a look at my latest post if that helps for some more warpainting ideas I got from all these lovely folk in this subreddit!

Cheers mate

Yeah this grot is such a badass. He deserves it

The only one in my whole army so far 😆

I saw an ork army once with red handprints on their faces. By far one of the coolest warpaint I've seen

Ahh! A skull surrounded by blue! I love it!

Also dig the bands around his arms! Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you!

All my DS boyz have some amount of warpaint, it's fun just slapping blue on haphazardly.

Dont have them on me to send pictures rn, but skull-like patterns are really cool, and you can make a lot of varieties of them. Stripes or checkers are also good options.

Zaharievwastaken

Amazing! I'll see what I can do with skulls, couple of others have posted some inspiration so i'll try to emulate that!

Absolutely need some checkers, going to do that on some of the armour panels on the boyz! Not everyone mind you but sprinkle them in there!

They look great so far mate! Love the jaw paint as a mockery of the jaw plates nobz and warbosses get! Definitely going to try that out, thanks for the inspiration!

Love the full face of blue!!

Thanks for the inspiration! What colours did you use there? They look like they really pop!

Marcus_the_Strange

1mo

Thanks! The colors on the face are macragge blue + lothern blue over it. What makes it pop is probably the skin recipe which is simple plaguebarer flesh contrast + biel tan green shade over it. Also the camera makes the colours little bit more vibrant.

Holy shit these dudes look so good. I’m just gonna say all those brush mistakes I’ve made are ‘war paint’. Lol.

Absolutely! In the immortal words of Bob Ross 'We don't make mistakes, just happy little warpaints!!'

Working on this guy now. Girlfriend said the sword I gave him gave off braveheart vibes, so now I’m working out how I’m gonna do a tartan pattern or something similar on him.

Hadn't even considered two different colours for the boyz! Thanks for the inspiration and that is a proper Killy lookin' warboss! Is that a bladed arm instead of a Power Klaw? Very Shattered Hand clan from WoW! I adore it!!

Yea it’s supposed to be like a “power hook”, my lads are supposed to be Ork pirates! I appreciate it! And you’re welcome!
