Happy Orktober, Folks!


 Well, it's been quite a ride since the last "Orktober" post I made last year--an Ork Mek with a Kustom Force Field.  This time, I decided to paint the new Painboy Ork model.  I've been messing around with my painting technique, and lately have been doing a more cartoon-y style--stark highlights, big contrast, and bright colors.  It's less stressful than trying to paint realistically (stress on the word trying), and I find myself enjoying the actual process of painting much more doing things this way.  While I was happy with the completed model, I couldn't help myself and finally decided to add a bit of rust on the brassy parts--and blood, lots of blood.  Because, you know, it's Halloween season..and...uhh...Oh, who am I kidding?  Who needs an excuse to add blood to a crazy-ass Ork?!
