These tutorials are soooo good emil!! I love your style of ork skin. The choice to add ork freckles is great.

Hahah, i should have skipped the head and painted some eyes on the "neck part" above the tongue haha.

OMG if more miniature painting tutorials used digital illustration to point out where the highlights are I would be a very happy man! great job :)

I have been watching your videos for about 2 weeks and I'm highly impressed! Keep up the great work! You are a fantastic mini painter!

Id like to thank you Emil. I watched a couple of vids. of yours and picked up a brush for the first time since May 17th 1998.. omg im old. I was no master back then, but with what i picked up from your vids was acctually beter now, then back then. Ive got a long way to get real good, but i dont care. This is to much fun. Again, thank you for geting me back into the hobby.

Cracking video! I love how simple you make it look, great tutorial, keep on with the good work!!

Honestly, I never thought about using a little red in some deep recesses to make the green pop better. Great stuff.

You re on my top 5 painter. Great effectivness of the paint work!

Grattis till 8k! 🎊 Grym video ☺️👌🏻

Some handy tips in this vid! Just got a Start Collecting Orks set and the tips you mentioned will help my miniatures pop!

THIS is the content I NEED! Great vid, keep em coming!

I appreciate your videos a lot recently. I can totally understand your different steps and why you choose to do it that way. When it comes to skin though, I prefer to paint in much thinner layers but thats a personal thing and does not affect your great work in any sense. Keep up the good work. :)

Broski, I used this method ( loosely) on my warboss. Nothing but praise and I always refer your videos

Bravo! So so good!

Ah! Emil! Thank you for the tip about NOT highlighting based on the most raised section of each volume, but instead considering how it's angled to the light source. Something clicked for me about a big step between tabletop-ready and really professional lighting. I often find my volumes look bulbous or comic-book styled, and have been seeking some more reality. This was a simple tip that helped me over a hurdle!

Would be interested to hear what you have to say about NMM and light placement. That's something I struggle with is where the highlights and shadows should go to really sell the effect properly

Really nice video. I always struggle with bringing out details like this. But this video has inspired me to keep trying. Also i wish i had muscles like this Orc! Looking forwards to your next videos, Thank you.

Lol I found my 2nd edtion box set in my attic today while cleaning. There was two orcs and both chain sword space marines. Going to enjoy painting those tonight back to 1993 I go lol.

Love it. Been away from painting from a while so looking for inspiration, these videos are perfect. I'd love to see more airbrushing videos as I've just bought a badger airbrush, also how to paint elephant skin like on gw's oliphaunt lord of the rings model, I did mine with overbrushing and drybrushing and its crap, looks really chalky.

Emil! I kinda miss these step-by-step tutorials you used to do. Cheers

Emil, Ive started orks with contrast and loving how fast i can complete units vs classic. Different results but happy with how good they look. Would you be able to do a video on orks but with contrast paints as youve done for the various space marine chapters please?

Im probably not going to use the same colours for highlights on my Gordrakk but the highlight method makes so much sense and that with other techniques is going to be really helpful. Ive used contrast on other Ironjawz for skin and am regretting it a bit, but Im a slow enough painter as it is and that with army painting 🤷🏻‍♂️

Very useful video. I'll definitely try this on a demon with lots of skin. Thanks :)

Orks are my favorite just because I can find random things around my house and glue it to them and it looks decent.

Can you do a NMM gold and silver/steel tutorial?

I have a question, do you pre-thin you paints when you put them in dropper bottles? Because it seems you don't thin your paints after you put them on the wet palette and paint straight from the bottle.

Looks great, tho I personally liked the colour at the Basecoat stage the best xD

Hello, sir, I wanted to thank you for this informative video. I also wanted to ask for some advice or some help on a different matter about Citadel Paint for Warhammer miniatures. a few years ago at the least 7 yrs. i got bit hard with painting war hammer figures. i went on big shopping spree and bought every color Citadel had. I do mean every color. At the time I had few months down time due to a injury so i was out of work for about 6 months and since i was home during that time and couldn't really do anything strenuous I painted a lot. So now decided I wanted to get back in to painting again so here we are. My paints have been in a big box in the house in a good safe area for a long time. I did a inventory of my paints last night. Every color pot has not been open in 7 years I have noticed some the paints dried up even with the cap being fully secure. So can you give me any advice how might salvage my paints that dried out? Or will i need to toss them and rebuild my paint inventory? Again

Hello, excellent work, where can you get this orc? Thank you

Hi, the Ork is Ironjawz Warchanter from Games Workshop. Just removed his chest plate and filled out the holes! :)

Beautiful work! I am trying to get a similar result on goblins, have been playing with trying to get a warm yellowish/green colour on goblins but still natural. Though I have been having a hard time, I tried many different Vallejo and GW combinations. Great work! Perhaps a tutorial on paining some old lizardmen figures in a natural green? Nice work!

Goblins is hard because the minis are so small, the transitions have to be made on such a small surface. Also the volumes on the old models are really not defined - kind of clunky sculpts. The new ones are cool though. If you check my instagram i painted skragrott a while back going almost to yellow in the highlights. But he's one of the newest scults and have a bigger face than most goblins. instagram.com/p/BtxungknETv/

Hey Emil! I have been following your channel from almost the beginning, and I was wondering how thin your paint is? Especially when you use the red at first it loos really bright and almost too red, but then when dried, it doesn't pop as much and it looks a lot smoother. Does this have to do with the consistency of how thin the paint is?

I have a semi transparent gunmetal blue by either Vallejo or Reaper, can't remember now for sure, that I like to use kind of like a glaze, over a P3 cold steel and radiant platinum combo. Pretty nice effect most of the time.

I would like to do more wet blending, but even when using a wet palette, my paints seem to want to dry too fast. Does my wet palette suck, or am I just an incredibly slow painter, or do I need to thin my paints even more? Seems like when I try to thin them down more to prevent this, I go too thin and the coats try to streak. Suggestions?

I don't know how you can get lighter colors look blended in like that with only brushing them on. Whenever I try to highlight a surface (and not just an edge) with a lighter color, it sticks out so much that it looks just like a spot of paint, but does not fit into the overall image.

Rewatching this before paining up a unit of Orcs and was curious why the feet were done in what looks like a different color scheme? I can see them being somewhat different, but when looking at your end shots they don’t seem to have much green in them at all. Just curious. Love your work and have gone back to video#1 to restart watching them all over again as a means of getting back after it myself.
