So the whole model now has a fairly even coat of Averland Sun. I left some areas around the rivets and in the cracks darker to start to build up color and convey a sense of age / dirt / grime. When painting Orks I think about who would be maintaining these vehicles. Certainly not the Orks themselves... they have slaves for that! So.. I try to imagine some lowly grot being forced to clean armor, polish boot, load weapons... etc against his will. Sourly wiping away grime and doing a half ass job ... but doing just enough to avoid being kicked in the teeth... or eaten.
Next layer will be a 50/50 mix of GW's Averland Sun and Vallejo's Model Color Flat Yellow (70.953).
In other news.... while waiting for large expanses of Morkanaut to dry I painted up an Ork Pain Boy!
I love this model. I love everything about it. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out too. The only dissenting opinion I've heard about this model is that there is only one pose... which I suppose I can concede but . . . I have one of the older metal pain boy models painted up too.
I'm digging this model so much I may buy another one and chop it up to create a Paint Boy on a bike.
