The camo scheme for the pants immediately made me think of the camo from MW2's Spetsnaz. Very well timed upload, this, since I've still got a few kommandos left to do from the Octarius box myself.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio That's a great idea! I've been painting up my IG vehicles with a WW1 inspired camouflage, so outdated camo patterns like the old dazzle camo they would use for warships during the World Wars could make for good Ork camo references too, plus it looks very distinct with the hard lines and things that turned out to be exactly what you don't want camo to include.
As soon as GW deigns to release the new Orks seperately I am totally using this tutorial! So helpful, I've been painting Orks for close to 10 years now and this is by far the best looking scheme I've come across, brilliant work!
Well, if ever it becomes integral to painting them, I'll spend the extra time on a drill. For now, it doesn't really much change how the paint goes on! 😜
Always love your videos! There always so useful for myself as I'm not the most confident painter, was especially excited to see you cover these minis and you didn't disappoint!
Dat shoota ain't gunna shoot wiv out no bullet 'ole, mate; no matta 'ow 'ard yew believe it will. Aside from that (you can get a neat effect by painting on a black circle); the paint job is great.
just found this channel. I decided to start 3d printing stuff and painting it to help sanity all the other channels dont really show much, this guy does. Nioce
This reminded me of the Ork video you did about 4 years ago, which was the first video of yours I watched, if I remember correctly. You've gotten a lot better since then.
In honesty, I'd still paint bulk Ork troops in much the same way. The methods only really change as results need to look nicer or a bit more flashy than some of the rank and file!
Really enjoy all of your videos! (My wife does too. She says you have a very pleasant voice and tone.) I especially enjoyed this orc video and what you achieved with this figure. All of a sudden, I've found myself in an orc phase, and your work has given me a great deal of inspiration. Thanks as always!
Well, since orks believe that purple is the sneakiest (citation needed), it would be fun to paint it with purple skin or at least purple gear, or a purple wash to leave just that hint..
Ahhh the end result looks so gorgeous! :D I hope I will have some time to paint this weekend... I need to get back into it. But maybe I shouldn't have told you. Now my body might conjure up a fever again.
Hi. Really enjoyed this one. Funnily enough my friend has just acquired some 90s gorkamorkas orcs, so he is stripping and re-painting them. I've shared this tutorial with him. So again you have made someone's day with your fantastic tutorials and helped us out. I like the fact that you not only show brilliantly simple techniques, but also background information regarding the characters you're painting. Look forward to the next one. Thank you. Kind regards Ian.
Now those are some classics! I remember Gorkamorka fondly, including the rule about transport capacity on trukks being however many miniatures you could cram on to them without them falling off when you moved it... 😂 They don't write games like that any more!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio Hello, we were discussing the fact about how many of them you can cram onto a vehicle, as the original bases were oval in shape to accommodate the Jenga type stacking. Good to hear from you, I always look forward to seeing your tutorials and like your presenting style too. Here's to the next one. Stay safe and see you next time. Kind regards Ian.
I like your rationale behind the colours you chose! I never actually thought about making Kommandos slightly paler because they technically fought less; I used to do them in a similar way to my main Boyz, but I started from a brown base instead of the usual darker green; it helped with the feel of covering themselves in dirt for camo. And I actually ran Blood Axes as a whole - I loved coming up with camo patterns in ridiculous and garish colour schemes (including fluorescents sometimes)... while the Kommandos actually used sensible colours... 😜
Never knew that Orks had a way to indicate combat experience just by looking at their skin. That's actually something...I think is genius. I think I'll apply this to my Orks for Fantasy/AoS/KoW who I've decided to give a dark skin tone instead of the traditional green. Can easily make the Arrow units be lighter skin than their more dark skinned brethren who would always be in the front lines taking blows over and over again.
You've always got time to pop a couple on the painting desk! ;D I've got some 15mm types I want to see if this'll look halfway decent on, though I probably won't be brave enough to try the camo at that scale!
I'm finally getting to paint my Ork Kommandos (I plan to do it during Orctober) and I was looking for inspiration. Once again I found it on your channel, my good sir :)!
@@LeVeLs404 I messed up most of the priming. It was patchy, in some places cracked and had a weird texture. So I stripped 9 out of 10 (the only one that was good got actually painted!) and now I'm waiting for the weather to be good enough for another attempt (and this time I'll follow tips like warming up the can for a bit - as room temperature didn't seem to be enough). The only good thing out of the primer fiasco is that I stripped the paint from some miniatures for the first time - not all of it came off, but they are now smooth and look good enough to go through another round of Zandri Dust spray
My son is waiting with bated breath for GW to release a box set of these bad boys. Loves Orks but doesn't want to drop a ton of cash just to get them. Great paint scheme. the little cap is awesome. Really adds a spec-op feel.
Marvelous job on your Ork commando. Two friendly suggestions......1. Drill out the gun barrel. 2. Backpack needs work. Different color straps. A heavier dark wash. And darken the hole where the rip is located. Keep up the good work. Bill
Fantastic work, really like this style for the Kommandos. It's nice to see a different style of green for the skin, I'm going to try this on my Kommandos, like I tried your style on my Arkanaut Squats a couple years back - which came out really well.
This is the first video of yours I've watched, very easy to follow and makes me want to add orc boyz to my collection, I dont play just paint the figures thanks for pushing me to add them .
Bloddy gorgeous video. The format, teaching and everythhing is just on point. Also for anyone that knows more about Warhammer than me, which in itself is easy, what paint brand would you recommend? Is Citadel really the best or does Gamesworkshop just promote it? I have recently gotten started with this hobby and keen to gain some knowledge on the matter. Literally any tips would be a godsend. Thanks guys!
Some people bitch about Citadel but it isn't all that terrible army painter ain't bad Valjho isn't terrible (I personally just don't care for them there color looks idk to solid I guess idk how to describe it but you'll know when you see it.) it's all preference really so play around with some different ones see which ones you really like hell I'm still working out what paints I use regularly. Oh and BTW white paint is a scam they all suck for the most part so just save some money and headaches and get yourself some white ink it does wonders.
@@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf Thanks so much for that lovely reply. I am going to heed your advice and go ahead and buy white ink. This really helped me, good of you to take your time to help someone in need❤️
I'm always worried about using bright layer colors when I paint, but based on this it seems like I could get that right saturation with a little tweaking of the thickness of the wash. Is that sort of right? I'm pretty limited on paints as-is--just working with primary colors, a few browns, and a few grayscales--so unfortunately Ork Sauce isn't on the menu, but do you have any suggestions for getting something like the initially-bright red pants to blend better with an otherwise more earthy color scheme?
Love your painting videos, listening to you I want to start painting something immediately. A question regarding your video gear. Did you change something there? I seemed to note that some parts of the skin or the trouser looked a lot darker than others and I never noticed that noticeable of a difference before 😳
I was fiddling with the position of the lights a few times during recording, trying to get a better view on-camera. Ultimately I think the first positions might have been the best! It's honestly a little difficult to see on camera what's going to be visible on screen when it's done.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio oh, I do nit mind it, I even quite enjoyed it. Eas just curious if you did something slightly different or if I was just imagining it 😳

CoD is probably a pretty good source of material for these guys. A lot of that 'adjacent to reality' look would work really well, I think.

Always love your videos! There always so useful for myself as I'm not the most confident painter, was especially excited to see you cover these minis and you didn't disappoint!
Basecoats and shades, that's all you need to get started. It's all just pushing paint around!

Aside from that (you can get a neat effect by painting on a black circle); the paint job is great.
Love it. Colors look great. Nice little rust effect with the Skrag Brown :)
It's super simple to do and adds a lot to grimy old metal without taking a lot of work. I wish I could remember where I'd first seen it!

Thank you, Sonic!
Thanks for this. My Ork Snipa now has camo trousers :)
If you get bored try a cadian armor camo scheme it looks amazing... oh and gauze makes for a great Gili suit/rifle camo.
I love these easy fit kits wish they did them for combat patrol instead of the garbage push fit we got.

That camo looks really good, I will nick that idea for my Evlil Sunz Kommandos.
Looks dope, nice job!
Hey boi, ya missin da purple, no gitz is sneaky wivout da purple
Camo Orks iz best Orks, Waaagh!!!
Great results, love the red camo- ready to invade the Mechanicus on Mars
Looks great!
Kutami als Sponsor, ich raste aus! :D
No purple, not sneeky enough
Where? I cant see them. :D
9:28 is when it happens.
Lovely work but why isn't the chap purple?
Which is of course the sneakiest colour!
Under ordinary circumstances I might have painted him purple, but you need to be able to see him on camera! ;D

How did agrax come out so clean? Mine look like nurgle has been drooling over them.
Which Matt varnish do you use
Vallejo Matt Spray. Does the job!
I just started into the hobby and I'm curious if someone could tell me how he did the base. That earthy texture looks really cool!
How did you do the base?
What a beautiful paint job ruined by undrilled gun tt
