Warhammer 40,000 · Orks
Goffs (Orks) Paint List for Warhammer 40,000
Brutal black and white over green skin, the most warlike clan there is. Grim, mean and quick to paint in numbers.
Goffs paint fast: green body → black clothing → rusted metal → skin last. The green skin has to be dark enough to look brutal.

Tips
Hints for this army
1
Ork green skin paints better in several coats — do not try to cover it perfectly in one.
2
Black tattoos on green skin are the Goff signature: a few Abaddon Black strokes with a brush 0 on the shoulders.
3
Orks are perfect for experimenting with rust — do not be shy about dirtying the metal with Rhinox Hide + Jokaero Orange.
