WH40k: Desert Grots

Recently I spotted a tutorial on youtube, where a nice guy shows his greenskins painted in a non-orthodox way. This made me want to try some myself.



The skintone recipe was following:

• Iyanden Darksun basecoat
  
• thick wash of Gryphonne Sepia
  
• bring back midtones with Iyanden Darksun
  
• layer highligts mixing in increasing amounts VMC Buff
  
• finish with thin highlights of pure Buff.
  

I like it so far - it defenitely looks still very orky, yet it breaks down the ubiquitous bottle green scheme. Nice distraction after 50 orthodox orks. I will go for a complete mob of desert grots soon.
