Painting my AoBR Ork Warboss

Hi, I finally met someone that is willing to lay and even got himself an AoBR boxset, since my minis were getting some heavy dust, I started to paint the warboss,  here Is how I did it:

I began by  black coating him  and then using dark angels green for  skin and machrite red for the clotching, then I drybrushed knarloc green and red scab  respectibly the last part was to use gobling green in the skin as you can see that was the efect:

 

After that I  was happy with the skin so I painted the pants and leather with  scorched brown followed by dry brushed bestial brown and snakebite leather, for the metal parts I  applied  tin bitz and the boltgun.

After that I did tryed to do the boots with some astronomican grey to wash badad black but the result was too clean and repainted them  adeptus battle grey I liked a lot better that decision.

Next was the turn to apply washes to everything first taraka green on the screen then devlan mud on everything else but the boots.

then just for visual remider I painted the rim in snakebite leather and dry brushed some metallics to recover and highlighted the red clothing. then a first was in order I painted astronomican grey in the banner and used a pencil to draw a grid in freehand , that allowed me to paint the famous checkers that ork use, in the end it was more easy to do than I feared since I didnt went for the correct efect but a sloppy one, what you think?

for the skull I used bestial bron as base then bleached bone then skull white after that I whased in devlan mud and highlighted with bleached bone.


For those wandering I did the straps with a clear color like dhened stone washed over with some brown washes as devlan mud or ogryn flesh
in the following pictures you can see that I did some lining with boltgun metal on the metal parts.

.So here is the final result is that the  most used tool in painting my warboss were the washes that I definitibly love.

I hope this post help you.


One more thing I received great advice from my daughter on how to "PROPERLY" paint my miniature to the point that she helped a bit, here she is doing her magic:
