It’s one of those times that frustration gives birth to something actually useful. God knows how the ‘Eavy Metal team got through regiment after regiment with all that yellow.

Hee hee! Thanks! Which warbands you gonna do first?

I tried the Chosen Axes initially, and got frustrated with the difficult-to-paint bits behind the arms and weapons. I ended up pulling them apart and accidentally breaking them. Lemme know how you get on!

Thanks! If I had the time I’d like to have done them all in all-yellow perhaps. Partially though it’s also an ownership thing, if you spend an age copying the official colour scheme then you end up with something that doesn’t feel like it’s “yours”, and people don’t really take that much of a look at as they’ve seen that scheme executed a dizen times already to various skill levels.

I also always like seeing alternate skin tones on Orruks/Orks, and this is a really good one, particularly as contrast to the yellow.

I am curently working through ‘The Chosen Axes’ man babies.

Good call on reversing the scheme. I did a bright orange for my Ironskull’s Boyz, and while I love the end result, the process about killed me. I wish I had thought to reverse the scheme…

Anyway, nice work!

Take it! Push it further!
