A selection of potential Ork skin tones that I want to try. I will update with images as I try them personally. These were mostly pulled straight from 'eavy-archive.com', but If I change or tweak anything, I will amend these recipes.

Ghazghkull Skin

1. Basecoat with a 1:1 mix of 2:1 Elysian Green and Waaagh! Flesh
2. Thin down some Waaagh! Flesh and add some general shading to the recesses.
3. Shade deep recesses with small amounts of thin 2:1 Caliban Green and Rhinox Hide .
4. With Elysian Green , begin adding pretty chunky highlights to the skin .
5. With Skarsnik Green and Averland Sunset , mixed 4:1, apply smaller, finer highlights.
6. Selectively highlight points that would get hit by light with small amounts of Krieg Khaki .
7. Mix your Krieg Khaki 1:1 with Corax White and add specular highlights to particularly pointed areas.

Optionally, finish off with a glaze of Kislev Flesh over the bottom lip, knuckes, elbows, ear tips and any areas that you want to add a bit more life. If they need a final specular highlight, I would recommend Screaming Skull .

Beast Snaggas

1. Basecoat with a 1:1 mix of Skarsnik Green and Averland Sunset .
2. Add a little Warp Lightning to the base mix and add some general shading to the recesses.

4. With an equal parts mix of Skarsnik Green , Averland Sunset and Zandri Dust , begin highlighting the skin.
5. Mix in some Screaming Skull to the above mix and selectively highlight points.
6. Finally add very small highlights of pure Screaming Skull to prominent points,
7. Glaze Kislev Flesh over knuckles, ears, elbows and lips. The re-add specular highlights of Screaming Skull , if needed.

Kruleboyz 4

3. Deep recess shade using thin Dark Reaper and Loren Forest , mixed 1:1.
4. Mix a little Wraithbone and Grey Seer , then take the same mount of Nurgling Green green, so it is 50% of the mix. Use this mix to add highlights to the flesh.
5. Now increase the amount of Wraithbone and :Citadel/GreySeer in the mix, so all paints have roughly the same amount. Then selectively highlight the skin again.

All of these Kruleboyz recipes can be finished off by blending Ushabti Bone into ears, knuckles, knees, elbows etc. Then adding thin glazes of Khorne Red and/or Carroburg Crimson / The Fang mixed 2:1.

For the lips, glaze with Vulkan Green and add Deepkin Flesh to highlight.
