40K Ork Kommandos

It has been a bit quiet here; I'm flitting between too many projects and getting distracted, and I don't like showing work-in-progress posts until I know I'm done with something.

Anyway, here are some Ork Kommandos I got distracted by. These were a lot of characterful fun to build and paint. They're festooned with backpacks, pouches, stikk bombz, and Swiss Army knives. I used SpeedPaint Forest Sprite for their skin. I tried to stick to a limited muted palette, and not get distracted by camo patterns. The metals are an orange-brown dry brushed with metal.

The Boss Nob has the option for a big choppa or a power klaw; I used a magnet to allow either choice. He's got darker skin; I recall that as orks get bigger and more aggressive they get darker.

Snipa Boy

The Burna Boy has an oven mitt and burn scars.

I'm not entirely satisfied with the white for the rokkits, but it will do for now.

I like the Dakka Boy; reminiscent of a Royal Marine with a knitted cap and pullover. You can see the Swiss army knife many of them carry.
