Very nice work so far, on both the skin and the helmet. Gte closer pics on the next update!

The Beastman doesn\'t look like it needs stripped (from what I see in the pic). I used to sometimes strip stuff but when I ran out of primer one month I decided to try re-painting instead, and I\'m glad I did, it\'s better than stripping (provided the under paint is nice and smooth. Can\'t properly tell from the pic but it looks ok from what I can see).

For battle damage I think Julienne (?) advised me that when painting battle damage, i was painting a space wolf terminator at the time, to use the foam out of blister packs and dab the metal colour on, then highlight with a very thin white and very thin dark metallic line.

see your busts I wouldnt mind getting my hands on them!

Seriously, I was up my loft on saturday getting the christmas tree stuff down and found the Forgeworld 2001 catalogue up there, and well not much decorating got done!!

Why FW don\'t still make bits like this is beyond me (although I imagine its probably something to so with sales figures and business economics i guess...)

A great start on the Ork, love the skin tones and texture.
