I started out painting some of them with ordinary yellow, then I decided to use the Speed Paint version, that looks a bit darker.

On those aleady painted red, I painted yellow patterns.

Then I painted some more red, leaving some parts yellow.

My girlfriend suggested that I should paint the helmet jaws in metal. So I did a test.

On some I left even the shoulder pads yellow, as I wanted some of them to look a bit different.

The I took a pic with the boar riders as well.

On those with yellow shoulder pads, I painted some details in black.

I think it’s starting to come together. I’ll paint some more jaws in metal while I’m painting the weapons and other metal parts.

In order to get the red colour “right”, I had to paint more yellow. A few at the time!

Then a bunch of orks and boar riders got primer.

Then as usual I painted grey and white zenithal primer.

Lastly I gave them a wash with Nuln oil and then some white dry brushing.

I started painting one of the grunts with yellow on the armor and green on the skin. The boar was painted with browns and black on the fur.

On the boss I used Speed Paint yellow, just to see the difference.

I think that it turned out pretty cool!

In order to tie the troops together, I decided to add both black and red to my boar riding grunts. I’ve also been painting details like straps and handles in different brown colours.

Still got more to paint, and also need to paint more of the soldiers to figure out how to tie their schemes together.
