How to Paint ORKO- Masters of the Universe: Clash for Eternia

Steps

1. 1 Paint pure Black around the eyes and underneath the cloak's collar, and use it to paint the arcane symbol on the front of the cloak.
2. 2 Fill in Orko's eyes with Averland Sunset.
3. 3 Base-coat the skin with Russ Grey.
4. 4 Base-coat the whole cloak with Khorne Red, then wet-blend Royal Purple (mixed with slow-dry medium) into the deep recesses and folds for a smooth shadow transition.
5. 5 Base-coat the hat with Jokaero Orange.
6. 6 Boost the cape's highlights by wet-blending Bloody Red into Khorne Red on the raised areas.
7. 7 Base-coat the wand with Polished Gold.
8. 8 Shade the hat with Fuegan Orange, working it into the recesses and the back.
9. 9 Pick out the eye centers with Ice Yellow, leaving a ring of Averland Sunset visible around the edge, then dot in black pupils close together for Orko's cross-eyed look.
10. 10 Highlight the hat by mixing Lemon Yellow into the Jokaero Orange base, focusing on the upper folds, the front, and the brim.
11. 11 Highlight the skin by mixing White into Russ Grey, applied to the ear tips and fingers.
12. 12 Base-coat the face mask with Pink Horror, then highlight its raised folds with white.
13. 13 Paint the rocks on the base with Cold Grey, drybrush white over them for highlight, then wash with Nuln Oil.
14. 14 Base-coat the rest of the base with Iraqi Sand, wash the whole base and the wand with Agrax Earthshade, then finish with a matte varnish.
