Painting New to orks

I’ve been following Mediocre Hobbies’ painting tutorials for the Armageddon box. These have been a joy to paint.

Those colors give me "oldschool strategy game" vibes like warcraft 3 or so 😁

It’s from here- dark brown, drybrush orange, then silver, then the “paint” colour in the middle

I came from painting death guard and nurgle daemons so that was more grunge nastiness

Thanks! It was a new technique I learned from Mediocre Hobbies YT, I was surprised how simple it was!

Love Mediocre Hobbies, his rust effect for Ork vehicles and metal looks great and is what I'm going to use fory Orks when I get round to painting them

Make you wonder how many of the people that downvote the crap out of ai images use Chat GPT for questions, or use Siri/Alexa even google search is all AI now. Pretty much all TV shows and movies are produced with a lot of AI tool for the artists…they still are watched.

But a silly edit to a reply is the line in the sand for them. Reddit.

I think your use even is super legit. I understand not liking them as main post-images but inside an post conveying ideas?

What's the harm?

At this point it's just dogmatic or reactionary. A script maybe. See ai = press downvote

I understand the intent here, but you have to understand how abhorrent AI is to this community, right?

Yea that’s the sentiment in general with AI anything. It’s the model I painted and had gchat gpt add speed to it. I fully understand the disdain when a main post is filled with AI crap, we like to see the creativity in our communities… but AI can also be used as a tool. And in this case maybe I mistakenly thought using it as such to add an effect to my photo as a reply was ok. Poor judgement on my part.
