I wanted to de-clutter the figures and give them all bowler hats and jock straps.  I already had some milliput and tried making bowlers with it but it was quite friable (?)…crumbly.  I bought a strip of greenstuff and gave that a go.  It’s really tricky to handle.  It doesn’t crumble but either gets sticky or, if you use water on your fingers and tools it gets very slippery.  There is eventually a sweet spot after some working with it.  I tried making a small brim first to add a dome on top but this proved difficult.  In the end I resorted to sticking a dome on the head and then pushing the outer edges down and rolling it around as best I could.  The results have been alright.  More organic than I hoped but they’re Orks.  I reckon they grow a mushroom of sorts and stick ‘em upside down on their heads.

Prior to assembly I chopped their “skirts” off and just smeared a lump of gs into a box/jockstrap shape.

I’m generally pleased with the look.  I based the skin on Army Painter Green skin with a green oil wash over it followed by blocking in the muscles with Vallejo yellow green.  I think I can do better and am waiting for an Army painter Green 5 pack to arrive for the next batch.

The white “warpaint on the face seems to work.  Painting the eyelashes is hard because there’s not a lot of flat surface around the eye.  They are fundamental to the look though so I will keep trying.
