    In defense of Nick, Orks are significantly more complex models than Necrons to paint.

    I loved the contrast between the painting experience for both armies. I painted my entire 3k of Necrons in less time than it took me to paint one 30man squad of orks, they are so time consuming. You have to love da boyz to finish a full army.

    I've been collecting my waaaargh for nearly 30yrs and, Nick, I feel your pain. A week of painting for 150pts on the table was always a killer and made for a slow growing army but now I need a small bucket to roll my 120+ attack dice. Plus I love the look on marine players faces when their 40 models line up against my 200. I have trukks kanz flyers etc but the green tide is where the Boyz excel. Keep painting and stay safe to everyone.

    Great work! I love how you documented your journey. It's taken me three years to paint my Tyranid army, but I started this past December and I'm pushing through, trying to touch the hobby at least an hour a day. I find myself making time to do something. Paint the skin, paint the carapace, work on bases, anything that I can do in an hour pushes me closer to completion. But this....7 days straight? That's Herculean!

    The new Orange on the blue Necrons looks good. I also like the original blue. With a bump in the contrast, or maybe a slight color shift; that blue would have been an excellent base-coat. I personally like the Necrons in the colder spectrum just to give off that "Cold Machine" vibe; but that Orange looks fantastic with the new bases. They pop out very well. Excellent painting!
    Poor Nick... The man was growing a beard painting those orks. That's a lot of just basing... Hats off to that gentleman and scholar.

    Well done you two.
    As for other viewers (and Nick) who might strugle with their army because of the tons of infantry (yes I do suffer the same for my old army), I have a trick how to speed up such massive painting challenges:
    Split your armies into units and then take up a mix of units, instead of a big bunch of one unit.
    In the example of Nicks ork army I would say he takes 10 boys, 1 Bot/Can, 1 Vehicle.
    Start with them with priming and giving them their overall basecoat (blue for the boys), and then go step by step.
    If you have a mixed group, even thought you dont have to paint the same on the units, you are faster and get more satisfaction from it, since you get faster results.
    AND you dont get intimidated by the sheer number of left to paint models.
    Nick I can feel with you, because I made the same mistake in my past.
    Doing this "production line" painting is just in theory working. It burns you out fast, and that slows your progress. And since your progress slows down, so does your motivation.
    Until you hit the bottom line of "nope! I paint something different!"

    blue orks work fine. There was someone who did some AOS Orks in an aqua/blue skin theme and it was amazing.
    Also, do you all have a "project" time limit where you start to lose interest and it becomes more chore than fun. For me it is about 4 weeks. If a project sits on my desk, even if I am not painting because of other daily issues, the clock still ticks. When I sit down in week 5, even if I have not touched them, the magic is gone and I have to force myself through the process.
