The flesh on the coach was just splashed on, later I'll decide the colour of the clothing and go over the overspill.
The troll, (a firm favourite of The Gonk Machine), was "wet dry brushed" with a dark blue/grey leaving the lazy black creases underneath, (like the belly button).
On the ogre there's going to be some metal. Metallic paint always always looks better on a black base and as I've sprayed him pink I've had to go over those bits in black. The brown is also the dark "Beasty" brown from Vallejo which I'll lighten up later. It's a good base colour to leathery stuff like belts though.
The Orc ref. Well he's just be splodged with green at the moment. It will take several layers to get the skin right over the black undercoat but it will look much better than if I'd used a white undercoat for example.
TGM TOP TIP:
It may seem obvious but after undercoating start with the "deepest" base colours. By this I mean the areas that a furthest back into the sculpt. These will naturally be the darkest colours. You will start to build up layers which are lighter and lighter. For instance, on the troll I've done a fairly dark blue/grey which will be succesfully covered/ layered until maybe the belly will be nearly white. (Trust me - you'll see!)
