Updated Ork Painting Method

Given my recent change in base painting, I thought I'd update my 'standard Ork painting method'.  Looking at the method, which I wrote several years and a hundred or so painted Orks ago, I've made some other 'tweaks' to the method also.
  1. Drybrush Codex Grey, then Fortress Grey, then Astronomicon Grey in successive coats on the whole model, using a big brush and very little paint.
  2. Overbrush all weapons, some armour, and key parts of the Kans, Dred and MANz Boltgun Metal.
  3. Paint all skin Knarloc Green.
  4. Pick out some armour, gun parts and other minor details in Dwarf Bronze.
  5. Paint belts and straps Beastial Brown.
  6. Spray wash with 1 coats of Badab Black.
  7. Spray wash with 1 coat of Devlan Mud
  8. Pick out detail and paint chips and scratches with Chainmail.
  9. Highlight skin with Goblin green
  10. Top highlight skin with 1:1 mix of Goblin Green and Bleached Bone
  11. Paint base Calthan Brown
  12. Drybrush base Tausept Ochre
  13. Second Drybrush of base 1:1 mix of Tausept Ochre and Skull White
  14. Paint teeth snakebite leather
  15. Paint eyes bleached bone
  16. Highlight teeth bleached bone
  17. Paint eyes blood red (fully covering the bleached bone)
  18. Extreme highlight teeth white
  19. Paint any minor details unique to any models
