I want to thank you all for your great ideas. I'd especially like to thank Markconz for his warning about dull colors and for the incredible close-up pictures of his Orks. The last picture, with the Painboy on the Warlord's stand, convinced me that I needed to pick a color that exists somewhere else on the same figure in order to "unify" the paint scheme. I therefore chose to go with white hair on the Painboy (it matches his smock), and "clan colors" on the Runtherdz (my warband has Bad Moonz and Evil Sunz clans).
I finished painting the figures tonight at 10 PM (I spent WAY too much time for three measly Grot stands; oh, well) and I chose to take pictures of the figures still on the sprue (rather than risk insanity and loss trying to base them while I'm so tired). I use 20x20 bases, because most of my army was painted in the halcyon days of Space Marine (even before Titan Legion came out!).
To reward you all for your help, I give you the finished products (for real this time, down to the blood-splatters on the Painboy's smock): head on, front and back. I apologize both for the fuzzy pictures and my megre talents. Neither are worthy payment for your assistance, but both are the very best that I am capable of providing.
Edited to show finished products.
