Title pretty much says everything: please show me your orcs not painted green :)
For the record, I'm going to paint a box of GW Bonesplitters and I'm looking for interesting alternatives to the classic green.
I've found some with Google, but looking for more.

I have no green orcs or goblins.

Green orcs are ...
Here my examples in 28 mm för Warlords of Nowhere and 10 mm for Battles of Five Armies/Warmaster Fantasy.
-
Some Orcs from different manufacturers, which I painted with a ruddy/reddish-brown complexion. Leathery base tones, reddish tones for the highlights with some sunny skin thrown in, and sepia or fleshy washes.
My Goblins were pained a dark sunny flesh tone, lighter than the orcs, to differenciate them.

Thank you. Very nice examples.

Heh I'm sure this same thread pops up every now and again. :P

All my fantasy Orcs were painted in Humbrol enamel chocolate brown back in the day. They were started before GW changed their colour scheme and I preferred the brown, so I kept it.
For my most recent modern ones I maintained the chocolate brown colour, just in acrylic.
Goblins I paint green

A few non-green sorts here:

Thanks for all the images. Love especially the paler ones.

Here's a pale take on a modern GW orc in case that's of any use:
