A number of sources in the fluff say that ork blood is a blackish sort of colour, but on the models it seems to have been represented as red, just so it's recognisable as blood.
Do not worry about it guys , here ... THE ANSWER: I 'm looking at this very moment a copy of the legendary " Waaargh ! Orks The " historical primary source worthy of the name for the Orks Warhammer 40,000 . Here is the response that brings real bible ( It is certainly instructive , but surprisingly enough for the uninitiated ... ) "Blood Ork part of their digestive system. He travels the body often the skin is too thick to pass color . Most Orks have two hearts , one of them also assuming the role of a digestive organ . food is digested and liquefied by a series of independent stomachs (This is why the Orks can eat as many apparently non- edible things. ) . nutrients pass into the blood through the heart , stomach. consistency the color of blood and therefore varies continuously along the last thing the Ork ate and the date of his last meal , ranging from black to purple through the dark red. " And now , Games Workshop has spoken! If you have other questions about this holy book, you can ask me ¤¤¤ Ne vous en faites pas les gars, voici... LA REPONSE : j'ai sous les yeux en ce moment même un exemplaire du légendaire "Waaargh ! The Orks", première source d'historique digne de ce nom pour les Orks de Warhammer 40,000. Voici la réponse que cette véritable bible apporte (Elle est certes instructive, mais assez surprenante pour les non-initiés...) : "Le sang Ork fait partie de leur système digestif. Il parcourt le corps sou la peau, qui est trop épaisse pour en laisser passer la couleur. La plupart des Orks ont deux cœurs, l'un d'entre assumant également le rôle d'un organe digestif. La nourriture est digérée et liquéfiée par une série d'estomacs indépendants (C'est pourquoi les Orks peuvent manger autant de choses apparemment non-comestibles.). Les nutriments passent dans le sang via le cœur-estomac. La consistance et la couleur du sang varie donc constamment, suivant la dernière chose que l'Ork a mangé et la date de son dernier repas, allant du noir au pourpre en passant par le rouge sombre." Voilà ! Games Workshop a parlé ! Si vous avez d'autres questions par rapport à ce saint ouvrage, vous pouvez me les poser.

Fascinating, the creatures appear to be debating the color of their own blood. Perhaps I could be of assistance in this regard.
Humans have chlorophyll as well, and we are not plants. Because of a few genetic similarities to fungus, Orks are not fungus, their just Fun Guys!!!!
Why'z we wonderin' so much 'bout da color of blood anyway? We sound like dem red wearin' chaos boyz dat shout about blood for deir blood git.
