Commission Painting and Pricing

Yes, I do take commissions.

Infantry are $15 a model, regardless of size, up to 32mm round base.
Large Infantry and Cavalry are $30 a model, up to 50mm round base.
Extra Large Infantry are $45 a model, up to 60mm round base.
Vehicles are based on size:
$150 for 40k dread sized (60mm base)
$200 for 40k Rhino chassis or similar, smaller fliers (Storm Talon)
$400 for 40k Land Raider, larger fliers (Storm Raven).
Forge World and Collossals - prices vary

These prices include all assembly and basing. If you already have models assembled, primed, or want to do the basing yourself, please contact me and we can talk about reducing the price.

What you get for your money - models will be cleaned of any mold lines and flash, assembled, primed, painted, based, and matte varnished for protection. Will always be beyond the 3 color minimum for tournaments, and will include the little details that we all want. I will paint an army for you that I would be proud to play with myself. I will do custom color schemes, as well as traditional "from the book" schemes. I only have one level, and that is fully painted.

About Me

I paint models and have been doing it since I was 12. Over the years I have learned tons of tricks and painted loads of models. I have ran a very successful Miniatures studio, and owned a Retail Game Store. After closing those, I decided to get a little smaller with the operation and I am back to a one man show.

Speed Painting 101

Okay, at the urging of a few people, I am putting together a series of step by steps. These are to detail as much as I can tell about speed painting.

I give you Easy Ultramarines!

Step 1 - After a Black Primer coat, apply GW Mordian blue to the entire model.



Step 2 - Appy a liberal wash of GW Asurman Blue to the entire model, instanly shading the model.



Step 3 - Apply GW Blotgun Metal to weapons, skulls, and venting on the backpacks. After the boltgun dries, apply a quick wash of GW Badab Black.

Step 4 - the most aggressive step in the entire process. Black out the left shoulder pad with GW Chaos Black, paint a dot and a line across the top in GW Astronomican Grey. Now Edge the shoulder pad with GW Iyanden Darksun.


Step 5 - Paint over the Iyanden Darksun with GW Golden Yellow. Paint over the Dot and the line with GW Skull White. Take GW Chaos Black, paint a smaller black dot within the white dot, closer to the top of the white circle than the bottom. Paint a thick black line, straight up thru the bar crossing the circle, and you have a hand painted ultra marine symbol.


Base, matte varnish, and there you have a very quick easy good looking Ultramarine Squad.

Enjoy!

No, not a great new exciting model, but my 1.5 year old son. He ran around with a red bandana for a day, so I made him a cape out of it.

Because we all want to be superheroes......

The Crack Bites again

So I have decided to not sell my WOW account and that I will be reactivating maybe later this week. I am seeming to have batches of down time between paint contracts and I have already started to burn myself out, so I will keep the old WOW account around for S&G. Right now, it'sre-install and patch up to Pre-Liche King status, getting ready for next wednesday......Weeeeee

So, I picked up Epic Madrak Ironhide this past Friday at Talon's. Painted him Saturday evening in about 3.5 hours. Great model, a lot of detail, and a lot of fun on the table. Got to test him out in a 1k point game with Shane today.......Lots of fun and a totally brutal game. I killed lots of Cygnar, but not enough to win....:(

Chaos Kabobs Anyone???

Well after a great day of gaming at Empire, I decided to swing by Talon's to throw around some ideas for a cross store, valley wide WM/H Tournament. Whilst talking, Ian came in and set up a new contract with me for the week - 3 Chaos Marauder Horsemen regiments and a Chaos Hound regiment.

I prepped the first reg of Horsemen by pinning them to square dowels. These models will be mounted to the GF9 magnetic cav bases, but Ian did not have them with him. So instead of taking the chance of gluing them to the bases, only to not be able to get them back off again, I decided to mount them to the dowels for easy painting.

So I give you - Chaos Kabobs......
