Commission Prices & Information


General Information

Please make sure you look at our gallery page before enquiring; this is my style of painting although it is developing rapidly (See the images of the Praetorian Infantry or the Spartan Fantasy General for more recent images). If you have done this and you want to enquire about a commission job, then you have come to the right place. 

I aim to offer an affordable way to paint whole armies without lifting the brush yourself (Being the owner of 2 guard armies I realise how expensive it can get). Therefore I have geared my prices towards large bulky orders, yet please feel free to contact me with specifics about what you require, as the prices below are just a guideline and I may add/remove value from the price as I see fit.

What you get

With all commissions I aim to offer you basic things, including:
-          Regular updates at a time convenient for the both of us
-          Your own photo bucket album where all of your images will be stored
-          A friendly and pleasant service
-          Free Standard Basing*
-          Discounted Scenic Basing*
-          Free minor conversion (Such as creating banners, hand swaps etc)*
-          Free Assembly and cleaning*
-          Constant communication via email and Windows Live Messenger if appropriate
-          Peace of mind that your miniatures are in safe hands

* Based on the task at hand – please email me with specifics to see whether or not I will charge a smaller amount of money for these services, depending on what you want.

Painting Standards and Guideline Prices 

I currently offer 3 standards of painting with different prices for each. Please consult the table below for details. The prices displayed here are only a guideline; please email me with your exact requirements for a more accurate quote. I also offer stripping services of old models, but again, please contact me for more information. I have improved the table below to include more variables.

Painting

Basic Level – This includes one or two highlights on few of the base areas of the model. Details such as the eyes etc will not be painted. A good table-top standard.






Standard Level – This level includes a minimum of 3 highlights on most areas of the model and a precision applied wash to add further shade.




Character Level – The VAST MAJORITY of areas on a model such as this will be highlighted with at least 5 highlights, and at least 2 washes. Face and eyes will usually be picked out depending on the model.




Outline to commission process:
1.      Contact me with the work you require, the level of painting you would like them to, the style of painting, condition of the models etc
2.      I will reply to you with a quote (I offer discounts on large army bundles), and we will negotiate a timetable and any pricing figures you are unhappy about.
3.      Deposit sent by the client (See Below)
4.      Miniatures sent or bought
5.      Work begins with constant photo updates by email (Anything you are unhappy with can be changed easily)
6.      Once work is complete the client pays the outstanding amount
7.      Items are shipped by Royal Mail First Class Standard back to the client

Shipping and Handling

Items will be shipped by Royal Mail First Class Recorded without insurance, unless you specify otherwise. We are happy to comply with your shipping and handling requests, but please note you may be charged for any extra cost. I take the utmost care when packing my models to ensure that they arrive in the same condition that they left my hands in.

Privacy 

We never hand out any personal information to anyone else. Ever

Do I have to buy the model or… ? 

When using our service we will happily buy the models and assemble them for you, yet this will be costed in with the final charge of the commission. It is entirely up to you!

Deposit and Payment 

Please note that I do not require a deposit on most commissions. For most commissions the miniatures themselves will suffice as a deposit. For larger orders, however, I may request a 15% deposit up front before any work will begin to allow me to buy materials for the project. The rest of the money should be paid after all work is completed and you are happy, yet before the miniatures are shipped out.

Payment is by PayPal or Personal Cheque only. Please contact me if you need to pay by another method.

A Friendly, Informal Service 

I aim to offer a friendly and informal service to all my clients, and therefore I do not mind giving personal advice if you are unsure of a colour scheme etc. Please just drop me an email and we can get the ball rolling. As such, I appreciate that payment can be an issue for some people, and therefore do not mind arranging payment and shipping return in instalments, yet, by the same hand I require that clients be patient, especially if I become ill or am having other issues. I will of course let you know immediately if anything is going to affect your commission.
