The Commission Process

Here’s how the whole miniature painting commission process usually works. It’s not rocket science, don’t worry.

• Contact: Fill out the form below with your project details.
• Quote: I’ll get back to you with pricing, estimated timeline, and any follow-up questions.
• Approval & Deposit: Once the details have been ironed out, I’ll secure your spot with a deposit.
• Painting: I paint your models. I’ll also send you work-in-progress shots and updates as the project goes.
• Final Approval: I send you pictures of your completed models, then they will be packed safely for shipping or pickup.
• Delivery: You receive your minis. Life is great, you love them, and tell all your friends about it.

Timelines & Deadlines

Typical turnaround times are 2 weeks after I start on the project. I usually have a few projects in the queue, so I may not always be available to start your project as soon as you book.

A lot of my customers are tournament players, and I am very used to deadlines and can usually work around them easily, as long as it’s agreed upon beforehand.

I rarely book more than 3 months in advance. If I have a lot of projects going on, I will put you on a waitlist and contact you once the backlog clears a little.

Pricing

Each project is unique to some extent, but here are some general guidelines about pricing:

• Assembly and magnetization are quite time-consuming. This costs more than people usually expect.
• Some models and schemes are cheaper to paint with the models partly assembled to specific requirements.
• Projects with loose guidelines and schemes (i.e. that I choose how to paint them) cost less than very strict schemes.
• I don’t have dedicated tiers of painting. The only tier I paint at is called “this shit looks dope”. If you like quick and simple schemes to save money, I can do that. If you want a box art style look, I can also do that.
• I very rarely agree to take on jobs for color matching the work of another painter. When I do, it is pricey.

As unique as they are, I get asked for Imperial and Chaos Knights a lot. Check out this page if you want to get your knights painted.

To give you a price point, Infantry models start at $10, Heroes start at $50, Small Imperial Knights at $80, and Big Imperial Knights at $175.

Large jobs usually come with a discount because I can save time with batching.

Exact pricing will be provided after reviewing your project details and what you want. It’s worth giving details on the quality and/or style you want to get a more accurate quote.

Request a Quote

Use the form below to tell me about your project. In the text box, please include the model names, quantities, any specific color palette/shceme you are looking for, and any deadlines if you have them.

The more details you include, the more accurate your quote will be.

If your project is very open-ended, this is even better, and usually cheaper. “Imma let you do you’re thing, just don’t paint my Ultramarines pink” is a very valid request.
