Smells Like Wargaming: ++Commissions++

About Me
This hobby has been a growing process for the last 6 years for me, starting with Mordor Orcs, moving into Tomb Kings, then into the Imperial Guard. I've also done a lot of Reaper models, as well as a little scratchbuilding and some sculpting as well. My first commission-style piece was the Ork Squiggoth built using a Lizardmen Stegadon, as well as some other pieces. I've been doing commissions pieces for just under a year, and love to work on new, different projects different from the rest of my army. My current army is Imperial Guard, but am working on Orks and Chaos Space Marines, so I can paint any model for any range!

These prices all include standard basing, and more conversion work runs a little bit more.
I can also do effects like direct source lighting, non-metallic metal, etc., but will run a little bit more costwise, so if interested, email me your project ideas and I'll be able to provide a cost.
Please Note: I do not varnish finished figures. If you want your figures varnished, though, just ask and I'll see what I can do.
SHIPPING

Being a fairly new and growing commission painting business, I'm still trying to get the shipping down 100%. I use USPS standard shipping for commissions unless specified. Most models will be wrapped in Bubblewrap and accompanied by Packing Peanuts. Its the safest and most secure way of shipping models. If you have foam for your models, please send it with the figures.
Also offered now is:

Shipping Options

Bubblewrap and Packing Peanuts: FREE
Standard Infantry Tray: $10 per tray (Safest Way to Guarantee your model's safety)
Larger Foam Tray: Please email me for quotes. I usually use Battlefoam for custom trays.
