My Current Rates

For all paintjobs, pricing for paints becomes a key thing. I will email you a quote on the planned paints for the project, and the pricing will be included. This will vary, depending on unit sizes, amount of figures, etc.

ASSEMBLY (These are for commissions including painting. Assembly-only commission pricings may vary)
  • Infantry Models (25mm base): $1 per
  • Elites (40 mm base) $2 (depends on complexity)
  • Infantry/Vehicle Walkers (Crisis Suits, Dreadnoughts, etc.) $10
  • Small Vehicles/ Plastic Monsterous Creatures (Land Speeders, Necron Barges, Carnifex, etc.) $15
  • Large Vehicles and Pewter Monstrous Creatures(Chimeras, Land Raiders, Hive Tyrant, Avatar) $20
  • Magnetizing Models: Varies upon project, but usually runs the cost of the Magnets+Labor
PAINTING (General Estimates, Please email for personalized quote):
Please note: These prices are general estimates for a project. Pricing may vary from project to project, so the best way to get a concise quote is to drop me an email!

  • Plastic Terrain (Bastions, CoD, Aegis) Email for quote, it honestly depends on the size of the piece! 
  • Resin Super-Heavy Vehicles (Titans, Flyers, and other Resin beasts) Email for quote, but I'd love to do a titan or two!
Wyrd Miniatures (Malifaux, Puppet Wars, etc.)
  • Puppet Wars Figures: $10 
  • 30mm Models: $25
  • 40mm Models: $35
  • 50mm Models: $45

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.

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 foam trays, if possible. Its the safest and most secure way of shipping models. If you have foam for your models, please send it with the figures. Shipping will generally be added up after the commission is finished, but before the project is paid for. Shipping for armies hover between $10 and $30, generally, so please keep this in mind.
