Miniature painting pricing
Below you can find pricing for my services, I tried to make it as easy for you as I could, but if you have any doubts just contact me and I’ll clarify everything!
- Prices may vary depending on the complexity of the project.
What are those sizes
Prices are divided in sizes, for context here are example miniatures:
S
shootas, stabbas, gretchin, watcher in the dark, nurgling
M
humans in 28mm scale, adepta sororitas, imperial guard
L
space marines, orks
XL
small vehicles, elite units, outriders, myphitic blight hauler, bikers, Azrael, Typhus
XXL
big vehicles, monsters, bigger elite units, impulsor, rhino, Lion El’Jonson, Mortarion
1. Assembling models
Assembly price varies between models, for example an assembly of 1 space marine intercessor is 3 USD.
A paintjob can only be as good as the miniature is assembled and cleaned, so you shouldn’t underestimate this step of the process.
My models are always thoroughly cleaned from sprue lines, gaps are filled and smoothed.
I can also do small, simple conversions if you’re interested.
2. Preparing a base
Time for a base. Without it even a beautifully painted figure can be lacking. Well made miniature’s base will highlight your miniature and that’s the only thing it should do – highlight, not overwhelm it.
A basic base like a texture paste and a rock or a grass tuft is included in price of painting
If you want a more elaborate base below you can find pricing. Prices may vary according to complexity of design. It will depend on material usage, whether I will have to 3D print something etc.
I can also do small, simple conversions if you’re interested.
Base up to 28mm – 5zł
Base up to 40mm – 10zł
Base up to 50mm – 15zł
Base up to 100mm – 25zł
For bigger and way more complex bases reach out to me.
3. Painting your miniature
Here comes the most important thing – painting your miniature. I offer 3 levels of painting – standard, standard plus and display.
Obviously I can adjust to your individual needs. Those are just to set your expectations.
Below is what each level contains. Each contains everything from the previous one.
Standard
- Your mini has all the elements painted
- wash, 1 level of highlight and all the necessary edges highlighted
- simple Outside Source Lighting (OSL)
- applying transfers
- your choice of varnish (I use satin by default)
- simple painting schemes
- best for basic infantry
Standard plus
- two levels of highlights for better contrast
- more advanced OSL
- simple freehands
- weathering
- any painting scheme
- recommended for elite units
Display
- Non Metallic Metal (needs my verification, I won’t be able to make nmm on every surface)
- freehands (same as NMM)
- colors and light adjusted for the miniature’s needs
- perfect for figures you want to be especially proud of
- price in this category may vary the most due to complexities of such a project
