Sorry if this is in the wrong forum!

Ive been thinking for a while about starting a painting service.

Ive been modelling and painting for over ten years and believe I finish individual models and armies to a high level. I believe my models are way above table top / usual three colour minimum (!!??!!) painting as demonstrated below. Of course id welcome comments.....

My enjoyment in this hobby comes from modelling and painting and would like to start a service for painting models. I'm going to start modestly and build up a portfolio of finished models and that's where you come in.

At this point im not aware of the time constraints, costing, feedback and communication with customers that comes with offering such a service. To that end im looking for a couple guinea pigs to help me on this journey.

Im offering to paint up miniatures for any willing volunteers. I prefer building them from scratch, priming and then painting them. At this point im not hoping to charge a great deal. just enough to cover paint and postage - we can agree this once you come forward.

At this point im looking to turn round a space marine 10 man tactical squad (example size unit) in about two weeks. Im UK based so that might be preferable in terms of postage but am open to anything.

An example of my work to date is here:







If youre interested - post on here and PM me and we can sort something out.

Really looking forward to working with someone soon
