I´d never expected that it would bother me so much but you are constantly painting over the lines, even on your tier 3 model.
I´d be mad as a customer because the rest looks well done but obviously I found a new pet pieve for me.

Check the prices for the work, though. $30 for a tier 3 flyer or transport, with free assembly. http://jisturrock.wixsite.com/stormhammerpainting/model-pricing

I have to agree. A bit to sloppy for a commission painter. While the rates are cheap I would expect it to be a bit neater IMHO.

I think its a 'you get what you pay for' situation, but you would probably turn a higher profit by charging more and slowing down.

Some stuff, like the glue frosting on the feet of the marines, has no place in a commission regardless of the customer's fee. Its just too easy to avoid. I think the paintwork itself is good for a beginner and it looks like you're still getting used to the airbrush. The yellow's look like they were put down super thin and like they pooled in areas, and without any kind of layers beneath they end up looking really sloppy. Having not masked the areas around the yellow accent's on the tanks and then overspraying, it just takes your entire presentation down.

I dont want to come off as entirely negative, I think you could easily turn this into a good lower priced commission without cutting into your time/profit margins with a few simple extra steps.

Thank you for thr feed back, it always helps to hear some critisism

I think everything looks fine at a tabletop distance, and can't really argue with the price - but as the other guys have said, a few bits of additional care taken will really help.

Oh, and you have an M too many in your logo...

.

No offence, but I would want my money back aswell.

- The 3 Flyers have different color tones.
- No detail work (edgehighlights etc.)
- The paintjob is not clean.

I think something you'll find is that when you present your work (especially on these forums) as a commission, you're going to receive a lot stricter criticism. It gets viewed through
a different looking glass than just someone painting for fun.

Keep at it and keep trying, it takes a bit of bravery to start putting your artistic talents on the line for income. Someone is literally paying you for how creative and talented they
have decided you are. I think its easy to forget that commission painters are still painters like every one else, they come in different stages of development and expertise.

True, and as long as the client likes the work then i am satisfied and so far from the photos i have sent him he has been very satisfied
