Trying to make some extra money$$$ painting let me know if you think it's good enough to sell!!

to sell depending on how much, when I looked into the detail pics, your model were just clipped off the sprue, and not even cleanly either, the tips of the stubbers showing sprue residue, ideally they would be cleaned and drilled barrels with a pin vise. The painting is very evident that its a quick airbrushing job, while looking closer the painting is outside the lines meaning painting strokes overflow where is intended. Also on large/expensive models like IK, they would also be magnetized for weapon swaps/easy storage, motion available where intended. House decals matching the colors but that's optional.

Hey thanks for the feed back . Yes the spru clean up for pro level should be much better just more or less seeing if I hit at least low level of sell job.

You dont have to be pro-painter to sell models, frsit try to hit solid "table-top" level.

- spures residue - file it
- dont leave glue residue, i saw few thick spots
- when airbrushin try not to leave dots of paint all over the model (adjust pressure , adjust mix of paints etc) , go with simple color and highlight, practice on scrap parts
- dont over do with addional parts , they dont alwasy fits
- improve bases , naked bases with foam dont look good., simple base is ok - GW sand, small rock, dry brush with electrostatic grass

but first of all - paint your army - show it as sample, maybe you can find someone intrested
paint something cheap for friends , you will improve, earn little cash, they will be happy etc.

To be very blunt, these are poorly put together and lazily painted. You've not got close to a tabletop level, and would be best trying to pass them as 'tournament level', IE three colours are on the model.

In my experience, you'll be lucky selling these on for even the base cost of the model, as they most likely will only be picked up to go in a paint-stripping-vat.

I really liked the Bloodthirster you did that I commented on, but wasn’t as big a fan of the Knights, to be honest.

In my experience, the commission buyer is looking for top notch stuff, but will pay quite a bit. So there isn't really a solid market for "good enough" commission work at a cheap price, though you'd think there would be.

I would buy them at the normal 50% list price for built and poorly painted/unpainted models myself. You have some gaps in the guns like on the vallents shoulder guns and their is noticeable paint in zones where it should not be like the gold on the raised parts on the helmet bleeding onto it's lower part.

Hey thanks again , I'm just hit up for money at the moment why posted the knights. I get the gaps everyone keeps going on about they are on the other guns with the magnets, Also thinking about it I should of taken a different angle on cap"n" harpoon. Either way thanks again all in case I need this shortly for rent!

I like the Nurgle and Tzeentch ones (except the brown stuff on the Tzeentch Knight) but the Khorne one lacks definition and seems like a quick airbrush job.

I think it's the camera angle I used ,if you see the whole thing you might be able to get the looks like lava splashed on it.
