Hello From DK Table Top Games Painting Service:

Many of you have asked that I create a new forum for my service because it was difficult to seach through all of the 102 post on the previous one.
I would like to outline my pricing a little better for all of my fellow gamers. The prices are in USD

Paint Prices are as follows
Single small Mini's 3 $ (Example: ork boss or space marine hero)
Single medium Mini's 5 $ (Example: Deff kopta, pirahnas)
Single Large Mini's 8 $ (Example: crisis suits, Dreadknot)
Single Extra Large Mini's 20 $ (Example: ORK STOMPA)
Squads are 8 $ (a typical Squad is 5-8 mini's)

Armys or Battle force Please requst Price for service, I will make great deal for you.

If unsure ask I respond Quickly! IF Wanting Items From BitKingdom Order Direct Though Me I am 15 minutes away and able to get faster.
The reason for more of an outline is due to the cost of paint, and I have had many request for service. If you need your mini's back by a certain date please let me know at the beginning of the transaction so I can let you know upfront if I can complete it on time. Once you wish to use my service I will send you my address and phone number. I accept cash, money orders, checks, and paypal, a small fee for paypal payments request total. Thank you, Donald and Keily Owens

Cool, what currency is this in? But it seems like pretty good prices. Could you post some photos of minis so i can see what your painting standard is?

This is by no means finished .....Keep in mind this is a 1978 ugly miniature that has had need of a lot of TLC. i wish i had a before picture , there was no definition, or helmet, it looked like a lump of led with a flag on it. and keep in mind i only sent it in for the banner to be worked on , was just going to use it like that on the table. Donald asked if he could fix and paint it.

With all due respect, one would think that, given a second chance to start a similar thread, you would take the time to correct your spelling of AFFORDABLE.

Hint: there is no "T" in that word.

That banner is looking good, can't wait to see it finished!

They made miniatures in 1978...? That's over 30 years ago...!

Why dont you post a picture of a fully completed model from a more modern era.

Sorry , i sent old models....the latest stuff i got is from 1995. I think the affortable is a play on words ..... af- for- table. Got the pleasure of seeing the other things he was painting, the nids came out nice. Donald had my miniature looked up for dating.

Hope those are my Nids!

Rabbit_Hole, there are a lot of pics of his work in the previous thread. The latest one he posted (a deff kopta later in the thread) is especially nice

Or - one could simply click on his Gallery Image link . . .

Well, just thought I'd bump this up there in case there are any updates

I can't wait to see the finished results!

Donald has PM'ed me a few times about the painting process, so I think it's well under way

I'm not sure what to do with myself... I guess I should go paint the pieces that I didn't send so they're ready to go when his get back to me!!

Okay, somebody hold me accountable on this When I post pics of what Donald painted for me, I need to post what I did in the meantime, too. That will give me extra motivation to get it done

will pay for P&P?

I don't know if he will outside of the US, but you can always write to him, he responds fast. I have seen Tau, Marines, and Nids painted. The nids look great part of the armor is glossy like chitin and the other is not like skin, I think they are done.

Hello fellow gammers You have requested photos and I have them now I will be posting mattlov's mini's and rodfarruguia mini's again thank you all

Squads are 8 $ (a typical Squad is 5-8 mini's)

so if any one plays imperial guard do they have pay more since there squads 10 models?

It's a play on words.. notice the OP's name has the word table in it.. See... some people just don't get it... you didn't get it.

will you paint to my scheme if i send you it?

Wow, this work is much improved over earlier pictures. Those gaunts are killer. That guy with the banner is a whole new model. You can't beat these prices. Looking forward to seeing additional models as they are finished.

Wow! I Really love those gaunts . They are painted very clean and precise!! If my tau turn out anything like that, I will be forever in your debt

The banner is also extremely nice . The texture on the scout and the banner bearer's armor makes me wonder if the paint is a little too thick on them- but then I don't know if that's just from the condition of the models or some other factor, since the gaunts don't look that way at all!!

Great work, can't wait to see more

I have seen the Tau, I think they are changing the color. You had some that were painted before. and yes the minis were in bad condition. that they came out this good is nice. sometimes when you do freehand stuff looks thick. but is ok, i rather have that then your standard cutout from a printout of a codex page.

Awww, does that mean his kids won't be perfect either?

Sigh :(

Good luck, I'm not a fan of your space marines but the gaunts are top notch.

Have a good one.

Edit:The banner is cool though.
Edit2: Just a tip, if you did a bit of washes over the space marines for shadow effects it would bring them up a level and it wouldn't add much work for you to do, you do good work on the skin though.

hey , he did not do the wash and highlight because i am doing that..... highlight and wash is super easy, just wanted a good even paintjob with out sealing. and the banner done , and that came out top notch and not boring

Yeah I thought it might be the condition of the models you sent... from the era of disco... I would love to see pics of 'em after you're done

The stealth suits I sent had some light blue on their guns, I believe that's all that was painted and yes, that was the wrong color for my army (most of it is hawk turquoise with red gore).

Okay, time for me to start painting myself

Great work, can't wait to see more

I like my gaunts too. I sent him one I had painted already, and Donald matched it very well. He will be getting quite a few more from me!

Hello Everyone Sending some new photos for all to see the first ones are before I painted them and the rest are after they are done.

interesting, but i HAVE to say, as a thirteen-year-old, Improve, Ive been painting for 5-6 years and its finally coming out good.
Just Practice, experiment with shading & highlighting, and try to do the faces well, use washes and you will get a good outcome and more customers.
