Prior to starting commissions I'd like to gain acceptance into the community so I have references that I am trustworthy. I have marines that I would like to have someone commission for their army, any army scheme.

These are the unpainted figures I currently have,
(x2) MM/CCW Dreadought
Tactical Squad with Flamethrower and missile launcher
Tactical Squad with plasma gun and missile launcher (Vet with plas pistol and power sword)
Shooty Terminators with assault cannon
AoBR Captain

I also have an AoBR set that is half completed as Ultramarines.
Captain
MM/CCW Dreadnought
Tactical Squad with flamethrower and missile launcher
Shooty terminators

I wish to paint them, not to outright sell them as gray models. All of the models are assembled and ready!

All models will have every detail finished, based with dirt/grass, shadows and highlights, and several layers of matte varnish. Finished to tabletop quality. I will send pictures at the end of each stage to ensure that the models are as requested. PM offers.

Note: These are commissions, not freebies. Thanks.

Giving us examples of your work would be recommended.

If you're looking into becoming a Commissioned painter, I would strongly encourage you to read through these threads:

Also, as Lt. Coldfire suggested, pictures are always recommended.

I posted in one of those lol. Thanks, Jin and Lt. Coldfire. Very helpful I will get some pics up of some of my more recent stuff. I've got some older pics but they're of lesser quality than what I do now.

generally once posted, its best to wait for the client to come to you or to reply to requests, Alternately launch a website and link that to your advertisement in the painters thread, will help you out alot. My best advice is to do a nuber of WIP blogs here and there so people can see your work as it builds up.

General note:

Given that there's already been two threads linked with plenty of advice/discussion on this matter, unless you're propositioning the OP, please refrain from posting here on out.

An example is up, will be posting more as I finish them. These are apart of the ultramarines aobr that I'm working on. I'm currently working on a Tactical Squad that should be finished in the next few days.

Thanks guys.

Ah.. question, just to understand..

You have a SM army. You wish to paint it and sell it, and would like for whomever purchases it, tell you how to paint it.

That correct on how you want to go?

Or am I misunderstanding..

That is correct.

However, if you are willing to send me models to paint I will gladly paint them as well. I just don't feel right about asking for people's models to paint right off the bat, seeing as I only have one person I've completed a trade with.

Still waiting on replies. Dreadnoughts will be available again if I don't get any replies on it by Saturday evenin.

Due to a lack of communication the Dreadnoughts are once again available to be commissioned.
