A commission trade came in today, a couple of Island of Blood Sets and some Phoenix Guard, and I'm looking to get the 102 models painted up and back to they're owner in a month. It was stated just to get the needed colors on, but I'm aiming to do a bit better and would like some feedback/support as this is my first major job and the first one I've set a timeline for.

Date Received: May 31, 2011
Date Due: June 30th, 2011



I got started tonight on the Swordmasters.






Bases are sand/shell and awaiting critique from Uriel's Flame.

So far, I think they are looking really good. The group pic isn't very color oriented, but the single you sent gives a better idea of the true color.

Crappy quality. I'm going to attempt to fix my camera tonight so I'm not reliant on my phone for update pics.

All on schedule, need touch ups on them, but other than that, full steam ahead!

Good luck with your new business mate.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

Thanks! It's definitely a challenge, but my time per mini has improved drastically while quality isn't suffering and I'm learning a lot about the painting business. If anyone has any inquiries into it I'd be happy to take on another after this. I'm still stuck between a rock and a hard place at the moment financially and any help I can get and can provide in painting will be wonderful.

I seem to be behind schedule a little bit, I've got the day off though so I'll catch up. Being nocturnal makes 'days' interesting since they end at 9am instead of midnight. Anyway back to the painting table for me. I've got the last bit of Swordmasters on the block and I'm going to try to get ahead with all 18 bowmen tonight.


All 28 of them.

Working on the Bowmen now.

They are outlined, but not raised or very slightly if they are. Thank you.
