Painting

Subject: Painting Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:10 am

So.... you all know by now my painting skills and my choice of colors and what not. Anyhow, I know I'm not Golden Daemon quality, or even on par with John Gimrich, or Matt, but I am looking for a new challenge of a model, and was wondering if anybody out there would be interested in having me paint a mini up for them? Basically, I do not want to buy any more minis at the moment, but still want to have a model that I don't have to paint up.

If you are interested, let me know, all you would need would be 1) the model itself, 2) if you want a resin base or a different custom base that as well, 3) a general base color that you want, and 4) a few dollars to cover paints, primer, brushes, etc. I would say 3 would probably be enough for a single model. If any larger than a 40 mm base model, I may ask for a few bucks more, but that would depend on the model.

I basically have a lot of Space Marines, Imperial Guard, Orks and Tau, and I would still be willing to paint any of those, but would really like to do a model from one of the other armies....

Do you want to try a figure from a different company?

I'm up for about anything. I'm hitting a wall with my Orks, as I've painted so many of them that I need something different before going back to them.... What did you have in mind, John?

What do you want to play with?

I don't really need to fig back but if you wanted to try something different.
I'll put up some examples

Rackham Figs:Dirz or Japanese Goblins faction - 28mm fantasy
CAV - 15mm Space game w/ "mechs"
Infinity - Inspired by Anime 28mm fig game
Flames of War - WWII 15mm
Rogue Trader era 40K stuff -

Well, not really looking to get into another game, per se, but just something different to paint. I really like the models from Rackham, but I don't know if I could do the mini's justice (the way they paint them on their site is insane!). I might be up for trying out one of those, but not sure what I'd be able to do with them...

Are you still working downtown? I'm bring some stuff with me tomorrow and we can hook up.

yeah, still work downtown. I usually take lunch at 12, and I can meet you at around Sunshine again, if that works for you.

Once I get back into town I have a ton of Rackham stuff I bought before the bubble burst that you could paint if you felt like it Wink

I'd say you are definitely better than me too! I can't keep up!

When are you getting back into town, Matt? I wouldn't mind painting them, even though by that time I may already be done with my Orks Smile

Do you like red? I have Bloodletters of Khorne
Do you like blue or confusing mystical psychotic color blends? I have Flamers of Tzeentch.

Do you want to work on shading and painting straight lines? I've always wondered how a Zuvassin-themed Daemon would look (Half black, half white)

Subject: Re: Painting Tue Jan 20, 2009 3:46 pm

Mendin, I paint just about any color....

matter of fact, I actually tend to use a lot of colors in my stuff. Most of my minis average about 20 colors per model, so I do just about anything.

If you have a Daemon that you'd like painted up, and the Zuvassin theme is how you'd like it, I'd be willing to give it a try.
