Premium
For when you want a miniature or set of miniatures that will get everyone's attention at the table, even under close inspection!
- Best quality paint job
- Advanced techniques
- Perfect for special characters
Premium painting levels are recommended for centerpiece models in your army as it will make those models designed to stand out look their best on the table.
And yes, you can mix standard and premium painted models thorughout your army in a commission!
More details:
All pricing gives us a budget of time to work from, premium gives us more time to work on a model and get an overall much cleaner and better result compared to standard - it also allows for extra effects like OSL (object source lighting) and weapon effects like lightning/power blades etc
Standard
For when you want your miniature or set of miniatures to look great on the tabletop for a great price!
- Best price
- Faster turn around
- Perfect for groups/sets of models/board games
Standard painting level is recommended for the bulk of the models that make up the army that are not centerpiece/large models (think general infantry or militia) as these units are generally not the focus of an army and still look great when they're painted to this level when they're fielded in groups on the tabletop.
More details:
All pricing gives us a budget of time to work from, standard also has some restrictions, primarily that the model is painted entirely but details that are not sculpted on the model are not included (eg, tattoo's, unsculpted banner emblems or other details that cannot be seen on the unpainted model)
Standard level painting is generally done with fast techniques, using drybrushing/speedpaint/contrast paints to get the bulk of the model done.
In rare instances where models have a lot of detail but still come in boxes of 10+ models (eg, Rubric Marines) they need to be quoted separately from the normal pricing scheme if you require them to be painted in the box art style.
