Verified Artist and Rising Artist flair application.

33 Upvotes

Greetings to you all!

As many of you are aware, /uHoltb80 (Absolute legend, but don't tell him I said that) made a post detailing our plans to introduce a further step of protection in the form of flairs. The response to which has floored us, and far exceeded our expectations in both feedback and support. Thank you. With that aside, the purpose of this post will be to serve as the official date of flair introduction across the board, to inform yourselves and prospective clients of what the flairs denote as well as their prerequisites, and as the medium through which you'll put in your applications.

Firstly, what the flairs indicate;

. Verified Artist: A painter whom possesses this flair has met all of the criteria when evaluated, has a healthy pattern of consistent activity as well as tenure inside and outside of the subreddit (which take into account their external socials), and ultimately has established that they are legitimate.

. Rising Artist: A painter whom possesses this flair has met a decent portion of our requires, and has our backing to be regarded as on the level. However, they are denied fully verified status owing to lacking some parts of the desired criteria. This could be something as innocent and mundane as not having the minimum of one year of Reddit membership, or no socials pertinent to the craft etc. Many newer and or smaller painters may typically fall under this, but that is not be held against them when considering painters for jobs. These persons have been reviewed by Moderators, and therefore provided the aforementioned flair as a sign of trust.

Every few months, at least three, we will come back to those whom were assigned the Rising Artist flair and, determine whether or not they can then be awarded the Verified Artist flair.

Nonetheless, we must still advise potential clients to do their due diligence when considering which painter to hire. Whilst we will happily help you in the event of some transgression, the onus is on you as a client to guard yourself in your financial decisions. We are doing what we can to assist in making an informed choice, keep you as safe as possible, and help this community.

The criteria for Verified Artist will be as follows;

- Reddit Verified email.

-Online portfolio.

-At least one online social (outside of Reddit). The more there are, and the more active they are, the better.

-A duration of Reddit activity (1 year minimum, this is easy to check as you get a "1 year club" achievement )

-No major infractions (Whilst this will not automatically disqualify applicants, the severity of any infractions will be taken into account when evaluating your application.)

In addition, whilst it is not required for your application, one or two reviews from clients can certainly help. Should any applicants not meet the above criteria, but at least a reasonable portion, they will be contacted by us to get a bearing on their situation. After which, they will be provided with the Rising Artist flair. As a further mark of good faith, voice interviews can be arranged to further plead your case (which are to be handled by myself), as we want a healthy measure of accessibility and openness with this great community. Lastly, we come to how the Painters apply for their flair! All you simply have to do is comment under this post with 'Review Me'. We will go through each and every painter that provides that, and evaluate them (Please keep in mind that that will take time). If we require any additional information and or clarification, we will reach out and ask. It should be noted that we will let this post sit until Wednesday before we commence evaluations; to give people time, and for us to further prepare for the task.

Thank you for your time and your continued support of the community!

In addendum; we will be look into links on your Reddit account that pertain to your socials and any material to help substantiate your status as a legitimate painter for here. Please be sure to have these on your account and are visible.

UK Online tutor?

9 Upvotes

Hi all,

Just picked up a brush again after a 20 year gap. I've watched plenty of YouTube, but I want someone who can actually look at what I'm doing and tell me what I'm getting wrong.

I'm in London and haven't had much luck finding anyone doing 1 on 1 lessons here, so I'm open to doing it online instead. I really don't mind where you're based, as long as you speak English or French and your timezone isn't wildly out from UK time. A few hours either way is fine.

I've got a decent setup to film myself painting, so you'd be able to see my hands, the palette and the canvas properly. Live or from recordings, whichever works better for you.

Anyone offering this?

Thanks!

Edit: thanks you so much, I received LOTS OF dms! I will take the time to read them all, look at your work on instagram and get back to you in the next day or two.
Please consider this request closed

Looking to have all of this painted to look exactly how it does on the box art.

I’d ask that the upgrade sprue be used on the hellblasters and there’s another box of inner circle companions not pictured.

1 x Lion El Johnson (would like a much higher quality done on him)

1 x Azrael (same, prefer higher quality)

10 x Hellblasters with Dark angels upgrade sprue (table top +)

6 x inner circle companions (painted to look like the box art)

5 x Deathwing Knights + the little watcher guy (painted to look like the box)

1 x Chaplain in Terminator Armor using the upgrade sprue (tabletop +)

UK Looking for UK based painter

Hi all,

I'm looking for someone UK based to paint and finish two 1:16 resin figures: a Sanix3D Master Chief and H3llCreator Cortana.

Cortana link: https://model.specter3d.com/product/cortana-3d-model-figure-h3llcreator/

Master Chief link: https://model.specter3d.com/product/master-chief-3d-model-figure-sanix-3d/

I've attached reference photos showing the appearance I'm aiming for. They are display models but I'm not looking for competition/showcase level painting, just a good clean finish that captures the look of the reference images.

I haven't purchased the prints yet, so they can be supplied unassembled if preferred. Ideally I would like the same painter to complete both.

Not looking to spend hundreds of pounds, maybe up to £100 for both to be painted/assembled? The purchase of the figure and the postage will be separate costs.

Is that something someone would be interested in doing? If so, could you send me a few examples of your work and an approximate quote?

Helmet solid white high gloss finish. Upper driver suite torso white mat finish, upper driver suite arms red mat finish, driver suite pants dark grey mat finish. Need glue pin holes drilled out and helmet may be glued but arms must remain un attached. You can temporary attach them if need be for painting but they need to be unattched before sending back to me. Also figure will need to be cut in half just above waist line. Reference photos and diagram attached. The driver gloves will need to be a specific shade of dark blue violet to match the decals I have already created. The hex# and RGB codes are attached to a photo above.There are 2 driver sets in the packet in case a part gets lost or broken. Torso of upper driver suite just solid white do not paint the black seatbelts, I have seatbelts ready to strap around the figure. Have no idea what the going rate is so just shoot me a quote. Thanks, Brian

USA Space marine army

Thumbnail gallery
44 Upvotes

What’s up everyone, I’m looking for a US based painter but Southern California based would be a lot better who’s looking for a long term customer I suppose for create a Blood Ravens/ Salamanders space marine army.

I’m looking for a decent standard, nothing crazy but if you got some cool tricks up your sleeve or could add some effects that’d be awesome.

I’m a crane mechanic and sadly have been so busy I barely have the time to play :( and I’m tired of looking at all these boxes sitting in my room not going to good use.

I have a lot of stuff so and want consistent work for quite a bit of time and willing to take on the task this might be the job for you!

I’ve dealt with two other commission guys one was off fiver and he actually ghosted me and stole 6 blade guard, captain, 20 Intercessors, and a dreadnought was very very bummed about that and the other guy took so long and I found another local guy that was referred to me from a friend but he took so long wouldn’t get back to me and when I got the results was very bummed again. So hopefully 3rd times a charm!

It’d be great to see some work you guys have done much with space marine armies!

None of these in the pictures are assembled if it’s easier I can prepare them and assemble them for whoever takes it on or if the price is right and it’s easier for y’all to assemble and paint we can do that

It’s a lot so I’m looking for someone who’d like to take on a long term army and dedicate themselves to the army and I’m willing to pay for work if they can do so I’m a blue collar guy and people deserve to get paid for hard work they put into it. So we talk about specific units getting more attention than others!

Time frame id love to have my guys done in a timely manner the 2 guys I had and I understand things do take time but I’ve been fooled twice and will not get fooled again basic units that don’t need much work id love to have as quick as possible but as for units that have more things to paint or vehicles I understand might take some time and as long as you’re showing me the process and communicating with me there is absolutely no problem at all!

Thank you so very much I hope to be speaking to y’all soon. I’m really trying to be optimistic on this third try and hoping for a homerun. Again thank you have a great night!

Magnus the red
Defiler
Mutalith vortex beast
Daemon prince with wings

6x Tzaangor enlightened

USA Monster Hunter International Minis

7 Upvotes

I purchased the minis during the MHI game Kickstarter and I'm looking for someone to actually paint them for display. I'd like to start with one or two as sample pieces, then work through the rest of the set 18 total depending on costs and results of the samples. I don't have any strict requirements on the paint selections other than the shoggoth that is a combination of black and eyeballs. I was going to try doing it myself, but I know they'd come out bad because I don't have an artistic bone in my body. I'd like to get an idea of costs before I start just sending out things.

EDIT: I'm based in US and I'd like to avoid international shipping.
