Verified Artist and Rising Artist flair application.

34 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.

USA Space marine army

28 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

Thanks for looking!

USA Monster Hunter International Minis

5 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.

USA Looking for Garage Kit Painter with Experience

6 Upvotes

* For anyone who recognizes this kit, I am posting it again to get another feel for painters in the subreddit. If you have already reached out to me, please, please reach out to me again! I am horrible with the Reddit Messages function and couldn’t organize my notifications properly to look through everyone’s messages.

Hello,

I am looking for a painter to paint my favorite, very special garage kit. I want the paint style to be exact or as similar as possible to the item photos on booth.
We can discuss budget in messages, please attach examples or portfolio when messaging me, thank you.

I am very patient and can wait for as long as you need to complete the kit, and as I said budget can be discussed later. I am very picky with painters, so I’m looking for someone with more experience and confident they can match the painting style as seen in the product photos.
Since this garage kit is very special to me, I am looking for experienced painters who are very confident in their abilities.

Thank you

USA Looking for Anime Figure Paint Touch-Up / Color Matching

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for someone who can do minor cosmetic repairs on about 7-10 pre-painted anime figures and their bases.

Mainly:

Small chips/damage filled with putty if needed

Sanding/smoothing

Color matching and blending with the original factory paint

Touch-ups on both figures and bases

I'm not looking for full repaints, just clean localized repairs.

I'm frequently between Phoenix/Mesa, Arizona and Orange County, California, so someone in either area would be ideal.

I can provide detailed photos of all damaged areas. Budget is flexible depending on the work.

Please comment if interested, preferably with examples of similar repair/color-matching work.

Thanks!

Hello!
I live in Southern California (right between Los Angeles and San Diego), and am looking for someone to paint and assemble garage kits I've imported from Japan. Got them from the Wonder Festival. The kits are in my possession in their boxes. I am looking to hire someone to assemble and paint them. If you are in the immediate area or you know a business or professional, please let me know. I feel more at ease dropping off a kit and then picking it up upon completion. Otherwise, give me some recommended services. Thank you!

USA Looking for someone to paint Adult Eternal Sailor Chibi Moon

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Edit: Artist found!

I have a SH Figuarts Eternal Sailor Moon figure that I'd like to turn into a Sailor Chibi Moon (this is my dream figure!).

No assembly required and no time limit. My budget is about $200, but I am open to discussion if this requires more. Based in the US.

Outlined below are the main details I'd like changed:

- Hair colored pink with a gradient that turns a transparent-ish silvery white towards the ends

- Eyes colored red (for about 4 face plates)

- Costume necklace, sailor collar, bubble sleeves, skirt, back ribbons, and all detailing colored pink as shown in the second photo

- Chest brooch / compact recolored to suit the rest of the costume

There may be 2-3 small accessories to repaint/recolor as well.

Looking for someone who can do fine detailed work as this figure is only about 6 inches tall, and I'd like the paint job to look very clean and neat. Thanks!!

Hi!

I was recommended this sub as I am looking for a builder for a USS Voyager model I recently acquired. It is the special edition 1997 Revell model.

I did build one when I was young in the 90s and the Bandai version twice. I however would like someone who is experienced and skilled to construct this for me. Fill paint, decals, and lighting. I have always wanted a highly detailed model like the filming version.

Thank you to all the artists out there!
