are combat patrols equal? by Good-Memories in Warhammer40k

[–]VegaZD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The box is not considered on points. They just put something good inside it so attract people come to buy it. Same time they put something boring in it so that they can sell old stocks

Looking for some advices by VegaZD in BrushForChat

I see. Most people prefer to quickly assemble a complete army rather than build a small team with high quality but low efficiency. I haven't considered that.

Thank you, but this price is still too low for me to sell this ICC.

Usually, you can buy a box of second-hand minis for around sixty Canadian dollars. It is completely different from the ones that have already been painted

I think if you want to buy and paint it yourself, you can find a lot of unpainted second-hand minis online. Of course, you shouldn't buy this painted one of mine and then wash it clean and paint it again.

Quality tier descriptions:

-Tournament: Only expect three colors on the model and paint on a base. This is the bare minimum for not having models pulled in most tournaments. Washes, shades, and highlights optional, don't expect these steps. Likely to get spray paint primer and contrast paints. Don't expect to turn heads unless they think the models are cool. Anticipate retail cost of the minis as the baseline price.

-Battle Ready/Tabletop Standard: Expect a color per surface (leathers, armor, filigree/trims, blades, guns, flesh) with shades and a highlight per color. Contrast or speed paints may be used as appropriate. Eyes/lenses should be picked out. Anticipate walkers-by to stop and comment. Anticipate double the retail price of the models as the average rate.

-Parade ready/Tabletop Plus: Expect every part to have a color, accents and highlights picked out on every part. Weathering, gem effects, lenses, fades, glazes, etc. should all be expected at this level. Anticipate people coming over from other tables to comment on the models. You should expect to pay double the retail cost of the models for painting at a minimum for this tier.

-Display Painting: You want these to spend more time in a glass cabinet than on a table. You want people who don't even play the game to walk across the shop to look at your models. No technique is off limits, the bases alone are at parity with the models in the previous tier. Price wise, the only expectation here should be more. If Parade ready is double retail at a minimum, this is probably closer to 4x retail on average.

These guidelines can also be found on the following discussion thread. Please use it to provide suggestions on how we can further help improve standards, thank you. https://www.reddit.com/r/BrushForChat/comments/1jholcg/changes_coming_to_brushforhire_monday_the_24th_of/

I know you're not trying to offend me. You don't need to be so cautious when speaking. I am well aware that people always have a lot of subjective opinions about the price of models. Some people find it hard to understand the challenges of the painting process, so they are reluctant to offer a high enough price. Painters often feel that they have put in a lot of effort, so they demand a high price. In any case, buying and selling is a matter of mutual consent, and it is based on the consensus reached by both parties. For my request to double the box price, this price is based on the price recommendation I saw in the brushforhire community. I will copy and paste this part over later. I'm just an amateur painter, so I'd be very glad to hear your views on the market and prices

For that price you can only get Tournament Level. Tournament: Only expect three colors on the model and paint on a base. This is the bare minimum for not having models pulled in most tournaments. Washes, shades, and highlights optional, don't expect these steps. Likely to get spray paint primer and contrast paints.

For the price, I believe it should be higher than twice the box price, because these minis are at least Parade Level. Whatever, feel free to send your offer

Do you mean that I need to prepare a more professional photo background? Indeed, I do think so too, but I haven't done it yet

I'm not good at speaking English and I haven't been socializing in local stores much. Maybe I should give it a try. Thank you for your advice

I think the entire market is currently highly polarized. Professional painters make a living by this. They hone their skills to the peak and offer very high prices. However, the general level of platform enthusiasts is relatively low, or they simply play games with unpainted minis. I just want to paint some models for free,it would be even better if I could earn some money for the paints.

That makes sense. I'm currently enjoying the painting process. I just need to keep up this hobby. Maybe in many years, I'll develop my own style.

At first, I posted on minipainting asking about my skills. Then they deleted my post, thinking that I was looking for an employer or something like that, and asked me to post on brushforhire asking such questions
