Ok, I am considering getting some mini's painted and am curious if anyone has had theirs painted by someone else (i.e. paid freelance) or if they themselves do quality painting (shading, blending, etc) and would consider a consignment. Probably in the area of a 15-20 miniatures maybe?
I've poked around just a LITTLE online, but the costs for decent work are pretty high. I used to know someone that painted for the original price of the miniature, great deal for the quality of work he did, but I lost track of him many years ago.
I've contacted a local friend about this also, but seeing as he's married with three kids I don't know if he'll have the time.
