So, this is a pretty awesome opportunity and I wanted you guys to weigh in on this.
I was approached this weekend at the tournament with an offer from a friend of a friend who owns a painting company, Stiffneck Studios.
The owner said that he wants me to paint for him.
Normally, the idea of doing commission painting would really turn me off. I don’t think I would want to be held to a strict schedule and I feel like it would take a lot of joy out of the hobby.
But this would be a slightly different setup. The owner basically wants me to write him a list – the gnarliest, hardest tournament list I can, then he will buy all the minis for me. I will build the army, play the army and paint the army. At the end I will probably take it to a GT, and then the owner will sell it.
Like I said, I wouldn’t want to do this if I were being held to a schedule – I have too much going on in my life to try and fill orders for someone. But this seems like a pretty neat opportunity to build and play something I might otherwise not have the financial means to.
What are your thoughts? Is that something you would be interested in reading about? If I did this, what army should I build?
