Miniature painting and printing commissions — post your army, get bids.
Tabletop and display painters, resin printers and sculptors worldwide. Payment is protected until the minis reach you and you confirm delivery.
Post your minis — free Posting your army is free. You only pay once you accept a painter's or printer's bid.
Miniature commission estimator
Get a ballpark for the army first. Painters' real bids follow once they've seen your models and references.
How it works
Say how many models you have, the paint level or print material, and your deadline. Painters and printers bid with a price and a timeline; pick one, pay, and follow WIP photos until the army ships.
Why not a random Discord DM?
Your payment is protected until you confirm the minis arrived. On a big army, ask for a test model first so you can check the painting before the full batch.
Who's painting and printing
Tabletop and display painters, resin printers and sculptors. Any verified maker with the right brush skills or printer can bid.

Pile of shame?
Post the army. Let painters bid.
List your models free. Verified painters and printers quote on count and paint level, and your payment is protected until the minis are delivered and you confirm.
Commission your army. Get it table-ready.
You don't need a printer or a free weekend — a maker who specialises in miniatures prints, paints and ships it.

Why post your army here instead of on Discord
Paid when the minis arrive
You pay when you accept a bid. Your payment is protected until your models arrive and you confirm delivery.
Painters and printers compete
Tabletop and display painters, resin printers and sculptors can all bid. Compare price, timeline, reviews and photos of past armies.
No buyer fee
The painter's quote is what you pay. The platform doesn't add a buyer fee on top.
Reviews from completed commissions
Reviews come only from completed orders, so a painter's rating reflects armies that were actually delivered.
Need a sculpt or a file fixed?
Some makers sculpt from your references, fix broken STLs or 3D-scan a model. Add it to the post and the ones who offer it will quote.
Test model first, then the batch
Ask for a single test model before the full army, or post each batch as its own job, paid when you confirm its delivery.

Common questions
How much does it cost to paint an army?
It depends on model count, size, paint level (tabletop, tabletop+ or display), basing and shipping, so we don't publish a rate card. Post your army free and compare bids. See the price guide for what moves the price.
Do I have to ship my minis to the painter?
If you own them, yes. Ship them padded and insured, and photograph them first. If you have not bought them yet, a printer can make new ones and ship them finished, so nothing travels twice.
Can a painter match my existing scheme?
Yes. Send paint names or recipes and photos of a finished model. Better still, ship one painted sample. Ask for a single test model first, so you can approve the look before the batch.
