Combat Patrol: Adeptus Custodes (14 models)
€550
What the unpainted models cost new: €130
Guardians of the Emperor, the Custodes have left the walls of the Palace to carry the war to xenos and heretics alike. 14 models make up this Combat Patrol: two squads of five (Custodian Guard and Custodian Wardens), a squad of three Allarus Custodians, and a Shield-Captain to lead them. The force is finished in a bright gold that catches the light like true auramite, lifted by a deep, intense red; a cold blue runs along the blades and pulls the eye straight to their edge. The basing is kept deliberately simple and reproduces in minutes, enough to grow the Guard at your own pace without ever breaking the look. A solid, table-ready core, built to anchor a far larger force.

About
My name is Antoine. I have been playing wargames for 25 years and continuously refining my painting for the past 15. Over the years, I have built multiple armies and earned awards in both national and international competitions.
These days that experience goes into commission work. A cohesive force ready for the table, a display piece meant to be looked at closely: I paint each miniature to the standard the project calls for. I take the painting off your hands so you can get on with the playing and the collecting.

FAQ
Every project is different. A large army in a simple scheme brings the cost per model down, while a detailed or Display-level piece takes many more hours with a brush in hand.
Turnaround depends on the scale of the project and on the commissions already booked in. If you have a deadline (an event or a tournament), tell me in your first message and I will confirm what is achievable.
Yes. I can replicate official schemes or custom designs. Send your reference images along with your enquiry.
No, there is no minimum. I would rather take Battle Ready and Tabletop+ work in batches of ten or more, though: painting a set in one go keeps the finish consistent from model to model and the price per miniature sensible. For Display there is no minimum number of models.
I keep leftover sprues and bits for future conversions. If you would rather have them back, say so when you order and they go in the box with your miniatures.
Tell me as soon as you can: a delay or a payment plan can almost always be arranged. I work alone and my storage space is limited, so I cannot hold a finished commission indefinitely. If I hear nothing for about a month after the work is done, I may put the miniatures up for sale to pay my bills. It is a last resort.
