___It's easy. Just contact me about the kit your interested in. I try to keep my quotes reasonable. Painting kits is one of the few ways I have to relax, and I enjoy each challenge. First, look around my galleries, and see if you like my work. I'll be honest, I haven't built a car kit for years, or ever a Gundam. People, monsters, and other "critters" is what I do. But hell, I'm always looking to try new things, but I might refer you to someone who paints spaceships, if that is what you need.

___I take every care from prepping the kit, to painting, and finally shipping the kit back to you. I treat each kit as if I'm entering it in a contest. And painting something for someone else, I tend to be even more particular. Your not buying an action figure! I want you to be able to enjoy the piece as long as possible. I own some action figures myself, I believe they are in a box somewhere. ;)

___I build each kit as sturdy as I can. I put as much detail in the paint as possible, and strive for accuracy. If it is a character I'm not familiar with, I do research until I'm confidant I can do it justice. My DVD collection benefits from this greatly! I use only quality paints and other products to assemble and paint your kit. With proper care, the piece will remain as colorfully and look as good as the day I finished it.

___If there are any changes you want done to the kit, modifications, extra details, or even a custom base or scene, that can be worked out as well. There's nothing like owning a one-of-a-kind piece.

___I keep you updated through this site of the progress of your kit. I like to be able to offer, sometimes daily, updated pictures of the process. This way you can see how things are coming along, and if you like make suggestions on anything you might like changed. I might put up pictures of a female with blond hair and ask you how you like it. You might say, "Well, now that I see it, I think I would like it better if she had red hair." I'm easy to work with. I will do my best to paint something to your specifications if you want something a certain way. I also take advantage of this to add to my "Articles" page, or even use you kit to write an article for a magazine. As long as you don't mind, of course! I work as quickly as I can, sometimes finishing a kit in a few days. Each kit is unique with its own challenges, and I will not rush a job just to "get it done".

___I have worked for many individual clients, as well as kit producers. I have written for Model Maniacs Magazine, and currently write for CreatureScape Magazine.

Have a look around, and see if you like my style. Thanks for reading through this!
