Looking for a painting service as I've retired from painting due to age. Any recommendations?

Fernando is very good, though I have only sent him 15mm over the years. It might be worth emailing them to ask if they have pictures of past 6mm projects—I would easily trust them with infantry, but I would be more curious about their experience painting vehicles. On the other hand, Fernando's people can easily duplicate color samples, so if you had clear camo patterns by photo or even physical samples then they might to quite a good job.

I've been considering Fernando for painting my huge collection of plastic Steve Jackson Ogre miniatures, since at 60+ years old my vision and hand stability is not what it used to be.

I'm in Australia.

Paint anything.

Expecting some Warlord epic any day,10mm. Typically 28mm, but painted down to 2mm figures.

Done up to 45cm, at other end of things.

Even random stuff like electronics and action figures.

H Man: Well looking to have a batch of tanks painted up and maybe some arab israeli soldiers, all 6mm. At 6 mm there doesn't have to be nearly the detail of larger scales. There is no basing required for infantry or tanks. What type of paint do u use? Give me a ballpark on price and what to expect. ? Do u have web site?

I use acrylic, typically citadel, some model colour/Vallejo.

I could do enamel, if required, depending on what paints I may have and number of figures if I have to buy more.
