My principal areas of historical interest are Ancient Greeks to Middle Imperial Rome, Feudal/Medieval Europe, Wars of the Roses, and Japanese Samurai (all 15mm to 28mm). I also own and will paint Napoleonics and American Civil War figures. Will also do fantasy Lord of the Rings figures; some Warhammer 40k or Warhammer Fantasy may be accepted as well.

I have sold several thousand dollars worth of figures through E-bay, and have decided to turn it into a part-time business. I have had several repeat orders from Ebay clients.

References are available upon request as well as pictures of samples of work. Check out my DBA armies featured at the Fanaticus DBA Resource Page. Samples: Gallic, Early Ptolemaics, Later Carthaginians, Early Samurai, Marian Romans, Polybian Romans, and Late Imperial Romans.

Prices are negotiable as it depends on what type of figures, level of detail requested, etc. Figures like Samurai etc., require more work and will cost more. My prices will be comparable to others and typically average as follows:

Historicals

25/28mm Foot $5 USD
25/28mm Cavalry $7.50
25/28mm Artillery, Chariots, Elephants (crew separately at foot rate) $20 USD
25/28mm Special Foot figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $6.50 USD
25/28mm Special mounted figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $8.50 USD
15mm Foot $2.75 USD
15mm Cavalry $5.00
15mm Artillery, Chariots, Elephants (crew separately at foot rate) $6 USD
15mm Special Foot figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $3.75 USD
15mm Special mounted figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $5.00 USD

Sci-Fi/Fantasy

28/30mm Foot $6.50 USD
28/30mm Mounted $10.00 USD
28/30mm Special Foot figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $7.50 USD
28/30mm Special mounted figures (General, Standard Bearer, Musician, etc.) $12.50 USD
25/28mm Special Characters $13.00 USD

The above prices include basing with Litko precision cut bases. Each figure will be on a med green painted base with watered down white glue added to the base, I then flock with a mix of static grass, small rocks, sand, dr green sponge etc., for a nice look. If you want more of a bad ground look for a bad going base let me know which ones you want done that way.

I would prefer that you clean the figure of flash etc. If you wish me to clean them, I will add a small additional fee (approx. .35 cents per foot or .50 cents per mounted) only for those figures that need to be trimmed of excess flash. Charge will vary according to the amount of flash; some manufacturers hava a lot of flash (e.g., Lancashire) and some have little or none (Gladiator, Essex, Museum).

Postage will be charged as follows: Shipping by DHL is a 1-3 day service. Most guys charge shipping and handling ranging from 5-15%, so I would go with about 10% of the order value or so. Figures will be packed with bubblewrap/foam chips or a combination depending on the nature of the order.

I prefer Paypal as a method of payment. Payments should be sent to ggouveia@shaw.ca. I will also accept a money order in USD or CDN.
