[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 5526235, member: 10784"] To get a decent quality paint job for a $37 miniature (I'm assuming it's HUGE or bigger in size for that cost) is going to run you a minimum of another $37 for a decent paint job on it. However, a quick look on eBay shows I can buy it unpainted for around $25-27. Start there and then see if you can find an advert posted at your FLGS for miniature painting and see if you can find somebody that way. Several years back, I had a local high school kid paint up a ton of miniatures for me for like $2-$3 each (human sized, and mostly armored human warriors). Unfortunately for me, the kid found Jesus & gave up gaming and painting. If you don't have anybody local, you can just try googling "miniature painting service" and see what you can find. But, again, for that big a miniature, it is not cheap, no matter what. Maybe $50 total? I've also sent minis over to Sri Lanka to get painted and had good results that way for low prices, but it's probably not worth it for a single miniature. [/QUOTE]
