If taking photos is so easy,why don't we see more threads on the of LAF members work? Come on,we can't all be insecure about our painting standards...
I am. I'm strictly tabletop standard (if I actually want to get projects done; I can paint quite well if I spend 8 hours per model) so I cannot compete with the talent shown on this board.
Am I the only one who gets frustrated that online sellers of figures don't have pictures of their product on there sites.It is in my opinion, the very least they should do.
Amateur business, to be sure.
Not sure if it's just me but I'm always disappointed if store images aren't of models painted to a high standard. The inked bare metal doesn't do it for me.Yes I appreciate that this may be out of the question for many small businesses.
AB or Eureka are not good examples, I am afraid! After all, both are very well established brands with a loyal customer basis that know exactly what they are buying, even without pictures involved (I know I am one of those customers!.. as an aside, how is it going the transfer of AB/Eureka? Have you found a new distributor yet? I need to put an order soon, but don't know if I should do it now or wait until the transfer is completed... decisions, decisions!)
My concern with painted figures is you do not see what the figure looks like, you have no idea how much filling and filing has taken place.Inked bare metal is a bit more honest (of course they are probably master mouldings, not production ones).
I've been tempted to order from them for years... but, never came around their truly awful website; http://www.rhmodels.com/index.html
