Painting - Painting Levels Grasshopper - Aug 05, 2003 - 01:02 PM Post subject: Painting LevelsAll right lads... I need some definition help. I know that there are different levels of painting. I've seen them mentioned before on e-bay and other sites when trying to describe the level of the "professional" job done to them. So here's my deal... does anybody have a listing with explanations of the levels, and what the expectations are of said levels? I'd much appreciate an help on this... thanks.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill.

It's all kind of subjective. One person's level 2 may be another's level 3. Most sites that offer pro painting will have listed the way they define the different levels. The following is typical but not inclusive.
Level 1 is a clean paint job in basic colors. Little to no highlighting. Bases flocked.
Level 2 will usually have highlighting/shading and be have bases flocked with a couple different types of flock like sand and static grass.
Level 3 will usually have some conversions done and a high level of detail/ shading/highlighting.
Level 4 is your 'eavy Metal job. Should win a Golden Demon. Major conversions, shading like you've never seen. realistic looking gems. Bases built up and studded with things that will complete the scene. Should be a mini diorama in itself.Melifaxis - Aug 05, 2003 - 03:11 PM Post subject:
