Recently a client of ours asked if we could construct a WH40K Wedding Cake Topper for a friend of his, whom is getting married toward the end of this month.

The original idea was to build a cake topper with an overall GW Space Marine/Tyranid theme – just look at those rare endangered ripper-doves!

After several attempts to convert a Tyranid bride, we settled on a Confrontation Fianna who not only looks more feminine, but was a better suited mate for the Space Marine Terminator.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Brand X Painting is a year old!

Haven't heard from us in a while? Wondering why there hasn't been any new updates?

Check out our Gallery section for recently completed projects including a large Chronopia commission, painted by four of our talented artists. And don't forget to check out these WHFB High Elves which fared well in a recent Warhammer Fantasy tournament.

At BXP we like to keep it simple. We're not here to ramble on with uninteresting details, or regale you with anecdotes from our individual lives. We're busy painting!

But we're never too busy to hear from you - the collectors, gamers and hobbyists who've supported us this past year, allowing us to do what we love. Feel free to contact us anytime at orders@brandxpainting.com for commission inquiries, conversion ideas, painting tips, etc.

Seth P. of Idaho said it best: "Your love of the hobby and commitment to quality is really apparent in everything you do. Not just my army, but all the other work I see on your website as well. From customer service to secure packing, you guys really are top-notch. I will recommend BXP to everyone looking for an honest, dependable, and affordable miniatures painting service. Thanks again guys!"

We look forward to hearing from you, and bringing your miniatures to life!

Have you seen the MASSIVE Vostroyan Army we just completed? And did you know that the command squad won 1st place in both Peoples and Judges voting in the recent Iron Man painting competition at Sanctuary Games in Provo, UT?

Here's what the client had to say after viewing the pictures online:

I saw the pictures yesterday. I am SO STOKED. These look great, really... Really great.
I would like to think some of it is my scheme. But I cannot tell you how happy I am with the results.
You guys did a great job matching the scheme, and a really excellent job overall with the painting.
I have no doubts in my mind that the minis are going to be just as impressive as the photos are.
I think this has been one of the best experiences I have using a mini painter and as of this date I have used 5 different painting companies.
Brand X has exceeded my expectations, and I will be using you again in the future. I have a Tau army that needs painting and a massive eldar army to do as well. So I will be calling on you guys again in the very near future.

Thanks

And this is what he had to say after receiving the project in the mail:

Packages arrived today. All I want to say is this.
I am 2 models in and as I stated. THEY LOOK AMAZING. You guys do great work, at a great rate in an excellent time frame. At this point I do not think I will ever use another painting service again other than BRAND X!!!! I really cannot tell you how pleased I am. I know my scheme was pretty good, and the models are special, but you guys went above and beyond what I expected to get back. I have had some good work done elsewhere, but this work is EXCELLENT!
Thank you so much, I will be sending that Tau along probably sometime in the fall. I need some time to get it all put together. Yes I know you guys do assembly, but I don’t think I will have that kind of coin at that point. I have a rough idea based on conversations with Jay and a preliminary quote how much it will be.
So thanks again, and really a truly great job.
Oh and another thing. I can't tell you how helpful the squad markings are on the bottom. That’s a special touch that really makes life easier for me. Its much appreciated and is another reason I will send you guys all my painting business moving forward provided your quality and service stays the same.

Thanks

Here at Brand X, we all value our freedoms, and we all value the efforts of those who protect our freedoms, at home and abroad. In an effort to thank those brave soldiers, we have a standing policy of providing free shipping for any projects going to APO addresses. The men and women of our armed services deserve our respect and admiration, and this is our small way of showing our appreciation.

We recently finished the first part of a massive Skaven army and here's some initial comments from the client:

I found the package waiting for me yesterday when I got home, so no
worries. They were packed well and made it without any breakage. Hopefully
batch 2 goes as well.
The painting was just beautiful on these guys, much better than the
pictures even. I am so glad I decided to go with the NMM treatment, it
really makes them stand out. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I
can't wait to see more!

- Chris H.

This project was a bit of a challenge - Chris wanted a unique NMM look - so we ended up trying out a 'cold metal' appearance, to reflect the odd properties of warpstone. You can check out the pictures here.

Brand X Painting

We recently painted some figures for Mark over at Fictional Reality. We were happy to do the project and it was quite fun to do too. Here is what he had to say about Brand X Painting.

I recently sent off a batch of figures off to Brand X Painting and here is a short report of the outcome. I sent 5 Infinity Combined Army Morat soldiers along with one that had already been painted to use for reference. I asked that they color match the 5 unpainted ones and it was done perfectly. The new ones will mix in with my existing Morat soldiers with no problem at all. One figure had one or two tiny unpainted spots on a bit of terrain that was used on the base but I was able to easily and quickly dab on a spot of black paint and nobody will be any the wiser. Top notch job of color matching! I also sent along four Combined Army drones and asked that two of them be painted with the same color carapace and the remaining two should each have a different color carapace. A different artist than the one that did the Morats did the Drones and I was a bit worried that the paint styles might not match up very well but I was very pleased with how they turned out. They will fit right in to my somewhat eclectic looking Combined Army force. No complaints whatsoever with the Drones. They turned out great. The last figure I sent was a fantasy fighter that I pretty much just picked up out of my pile of unpainted models and sent along with the sci-fi stuff. I didn't know what to expect from just one guy going there and coming back (because there wouldn't be any unit cohesion or theme to him) but he ws excelptionally well done. My experience with Brand X Painting was a very good one and I plan to be a return customer.
