Artmaster Studio 15mm Figure Review
We offered people the chance to get a figure painted by us in exchange for an honest and open review which we could post on this blog and they could post on their websites and forums.
Below is one for Queen Boudicca in 15mm
"I recently had 'Corvus Belli's' Queen Boudicca in Chariot painted for me by 'Artmaster Studio'. As most of my ancient armies are already painted, my transition to FoG has involved the purchase of a number of different command packs and figures from various manufacturers with the intention of creating some small vignettes on the 40mm x 40mm command bases. I decided to take advantage of a deal that 'Artmaster Studio' were offering of some free painting, and duly sent the command pack, in return for which was an honest review of their work.
For me the key to a figure is the face and in this case the layered flesh tones are very effective at distance, from the opponent's side, revealing all the detail of the face in these nicely sculpted figures, and stand up equally to the close scrutiny of the home supporters with magnifying glasses. The only painting direction I could give to the guys was in regard to her famous red hair, but in framing her hair with the green and blue of her clothing and cloak it has made the figure of Boudicca really stand out. All the figures, including the horses, have subtle shading and highlights, with her signature red hair unmistakeable without being too gaudy. The detail in the stripes and checks of both the Queen and her driver are also impressive. Even the woodwork of the chariot and spear was a nice surprise with the grain of the wood painted in, which shows real attention to detail. Finally, the chariot is nicely based with highlighted ballast and small rocks and various types of grass tufts.
Overall, the figures are nicely sculpted and posed and beautifully painted and based. I have since sent several more command vignettes of different armies to be painted, and this time I will be paying for them."

Jeff

Review of Pirate Figure Painted by Artmaster Studio
We offered people the chance to get a figure painted by us in exchange for an honest and open review which we could post on this blog and they could post on their websites and forums.
Below is one for a Black Scorpion Pirate.
I found Artmaster to be a quality and efficient painting service. They were honest and straight forward about timescales and easy to deal with.
The actual figure painted by Artsmaster: it is one of the best I have seen. The shading, especially on the face, shows incredible detail and skill. The request for specific colours was followed with out loosing the individual flair of Artmaster’s own style. I was very pleased with the end result.
As a company Artsmaster have shown a very professional service with good communication skills. I can only recommend them and will be using their services again with full confidence.
