Chaos Marauder and Frydaal
Minis for War absolutely crushed it!
I’m a busy husband and dad, so my free time is limited - and most of it goes playing Warhammer: The Old World with friends. When the new Marauder models came out, I knew I wanted them, but didn’t have the time to paint them myself.
I’d used Minis for War for smaller projects before, but this was my first full army commission - and they were incredible. They helped refine my theme (magical marauders from the frozen north) with bright, eye-catching colors that still feel true to Chaos.
Unboxing the army felt like Christmas. Every model looked better than the last - super high quality, full of character, and they really pop on the tabletop.
Great communication throughout and I've already got more projects incoming!
- DEVON
The Swarmlord
I came to Minis for War with a crazy idea - one formed from a number of crazy late-night gaming sessions that had me asking if such a thing was possible.I filled out the form with my pitch - something that I would normally expect to be told what was doable and what was not. Imagine my shock when they told me that my whole vision was possible.
What followed was a timely correspondence of hammering down the details, making sure every little piece falls into place - it was always nice to come home from work with a new email about where to go from there. I was given a schedule, and they stuck with it masterfully.
Sure enough, by the time the model arrived at my doorstep, I was positively thrilled with the sheer level of artistry on display. If I thought it looked good in the preview images they sent me, it looked even better in person. This is truly the closest thing I have seen to making a dream come true. It is safe to say that I highly recommend Minis for War, and that I will be back for more.

Ultramarine Chaplains and Apothecary
I ordered some heroes to be painted and Minis for War was beyond amazing in their painting and communication. The models looks amazing, perfect for any model in your army!
- SAM
Idoneth Deepkin Manifestation: Incarnate of the Deep
I wanted an awesome looking manifestation for my Deepkin army, and that is exactly what I received! I especially LOVE the thematic bases, as they really help to tell the story of your army.
- FABIAN
Questoris Knight
I ordered a Questoris Knight with all weapons magnetized and gave the artist and team free reign on paint scheme. I have to admit, I was a little anxious, but it came out better than expected and looked amazing at the end! The color scheme was bright and vibrant and will catch the eye of anyone walking by the gaming table!
- K.
Ultramarine Primaris Ancient
I emailed them and asked what a commision would cost, they answered very fast and where very friendly. Ended up taking a space marine primaris ancient display quality. They have the best packaging i have seen. And the quality of the paint job is ridiculous might be one of the best painted minis i have seen. I cant recommend enough will definitely come back
- Rasmus
Harlequin Army
Minis For War brought to life and Army I have imagined for a long while and completely exceeded my expectations. The quality of work from the team is second to none and Bart's communication throughout was fantastic. Everything arrived on time and in perfect condition despite having to dispatch to the other side of the world. I cannot recommend Minis For War highly enough. The team is fantastic!
- Daniel
Teclis
Exceptional Commission Experience. I had a rare Forgeworld Teclis painted by Minis for War, and they absolutely nailed it. Exactly what I was hoping for: a high-end paintjob with excellent NMM, and a stunning freehand phoenix in the classic High Elf style. I waited about a month, which, considering the quality of the work, is incredibly fast. If you have a centerpiece or something special that deserves a professional touch, this is the team to go with. Highly recommended.
- Fridtjof
Empereors Children and Ironjawz
I highly recommend Minis of War. The painting quality is outstanding, and communication is always quick and thorough. I’m very satisfied.

40K Da Red Gobbo’s Tinboy
I got Minis for War recommended by a friend and can't thank him enough. The Paintjob is better than Boxart, it was done in less than the expected time and packaged perfectly!

Minis for War has been an outstanding company to work with, and I can’t recommend them enough to friends inside and outside of the war-gaming hobby. The communication is excellent, even across time zones - I’m PST, and they’ve gone out of their way to respond quickly, sometimes late at night their time just to keep things moving. That level of dedication clearly shows how much they care about clients, your vision, and the work that they will deliver.
Every time you open a package from them, you're greeted by the absolute best packing possible. I was greeted by a very plain black box with a fun sticker of their logo, and inside each mini was very carefully packed in bubble wrap.
I've had 20+ metal minis and a handful of plastic minis sent by them from overseas to my doorstep and each was perfect. Not a single scratch or break. They pack each commission with a small trading card with who did the work and their signature which is a fun touch.
What impressed me most is how committed they are to making your vision a reality. Any time I had a question or concern, it was resolved fast, without hesitation. They consistently met quotes and deadlines, and the final result always reflect the passion and professionalism.

Lion El'Jonson
The answer came really quickly. We exchange a few emails discussing the painting, pricing, what I wanted in general. Every response where quick and the even gave me photo to show what they were capable of.
They announced me a 4/5 week delay to paint and deliver the miniature. This was close enough they send me the first photo of the finished product about 6 weeks after the initial payment.
They asked me if everything was fine, at first, I was amazed with the details! It was as close to the GW presentation as it was possible to get. The only thing that “disappointed” me was the painting on the sword which was not similar as the presentation on the GW website. I had asked to see if they could rectify it. And one week later it was finished without any additional cost the painting was amazing!
As for the delivery I was not disappointed they have taken grate care in the protections I think that even if someone kicked the box it wouldn’t damage the content.
In summary this is a very good place to buy fine crafted and painted miniature, the people that answer your question really understand what you want and take real time to explain what they do and why they do it. Truly recommend would buy again !

Spearhead Ironjawz
The box was ordered directly through MinisForWar and was included in the price. Simple, friendly, and uncomplicated communication with quick responses. Extremely satisfied, already considering commissioning the next project!
- NIK
Shovel Knight Miniatures
Absolutely. I had my shovel knight board game minis sent in and they walked me through the whole process and were very easy to talk to. These are now the pinnacle of my painted minis and look forward to working with them again in the future!
- MANNY
Drukhari Army
Yes! Quality (especially at army size) is unsurpassed! They did an amazing job matching a paint scheme that I had from an established army without anything other than a couple models. Only "bad" part was they did too good a job and surpassed the quality of my original army dramatically :-).
- Michael
Hedonists of Slaanesh
I’d absolutely recommend this painting service to others as I’ve been a customer for nearly a decade at this point! The paint quality is always exceptional across nearly 16000 points of age of Sigmar miniatures. Communication is fantastic too an options are always flexible:
- RB
Age of Sigmar Skaven
I have been using Minis for War for many years. I have always been exceptionally happy with the quality of their work. What makes Minis for War stand out is their commitment to prompt communication, level of customization available and outstanding packaging/shipping of finished commissions. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for great looking miniatures.
- Richard
Kill Team Hivestorm & Typhon
Fantastic service. I’ve had my Kill Team Hivestorm & Typhon boxes commissioned. Excellent communication, all my models were built to spec including some magnetized options. Colors look great! Reasonable turn around time. I bring my commissioned terrain to local events & get tons of feedback that people love playing on high quality terrain! Excellent experience all around!
- Regan
Norn Emissary, Tyranid
I highly recommend Minis of War for any type of model. Their staff did an amazing job on my Norn Emissary and Bart was incredibly communicative and the entire process was easy. Love my model!
- Cody
Drukhari army
I’ve been in cooperation with MFW for over year now. I trust them enough to give them my beloved drukhari project and so far the team is exceeding my expectations.
- KUBA
Several Seraphon Units
I’ve ordered several times from Minis For War and I’ll definitely order again! The quality is simply stunning - always exactly what I asked for, and often even more amazing than I imagined. People regularly ask to take photos of my minis at events! The packaging is top-notch too, you could ship porcelain in it without worry. Great communication, great results. Highly recommended!
- MARC
Emperors Children 40K
I ordered a whole army. My expectations were very well met and they really exceeded my hopes in the colour scheme. My favorite part was getting the updates and seeing the army come to life. The quality is awesome and i would highly recommend them to everyone.
- JIMMY
Hero model
I’m extremely happy with the quality and speed of Minis for War’s service. The brushwork was outstanding, and the miniatures turned out even better than I expected. The estimated time was 6–8 weeks, but my models were finished in just over 4 weeks. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and reliable painting commission.
- TM
Votann army
I provided a pretty vague idea of what I wanted and you guys took that away and created a scheme that was far better than I ever imagined. Communication through out the process was superb. Pretty impressive turn around time wise also given I ordered a 2000 point army! I will be coming back to minis for war for the next stage of my army to be painted.
Brilliant work!
- DmCG
AoS Seraphon Army
Just a quick message to tell you that I got my minis today and I'm ecstatic! They're incredible! Everything with my order was perfect: from my contact with you personally to the packaging (I was really scared, so big thanks to the persons in charge of preparing the package and protecting the minis). Well, enough rambling. Thanks for all Bart! I will definitely contact you soon for a new order!
- MARK
ASoIF Baratheon Army
I just had the pleasure of finishing an order with Minis For War for an entire Baratheon army for A Song of Ice and Fire. I gave the team fairly loose instructions with room for artistic license. Bart and the team were great and delivered an amazing product for a very reasonable price. They have very talented artists, keep you well informed, and deliver on time.
I can’t wait to work with them again!
- SCOTT
Legions Imperialis Army
First, let me state, I have ordered commissions from no less than 10 studios/artists… I will ONLY be ordering from MFW now. Obviously from my opening statement, the paint job far exceeded expectations. Even with a delay of my own creation, this is the fastest professional commission I’ve had completed. Packaging was impeccable, clean, not a single broken item. This is the best commission I have ever received.
I’m already planning my next order!
- Jonathan
Star Wars Legion Army
I have now had several commissions done by this fantastic studio! MFW has done an amazing job with every single one of them. All of my Star Wars Legion models have come out looking fantastic and the quality has remained consistent through every project done by them. I'd highly recommend them to anyone thinking of having models professionally painted. I look forward to continuing to use them and seeing many more models come to life with their incredible talents!
- Alexander
Death Guard
I've been ordering from Minis for War for years, since my last painter stopped taking commissions. At first, it was just to continue my old scheme that they did with such skill, but in the years since they have done some outstanding new projects for me. I've had the good fortune to have them do one-off commissions like my Chaos Rhinos and Landraider as well as the big, ongoing Death Guard that they have been so helpful breaking up for my budget.
- Robert
Marvel Crisis Protocol
I’ve been using Minis for War’s services for almost 3 years, primarily with Kill Team and Marvel Crisis Protocol models. My absolute favorites are Mephisto, and a kill team of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the latter being featured on Minis for War’s website. Unlike other painting services I’ve tried, they listen. I’ve made specific requests before, during, and after the model's commission, all of which have been met flawlessly.
- Nicholas
40K Tyranids Leviathan
I have used many miniature painting services around the world and Minis for War is my favorite. The quality of painting of models has been phenomenal. Their communication with customers is excellent and the care they take in packaging/shipping the finished models is truly outstanding. What sets Minis for War apart is the level of customization (special basing, magnetization, weapon loadouts, etc) they are able to expertly provide. They are currently working on my fifth commission and I look forward to many more in the future.
- Richard
Multiple Projects
We have been using MFW for some 18 months. Our commissions have covered quite a wide area. Several single-based historical 15mm warbands, Warmaster armies, Fleets for Armada and some rather rare GW masterpieces. The realistic timelines, no promises which cannot be upheld. The communication, clear, quick and to the point. The flexibility, say what you want and you get it. The packing, everything arrives safe (you will see what I mean when you order). The painting - fantastic. In a word - Professional (from beginning to end).
- John
Khorne Warlord & Chaos Army
After looking for a miniature painting commission service I choose Minis for War because of their competitive pricing. After working with them on a very large (150+model) Black Legion Chaos Space Marine army, I can say that these guys/gals completely rock! They have a quick response time to any questions/concerns I may have had with the process and did
an amazing job!
- Brandon
Leagues of Votann Army
Absolutely I would! I provided a pretty vague idea of what I wanted and you guys took that away and created a scheme that was far better than I ever imagined. Communication throughout the process was superb. Pretty impressive turnaround time-wise also given I ordered a 2000-point army! I will be coming back to Minis for War for the next stage of my army to be painted.
Brilliant work!
- Mcg
Guards of Atlantis II
I ordered painting of 37 minis for Guards of Atlantis II. Bart and his team were very easy to work with despite the fact that I needed to ship the minis in two waves. The detail (on High Level) was remarkable and the quality has blown away the players at my table. Bart was a pleasure to work with and got things done on schedule. I'm so glad I used Minis For War to take my game to the next level: it's now a jewel in my collection!
- RUSH
Imperial Knights
Amazing studio! I'm slowly building a whole Imperial Knight army with a special theme (US Flag colors, Big cats as a symbol for each of the knight). 3 commissions so far, the fourth one is coming soon and I already can't wait to see the final result! The team is friendly, and communication is easy and reactive, from the first contact to the end of the project. I definitely recommend this Studio to my friends, as the crew deserves it.
- DAMIEN
AoS Kharadron Overlords
Found this group of painters and I have to say, I am blown away not only by the quality of work, but the customer service I’ve received. MFW responds promptly to any questions I have about the project, and accommodates my needs immediately. Also, they offer options and schemes to enhance the product without any prompts, showing that they have a real interest in pleasing their customers, instead of just pumping out product. I’m happy to continue bringing them work to create amazing models for me and my partner to enjoy.
- GEORGE
Garfield Space Marine Conversion
I had a look around at a few different places/teams/groups to get my commission done. However, after reading a few testimonials I decided to give Minis For War a go. I wanted to created my own chapter master for my home brew chapter plus a little Garfield theme space marine LT(as I’m a massive Garfield/cat fan). What the team did for me was not only magnificent but also more than I could ask for! I think the result speak for themselves and I already have two more commissioned orders place.
Very happy customer :)
- Natt
Typhus
Yes i would really recommend you the Typhus Mini that i ordered was literally perfect it looks really stunning and i also had great contact to you with fast and always friendly replies.
- Simon
Sauron the Necromancer
I ordered an older metal model of Sauron the Necromancer with a kind of a vision of paint scheme, which MW executed astonishingly adding great details and highlights ensuring it presents very well.
- B.
Custodian Wardens
The fast service, communication throughout and the openness to share the paints/recipe used is unlike others and really helps you stand out. The quality is also beautiful and the gallery of previous work does not do your artists justice.
- Al
Space Marines
I would recommend MFW if you plan to have a warhammer special character and/or single unit like a primarch or anything with a 40mm base or larger. The paint, detail, layering is all best you can find. Customer service will work hard to make sure you are happy.
- JG
FoW British Army
Minis for War and I go back a number of years, starting with Star Wars Legion and continuing through Flames of War. Bart and his people have always been willing to work with me on a number of projects and I’ve never been disappointed with the quality of their work. From assembly and painting to final shipment and packaging they always maintained high standards. I look forward to working with them in the future.

Hello fellow wargamers, collectors and players.
If you are looking for a decent commission painting studio do not hesitate to reach out to Minis For War. I am mainly a 40K collector and I have shared with them various projects that I built myself
The contact was very good from the first idea and checking the calculation of costs, available painting slot, through discussing the painting scheme and expected level of painting.

I would highly recommend Minis For War. Both commissions turned out fantastic. I look to forward to many more collaborations.

Yes. They are amazing at what they do. And super friendly overall with helping you get whatever service you'd like done. The quality of their painting is just amazing and I would contact them first if I'm wanting something painted!

Orion, the King in the Woods
I’m extremely happy with the quality and speed of Minis for War’s service. The brushwork was outstanding, and the miniatures turned out even better than I expected. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and reliable painting commission.

AoS Seraphon
Some time ago, I sent an old Age of Sigmar model for a refresh and commissioned some lizards to be painted. They were broken down into three different stages. So far, I've received two and am currently painting the third. I was a little worried about each batch being painted separately, but after receiving the second package, those worries quickly vanished. The whole thing looks fantastic on the table, and most importantly, they look like they were painted by the same artist. :) Fantastic!
