Sweden you say? The odds of me seeing them across the pitch just increased by a factor of at least a thousand. A really nicely painted team and I hope that I get to see them in person.

A real bargain at that price!
Not fan of the colours, but the painting seems sublime. Good luck to the new owner

£97 seems really low for a paintjob of that quality. I’ve seen some very average looking teams going for £80+ on e-bay.
Just goes to prove there is not a lot of money to be made painting models for a living.

Re: Well Painted Slanneshi Chaos Team up on Ebay
I'm happy enough at that as I didn't paint them to sell/display, but to game with! Undoubtedly would have made more if trying to sell as single figs, but what's the point in that?
(Did sell a couple of BB Chaos warriors I'd done in the same style (test minis for a different project) to a slightly higher standard for, IIRC, about £20-30 each ages ago). Just pointless to keep around, and whatever pennies they made was a bonus. (Not exactly a lot of money whatever they went for
) Hope they'll be bouncing around on the pitch somewhere now! 
As for painting in general. HQ/Single Figs or whatever do seem to go for decent amounts, last 40k HQ I sold years back was £150-200 I think. (And I'm not at the standard of most of the true artists out there, think it was an 8.4 on CMON) Even with the time to get back into it though I would never paint with the goal of making money, kill the enjoyment. Reckon commission/bespoke work is probably where it's mostly at with that goal in mind.
Ah well, last of my hobby stuff gone now!
