Why Choose
Caladors Commissions?
Our Story
Once, there was a boy with a dream.
Not a simple army. No, something more. A shrine to the stories of the 41st Millennium.
Eighteen Primarchs, each more beautifully painted than the last… and their father to stand above them.
But dreams like that do not come freely.
The boy became a man. A man who worked, who sacrificed, who earned the means to build such a thing… and in doing so, lost the time to build it himself. So, he entrusted his dream to another.
But they were a deceiver.
Promises were made beneath the storm of COVID. Time passed. And when the truth was uncovered, what remained was not a shrine… but fragments. The man was filled with rage. He wanted to destroy it himself, but he couldn’t. The dream was still there.
So, the next time, he was careful. He watched. He listened. And in time, he found a commissioner.
A commissioner called Caladors.
This one was different. This one cared. He watched from afar, and then he tested the man. But Caladors just wanted to paint models, bring the dream back to life, and hear the praises of his clients.. So, he gave him his dream and said, can you bring this back to life?
This is the story of why you choose Caladors Commissions
Who Are We?
I am Henry, and I run Caladors Commissions. I have decades of miniature painting experience, and alongside me is Sunny. Sunny has an academic background in art and worked professionally in graphic design.
Together, we are What Are You Painting Now?, or WAYPN, a miniature painting channel built around learning the “secrets” behind art, from colour theory and psychology to preventing burnout, getting into flow, and the culture of miniature painting.
Sunny has vastly improved our photo game, and we now work together on more of the creative side of Caladors Commissions. She is great at murals and freehand painting, while I still edge her out on the more technical, process-heavy side of miniature painting, like chipping, true metallic metal, and did I mention chipping? She is not replacing me, yet…
So, if you see me saying “we” instead of “I,” that is Sunny and me. I haven’t lost the plot, yet. And just like in our videos, we like to have fun now and then.
Communication
I am committed to bringing your vision to life. I send regular video/photo updates during the project so you can stay informed, see the work as it develops, and you can have peace of mind.
These updates will also give you the chance to provide feedback before the model is finished, helping make sure I am always working toward your vision.
That said, every client is different. Some people want regular updates and collaboration. Some people just want the project handled. I will communicate based on what
works best for you.
Professionalism
As your painter and commission manager, I am here to provide professional, efficient service.
This is not a hobby or a part-time job for me. Painting miniatures and creating custom pieces is my full-time profession, giving you peace of mind that your project is in the hands of a dedicated and experienced painter.
I am committed to clear expectations, realistic timelines, and delivering your commission to a standard you are happy with.
Your Vision
Let’s bring your vision to life.
I will paint anything, no matter the brand. Whether you imagine a distant galaxy, the green of a Blood Bowl pitch, the dark future of war, a custom D&D character, a unique chapter, official artwork brought into miniature form, or something entirely original, I am here to help make it real.
I am here to make your vision a reality.
Client Confidentiality
If there is a project you do not want posted on social media, mentioned publicly, or connected to your profile, I will respect your wishes.
As a matter of policy, I do not publicly name my clients without permission. Part of the reason you may not have heard of me until now is that I respect privacy and focus on building real relationships with clients.
Some clients have been generous enough to provide recommendations, but I only use first names unless they specifically ask otherwise.
Returning & New Customers
From one-off projects to repeat commissions, hear directly from the clients who trusted us with their miniatures and why they keep coming back.
