Resin from seraph
Commissions are not accepted for "thai resin" kits.  Pictures of kit parts with a ruler are recommended before an accurate quote can be given.  I currently work at $7.50 USD per hour; the total depends upon the complexity and/or scale.  I can perform light to heavy modifications to kits, as well as creating custom sculpted pieces for kits, such as weapons, altered clothing, detailed bases and more.

The cost for a completed kit depends upon the complexity of the kit, as well as the quality of the casting.  Any extra parts or mods you request will add to production time, so please keep that in mind.  All kits come with a basic wooden base, painted a solid color, unless otherwise stated.  I work a normal everyday job and I am new to taking commissions, so please be patient with the time it takes to complete the kit.  Please be sure to send a link to pictures of the kit, be it from the site where you bought the kit or a database like www.myfigurecollection.net.  This is crucial in having information on the kits size and complexity, needed to give you an accurate quote.


Gunpla, Mecha and Plamo by ClayCannonII
Commission times vary per the complexity and scale of the kit, as well as for any extra modifications or particulars you have for the build.  Please be sure to include the name and maker of the kit, grade and scale, if applicable, with a picture of the kit to keep the quote as accurate as possible.




Quoted prices are not a guarantee of the final price, as we work hourly and may run into unforeseen problems building your kit.  We will do our best to keep the final cost as close as possible to the quote.  Currently, we are unable to perform lighting on a kit.

A deposit is required up front for all kits, before any work is started.  The remainder of the cost is due after production is completed and you have approved of the final product.  Resin kits require a $50 deposit, while Gunpla/Mecha/Plamo currently require $65.  Paypal is the only payment option currently accepted and shipping is the responsibility of the Buyer. 

For commission inquiries or questions, please contact OfTheAshTreeGKs@yahoo.com

Archer Rain Mikamura GK - Complete

Finished 1-2012

Made for a GK Contest. My Rain Mikamura, with a small mod. Her breasts were separate and looked unnatural to me because, in the anime, there is a system that coats the body in a form-fitting fabric…but it shouldn't suction-cup around each breast, it should stretch across them. So, I puttied in-between the breasts to simulate stretched clothing. Also, the bow came with a thin piece of resin as the string…but I didn't like the look of it, so I removed it and glued a piece of clear fishing wire in its place. The base is made from the lid of a can of Fix-a-Flat XD She still tries to topple a tad if pushed, so I'm looking into a way to weight down the one side a bit more.

I was going for a very pearly, glossy look to her costume, like this picture: http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs15/f/2007/ ... emeGod.jpg

The black parts came out more purple than I would have liked, but it still looks okay and I didn't want to spray transparent black over it to darken it for fear of losing the consistent pearly luster. The pictures from the anime show the bow and spiral resin base being pink, but I thought it looked strange, so I opted for white with lavender/violet gradient.  *As always, click for larger images.

Please enjoy my third completed kit, Rain Mikamura.
