European service

Miniature Painting Service in Europe

EU-based miniature painting studio specialising in Warhammer 40K, Age of Sigmar, busts and board game commissions for collectors and players across Europe and the UK.

Bierzo Art Studio is an EU-based miniature painting service offering professional commission painting to private collectors, players and businesses across Europe. All the major systems and formats are covered — Warhammer 40K, Age of Sigmar, The Horus Heresy, Kill Team, Warcry, modern board games and collector busts — with tabletop, display and competition tiers tailored to your goals.

Choosing a European studio has tangible advantages over hiring outside the EU: faster shipping, no customs duties between EU member states, communication in English (and Spanish or German if you prefer) and a legal framework you already know. Clients in Spain, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Austria, the Nordic countries and beyond all receive tracked and insured shipping for every order.

Whether you want a single character at competition level or a full army planned in batches with partial deliveries, your commission arrives on time, within a fixed quote and finished to a consistent professional standard.

Benefits

Why choose a European miniature painting service

Hiring an EU-based studio gives you concrete benefits compared to contracting overseas.

No customs duties inside the EU

Your order arrives without customs or import duties — unlike commissions painted in Asia or the Americas, where unexpected charges can appear at delivery.

Fast tracked shipping across Europe

Parcels reach most EU countries within a few business days using tracked and insured courier services, with packaging specifically prepared for painted miniatures.

Communication in English, Spanish and German

Your project is handled in your language of choice, with the same dedicated contact throughout — no handoffs, no misunderstandings.

Fixed written quotes with no hidden fees

Every commission is confirmed with a written, fixed-price quote and a clear deadline. Nothing changes between the quote and the final invoice.

Finishing tiers for every goal

Clean tabletop armies for tournament play, display and near-exhibition quality pieces for the cabinet, and competition-standard finishing with realistic metallic effects, glowing light sources and hand-painted iconography for contest entries.

Work-in-progress photos at every key stage

Images are shared at every key stage so colours, contrast and detail can be validated before the work moves on — no surprises at delivery.

Specialised packaging for international transit

Rigid boxes with technical foam cut to the shape of each miniature, designed to protect painted pieces through every stage of international shipping.

Painting references kept for future expansions

All references from your project are kept on file so future units, characters or expansions can be painted to match your existing army or collection perfectly.

How a European commission works

Every project starts with a conversation. Share which miniatures you want painted, the game system, the desired tier and any references or colour schemes you have in mind. A written, fixed-price quote with a clear deadline, payment schedule and shipping terms is then prepared for your review.

Once confirmed, the project is booked into the studio calendar and shipping instructions are sent. Miniatures assembled or on sprues are both accepted; assembly and priming can be handled if you prefer. Work proceeds in batches, with progress photos at each key stage so the direction can be validated before continuing.

When the project is finished, the most representative pieces are photographed in studio and everything is packed in custom boxes with technical foam. Shipping is tracked and insured across the EU and to the UK, Switzerland and Norway on request. Touch-ups, repeats and future expansions remain available afterwards.

Frequently asked questions about our EU miniature painting service

Where is the studio based?

The studio is based in Spain, inside the European Union, and ships to most European countries with no customs duties for EU recipients.

Do you ship to the UK after Brexit?

Yes — with tracked, insured services. UK shipments may incur local VAT and customs duties, which are the recipient's responsibility.

What languages can I communicate in?

English, Spanish or German — your choice, with the same dedicated contact throughout the project.

How much does a commission cost?

It depends on the number of miniatures, their size and the chosen tier. Every commission is quoted individually with a written, fixed-price proposal — free and with no obligation.

How long does a commission take?

A single piece usually takes a few weeks. A full army may take several months and is planned in batches with optional partial deliveries so you can start using the pieces as they are completed.

Do you accept commissions from companies?

Yes — private collectors, shops, clubs, publishers and studios across Europe are all welcome, with intra-EU VAT invoicing available for business clients.
