At Xyele we offer painting classes every Wednesday. If you're not around on Wednesday, stop in anytime, and we'll help you with your painting projects. We currently carry three lines of acrylic paints, brushes and other supplies.

We offer custom painting services for a wide range of miniatures in scales from 6mm up to 25mm. We are a gaming shop and generally do "gaming quality" paint finishes, but are also capable of doing museum and diorama quality painting. We use a variety of brush techniques to achieve a high level of realism at a reasonable price.

All metal miniatures have sprue and flash removed. Then they are cleaned and spray primed. After being base coated with the appropriate color, they are painted and detailed. Ink washing, dry brushing and other techniques are used for the desired effect. Unit marking decals may be applied if desired.



All paints are P3, Vallejo, or Howard Hues acrylics. All minis are then sprayed with a clear laquer finish.
Some people just love to paint.

Since we are gaming-oriented we also provide research services. Our owner has an MA in History and we have all the necessary resources to construct most military units from any period (ancient to modern), in any scale you desire.

For instance, we have 6 suppliers of 1/285-1/300 scale WWII figures and vehicles. We are currently building the 21st Panzer Division as it existed in Normandy June, 1944. This includes a lot of French and even Soviet equipment. By using all of our suppliers and even modifying some vehicles (Marder Is) we will be able to create units average gamers might find impossible.
