This is my first model I ever painted to sell, though I have no idea where to even start a bid at. So along with painting suggestions I would appreciate suggestions for pricing. Both riders are painted and magnetized so they can be swapped out. Thank you for looking :)

A simple way to fix over-exposure from the flash is to use a piece of folded tissue paper over the flash to diffuse it. For auction work, you should be sure to include the whole model in the picture (this one cuts off the base) as well as illustrating any customizations (like your magnetization). Use a free image editing program, like GIMP or PhotoShop Elements to crop out the dead space around the model. The flash notwithstanding, the paintwork on this model looks fairly so-so. You're unlikely to get bids much higher than the value of the model without a significantly better paintjob than the average gamer would expect. I started in professional painting by buying cheap models on eBay, painting them and then re-selling them, usually with a very low starting price. It should give you an idea of how other value your services and might even generate some commissions from happy customers.

Yea I am afraid my camera is making my work look horrible, working on getting a new one or at least I am going to con a friend into taking them for me until I get a better one.

Hi there! I'd suggest that if you're wanting to sell your work you need a decent camera setup. The flash has really killed this model, and the work doesn't look good as a consequence. It looks like it's been drybrushed, but I think this is probably the harsh light.
