lets see.. painting I'd say a solid 7. The couple of nit picks would be the hair on the elves could use a bit more shading as well as some of the golds.
Assembly, you look to have missed a couple of mold lines. A major on the yolk of the corpse cart and some minor ones on the head of the zombies. This could be just the camera picking up on something that the eye can't see, but they are there. The boar and the wolves could use some filling and leveling around the line that the models come together, the boar around the upper head and jaw.
Also, and I'll admit that I'm bad at this as well, when assembling a unit one has to make sure that the models rank up square. From the looks of things you have this down, but the hero and the standard of the spearmen look to be a pain to rank together properly. The shield I think. Also I would recommend that you number the bottom of the bases so that your client can easily rank the troops back up before and after games.

Just my two cents. Take it or leave it, just keep painting.

Hi Hazelanne, some feedback...

Lots of drybrushing, moldlines & gaps. Steady away for army painting :good: If they were in the Gallery & I was voting they'd get a 5. Better presented with a neat backdrop, aligned bases, etc. you might squeeze a 6 out of me on a good day for unit shots & for sure on the full armys.

I'd recommend going back in with each colour for quick touchups. The yellow on the knee of the front rank Elf Spearman is a standout. The banner of that unit could do to be on a banner pole rather than a spear in order to raise it, it looks like lazy modelling despite the effort that's gone into the banners themselves.

The basing for the boar, I assume that the rock it is stood on is part of the model? It looks as though it is sat on the water rather in it. A few thick layers of PVA or Varnish over the water may help (let each one dry before applying the next).

The metal on the bolt-thrower is begging for a dark wash to give it some shape.

All things that take more time though I admit, not something you can necesarily afford when this is supposed to make you money. As long as the client is happy you're winning

Cheers, B.

@mud duck
Thank you for the comments, i think im really having difficulties of wrapping out the mold lines in plastics i never fixed them before but its a good feedback so that in the future when doin these ill try to fix it out thanks
