Shop Question - What comes Painted?

Ok, background: I am new to this hobby and so far have only used GW models, which always come unpainted and need assembled/cleaned. When I am in the CMON shop though, sometimes it is hard to know exactly what I am looking at. Is everything unpainted?

Examples of good shop pages, I know these models come unpainted:
Page 1: Picture set shows that it comes un-painted
Page 2: Product description says it comes un-painted

These ones are not so clear:
Page 3: Sculpture listed, single painted picture
Page 4: No description, single picture, looks "signed" do to card add in
Page 5: The painter is listed. If its unpainted, does the wall for the base come with it?

Page 6: CMON Fig 1
Page 7: CMON Fig 2


I am sure this is an easy one for people who have been buying minis for a while, but as a new painter, those pages are confusing!

I am hoping that everything is unpainted, as buying already painted models is of no interest to me.

Thanks in advance!



P.S. I am not looking at the ebay actions. I would expect those to come as advertised/pictured, and so am not concerned with those for this post.

There are pre-painted gaming minis, but those are usually sold in multiple-figure packs and I don't think CMON sells any such things. The painting quality of pre-painted minis is also always extremely basic and there is no way that it would get even close to the examples of painted minis you linked to. As to wether parts of basing are included or not... can't say in that specific case, but if you assume it is not (which is most often the case) you won't be dissappointed. If it happens to be included, well... added bonus.
