SleekPixel for miniature painters
SleekPixel reads each commission post's title, scale, painting tier, game system, and turnaround time, then renders an Instagram-sized card on save. Tabletop, tabletop-plus, and display-level commissions share one studio identity without manual layout work.

Commission work that looks like a studio, not a hobby
Miniature painters earn commissions through Instagram. Wargamers and collectors browse the hashtag for their faction, find a painter whose feed shows consistent quality across many commissions, and DM for a quote. The bottleneck is rarely the painting, it is the consistency of the feed. A painter posting raw phone photos of finished squads competes with painters posting clean studio shots with scale, tier, and game-system labels baked into the image.
SleekPixel turns the WordPress commission post into the source of the card. The fields the studio already tracks (post_title, a scale taxonomy for 28mm, 32mm, 54mm, 75mm, a tier field for tabletop, tabletop-plus, and display, a game_system taxonomy, and a turnaround_days field) feed a template you design once. Every commission inherits the layout, the scale badge, the tier line, and the studio handle.
The plugin writes the rendered card into og:image and twitter:image on the post head. Clients reshare delivered-commission links into faction-specific groups and the studio handle reaches every wargamer who scrolls past.

Comparison
Phone snapshot vs SleekPixel for miniature painters
Phone photo with hashtag caption
- Phone snapshots of finished squads bury the scale and tier in the caption
- Tier labels like tabletop-plus get typed inconsistently across every commission
- Game system tags scroll past in hashtags rather than anchoring on the image
- Studio handle gets cropped off when reshared into faction groups on Instagram
- Updating the studio brand means re-editing every portfolio photo individually
SleekPixel
-

post_titleandscale - Tier field renders as a clear badge so tabletop and display-level visually separate
- Game system taxonomy anchors the faction on the image, not just in hashtags
- Turnaround days field surfaces honest expectations on every shared portfolio link
-
Falls back cleanly when an older commission is missing the

Features
What SleekPixel gives you for miniature painter
Scale and tier badges
Map 28mm, 32mm, 54mm, and 75mm scales to accent colors and corner marks. Tabletop, tabletop-plus, and display tiers each render distinctly so prospects compare like-for-like.
Same data, every platform
The same scale, tier, and system fields drive the Instagram square, the Pinterest pin, and the studio website portfolio grid. One source of truth across every surface where wargamers browse.
Studio handle on every reshare
The studio handle anchors the bottom of every card. When a faction Facebook group reshares the delivered Custodian squad, the studio mark travels with the image instead of getting buried.
Use cases
Where this fits a miniature painter's content workflow
Delivered commissions
Each completed commission gets a portfolio card with scale, tier, game system, and figure count auto-rendered from the post fields.
Painting tutorials
How-to posts on NMM, freehand banners, and weathering use a tutorials template variant that surfaces the skill level and approximate time.
Competition entries
Golden Demon, Crystal Brush, and Armies on Parade entries render with a competition-event variant that includes year, category, and award if applicable.
The bigger picture
Why miniature painters book commissions through the feed preview
Wargamers shopping for a commission painter scroll the hashtag for their faction and stop on the painter whose feed reads as a studio rather than a hobby. The painting itself sets the ceiling, but the consistency of the feed sets the floor. A painter who posts raw phone photos of finished squads with vague captions loses every quote request to a painter whose feed shows clean studio shots with scale, tier, and game-system labels on every image.
The reason is not snobbery, it is that the prospect needs to know in two seconds whether this painter does the work they want at the tier they can afford. A card with 32mm, tabletop-plus, and Adeptus Custodes baked into the layout answers that in two seconds. A caption that buries the same details under three lines of hashtags loses the prospect before they read it.
Multiply that across a year of delivered commissions, and the painter who ships consistent cards across every project becomes the painter whose queue stays booked four to six months out, while painters posting inconsistent feeds chase quote leads through the slow season.
Questions
Common questions about SleekPixel for miniature painter
Yes. Map 28mm, 32mm, 54mm, and 75mm scales to hex values in the template settings. 32mm can render with a purple accent, 75mm with a deep crimson, 28mm with whatever the studio chooses. The template stays the same.
 Yes. The tier field is a select with values like tabletop, tabletop-plus, and display. The template renders the value as a clear badge, and the underlying price band can live in a separate field that the public card omits.
 Flag the commission post as private or set a custom field for NDA status. SleekPixel skips OG rendering for non-public posts by default, so under-NDA studio work never exposes a share card.
 Yes. Map game system terms to icon assets in the template settings. Warhammer 40k can render the studio's Warhammer mark, Age of Sigmar a different mark, Bolt Action and Star Wars Legion each with their own custom icons.
 Use a separate template variant for the Competitions taxonomy that omits the studio mark and accent block, so a Golden Demon entry photo renders clean while delivered commissions render fully branded.
 
Instagram reads the OG image meta tag for link previews. SleekPixel writes the rendered file to og:image, so the card surfaces wherever Instagram surfaces previews in DMs, stories, and bio links.
Yes. The admin includes a bulk regenerate action scoped to the Commissions post type. Update the studio logo or accent and trigger a regeneration; every existing portfolio card refreshes in the background.
 Yes. SleekPixel writes the rendered image into the standard featured image and OG image slots, so any portfolio grid plugin that reads those fields displays the same branded card across the website grid.
