how for someone to paint/detail train?

[NYSW F45]

I see some members on here do the painting/assembling/detailing of models. I was just curious what those members sometimes charge? Rough estimates really. I know it could vary on model/paint/details themselves.

I charge based mostly on the model to be painted and what paint scheme. Usually around $100 for a paint/detail job.

I usually estimate double the parts when detailing, though I come down on the price a tad when you're adding more detail, having more done at once, ect.

It's time to act now though, as I've considered removing the cost of shipping from the quote...
