I have no idea what that would cost, that would be for you to discuss with the professional model builder.
I take building commissions from time to time, but am taking a hiatus this year because we are moving cross country.
Depending on what you want, a build/paint can cost hundreds of dollars, to thousands of dollars. Usually, you will have to supply the kit if it’s something rare or unusual. Some model builders will source the kit for you.
I would contact Mark Myers of The Third Models. You can look him up of Facebook, or email him at:
[email protected]He’s a great guy, and is pretty well known for his Star Trek subjects. I know he’s been featured in several magazines, and online forums. Tell him Jeff said hello.
@jkirkon
I'm interested. What does something like that cost?
ETA: I did see where this is a service. One major question I had was....how is a plastic model protected for shipment?
