For "bulk" weathering projects with more than 4 items at a time, these rates apply.
The cost for special projects that involve detailing, kitbashing, scratchbuilding, custom painting and other non-weathering activities is $30 an hour. A precise time log for construction can be kept upon request. The time log will cover actions performed and time required to complete a project. Billing will occur at the end of the project, but a free estimate will be given before any project is approved to let you know a ballpark figure for the project. 

I require that most or all parts for detailing or kitbashing be purchased by you and mailed with the project, unless I expressly state otherwise, which I do with some regularity. Because of Interstate regulations on import/export of paint I can purchase any of the paint we'll need for a project at cost to avoid any problems. If you are unsure of the parts needed to complete a project, I'm more than happy to draw up a list of necessary parts and materials to complete a model.
