Rates & Services

PLEASE NOTE: NEW POLICIES AS OF 9/1/09

I am no longer doing drastic customs (I will still repaint them, but not remake them) on plastic models by custom order. NONE. 

NO OLD MOLD BREYERS. If it has horrendous seams don't send it to me. If you want an older mold, please find a current incarnation that was produced after 2000

 

None of the following models: Breyer Ideal QH, Khemosabi, Touch of Class, or any other model that has so many biomechanical issues that it couldn't survive as a real animal.

 

Painting –

Pegasus Models -  

These are very time-consuming. You MUST provide/pay for the body and wings. Prices start at $225.00 for a solid color and go up depending on intricacy of paint job. This can also include some mane and tail CMing.  

 

Unicorns -  

These are a basic price of $100.00 for a Classic and $150.00 for a TR. This is with no major remaking, just addition of cloven hooves, horn, feathers, beard, and neck ruff. Also included is a solid color paint job. For other CMing see prices or e-mail for a quote. 

 

Remaking -

I will do resculpting and remaking on resin models. However, I will no longer do drastic remaking projects on plastics by custom order. Minor moves are OK, see pricing below.

 

Small moves/minor resculpting - (for TR sized models)

(e-mail for other sizes) 

Ears twitched - $10.00 an ear

New mane - $15.00 per inch of neck. Will need to add $8.00 for flying/extremely thick manes.

New Tail - $30.00 for TR

                  $20.00 for CL

                  $10.00 for LB

                  $  5.00 for SM

 

Prepwork 

Due to my Fibromyalgia and the strain extentive prepping causes on my hands and wrists, I am charging an extra fee for prepwork on models that have especially bad seams, or that need extensive prepping. There will be a $10 fee for all models up to Classic size and a $15 fee for Traditional sized models that need extensive prepping/seam removal. 

 

Payment Policies –  

Half of price is due before work can begin. The second half is due at completion of the piece. You must provide the body. I will give a small discount for prepped bodies. If you decide part way through work (BEFORE the model is painted) that you have changed your mind and no longer want to continue, I will return the payment only and keep the model (this applies only to CM plastic models that are extensive CMs) I will return your resins or straight repaints, only I will primer over any painting I have already done. However, you must inform me of this decision, don’t just drop off the face of the planet for 6 months and then re-appear wanting your horse. You have 30 days to pay off the rest of the model after it is complete, or I will sell it.

 

I accept Pay Pal, both credit card and non credit card or Postal MO ONLY !!

 

Trade Policies -  

I may consider partial/full trades for CM work (this is just the work, you must still provide the body).

I cannot do full trades on the Pegasus models, I will trade for the actual CM work (which has a trade value of $225.00 to $300.00); however, you must still provide the body and wings.
