    Thanks everyone.

    @ Dan, price for commercial parts to DIY a model like this would be around $80. I also build models on commission, but I don't have a set price, too many variables, its negotiated.

    Are you kidding me? I would have expected a much higher price tag for such a detailed model... much higher.

    David,
    Your train set models are outstanding. I am use to building 1/4 and 1/3 scale r/c models that with my SuperCub I can actually stick my head into the cockpit.

    David,
    What kind of camera to you have to take your photos?

    For this house model that I am working on I sent out for quotes for building this model at 1/4" = 1'-0" scale and I was quoted $5,000.00 by two different modeling companies, seems like a lot to me.

    My real short fall is how to price these. I know how much I have in them both time and material but what is a reasonable price that you can expect get for these?
