Other Bounty Hunter Regarding Stormtrooper Armor Commissions Pricing

[KamikazePigeon]

Hi All!

I have thought about making stormtrooper armor from the Original Star Wars Trilogy and then casting (or vacuum-forming) the parts and selling them Via Commissions. The only problem is, I have no Idea how I would price each commission. Would I rice them based off of the materials I used to make it? The cost of shipping the pieces to the customer? Should I charge a little bit more if I give the option of painting special designs (i.e. shock trooper, commander, shadow stormtrooper, etc.) for them? I am totally lost on this kind of thing, mostly because this is the first time I’ve thought about this.

Please help!

It all depends upon how good your armour turns out to be . If it is dead on screen accurate , you can ask good money , if it is only fit for office Halloween party's , you can't .
Whatever decisions you make , don't be tempted to recast or copy someone elses armour .
Good luck , and take plenty photos , it should be an interesting build diary !
