So, what do you charge for something like that?

[AceHelis]

For that paint scheme I charge 175.00. That includes the canopy and also windshield art if desired. Its a little cheaper if no windshield art.

That looks cool but I think that a little to high for my pocket, i'd turn it in to a shovel anyways

When you start your company can I come and work for you, we could make alot of money from these folks?

$175.00:shock:? I need to stop painting sandrails and get into heli canopies. I airbrush canopies on the side of my graphics company www.sandrailgraphics.com (http://www.sandrailgraphics.com).
I dont mean to sound rough or rude and by all means get what you think its worth as far as your time but a canopy is so small. Like I said though I only airbrush my own and friends so I havent ever crunched numbers to really see what its worth so dont take my comment as an insult I dont mean it that way. Those tiny little graphics can be a pain though for sure, not much room for mistakes.

Looks great. It's hard to do if you don't do it day in day out.

Canomod charges between $80 and $100 and their stuff is very nice. Unless you can compete with them I think it will be a hard sell.

As already said "charge what you think your stuff is worth".

Hats off, way way better than I can do with what I have. Mine looks like a soccer shirt that got torn up and stuck on....... but it only cost me two cans of paint and three stickers. The paint has already painted two others.

I'll take the links to my pic down if it bothers you, it shouldn't, at least you somebody to make fun of and make yours look that much better. :YeaBaby:

thanks to all for your comments. Yes it is difficult to do. And just so you guys know, that is the most difficult paint job that I do. I only use Rustoleum spray paints and then clear with a regular two part auto epoxy clear. Most of my paint schemes run 135 for a 50 size to 155 for a 90. And that includes the canopy. Take a look at my store page to get a better idea of what I do. And LotoffunR that is a fine looking paint job. well done. Here is a link to m store page.
