just pay the person to build it but it can be distributed anywhere.

More details on low quality, medium quality, and high quality...

Low Quality will contain standard bricks, no curves, wedges, and not very many rounds. Say you wanted a Mario built out of Lego's, it would be only 2*2 bricks. Low Qualities builds will be between 1.50-3.00 a piece.

Medium Quality
will contain some rounds, curves, possibly JVS, and a maybe a few wedges. It will be around 5.00-7.00 a build, depending on quality.

High Quality
will be expensive, and will take many hours to build. They will contain any bricks from any category. They will be from 10.00-12.50.

Of course we can always work something out, if you want something possibly in the middle...

Interested? Send me a PM and we'll work something out, and you'll get a nice build in 1-2 days. Orders that have been agreed upon will not take up to 3 days, as we are constantly building. :)

Yes, that is inevitable. But, I'm willing to give FULL credits to the person who bought the build. They will have bragging rights, etc.  :cookieMonster:

You can probably get people to build stuff for you for free if you're friends with them, but you should probably help them out when asking them if they want to make a high quality build. It should be noted that if you aren't that good at building you could always practice and gradually get better to a point where you can build without having to pay or ask anyone.

Medium-High to High quality builds should be the only ones you should pay for.

I see what you mean, but if someone really wants a turtle, and for whatever reason can't get a friend to make it, and they absolutely suck at building, you can pay a buck for a... turtle.  :cookieMonster:

Oh, also, a low quality build could be something huge, like a giant blockhead figure, with 100k bricks, but it only used simple and standard bricks. It would look nice, but I'd call it low quality because of the bricks used.

Of course it would cost like 15.00 bucks, though.

-snip-

Add-ons don't make the build, it's how use what's available to you.
Stop acting default bricks are some bad thing, they're fine.

I don't think anyone would pay >$10 for a build unless it's something really really really good.

My guess would be around $4 for medium and $8 for better builds. Per-64x baseplate pricing would be about $0.40 for medium and $0.60 for high quality. Additional costs would be possibly another ten cents for detail. Probably add another 20 cents if ts a 64 cube region if the build has substantial z-axis construction.

None of this would be affected by addon usage; that's just dumb. A lot can be done with just default bricks.

Yeah, you shouldn't have some random bullstuff number pulled from your ass.
You have to make some sort of system like this. IRL construction crews usually do stuff per square foot of certain materials so you should go for a system like that it makes more sense and people would believe the price


wait

are we actually doing builds-on-commission now

how do i get in on this

I don't know..

The plan is still under construction. I'm just afraid if I add a price for how many bricks there are, people will whine.

>$10 is a high price for a build. And $1.5 for a turtle also seems very high. Unless we're talking a oversized, realistic model with ~500 bricks.






A medium build, only took an hour. If you want to see a high quality build give us an idea and we'll make it happen.. as you can see, were still in "Were trying to show you how we build" mode.

Were not going to waste our time in a high quality build that doesn't make sense. Give us an idea and we'll make it.

I would legitly pay $2-$5 for that.

How much would you guys pay for this build when its done? Its going to be BIG river with lots of terrain and a few cabins.
