Question for commission painters

This is a question for any and all mini painters/modellers/service providers:

Do you charge extra to assemble a large/monster sized model?

I have been approached by a member of my game league to paint the GW bloodthirster. It is unassembled. This would be the first commission I did for a model of this size, usually I get commissioned to do small squads of human sized figures and the price per model I quote includes assembly and basing.

So, do I come up with a price and add an extra \"X\" amount to that for assembly?

Thanks!

Personally, I don\'t, but there\'s a lot out there that do.
Assembly of a piece can make a huge difference in its overall feel.
A slight change of angle on arm A, leg B... positioning may change how you paint it, altogether.

And on a big mini, I\'d say charge extra for it. They take longer.

i dont as i cost assembly into my prices same as i would for basing,etc. and see it as a percentage of the overall cost which goes up for larger items anyway and thus so does the amount set aside for assembly
