Maybe I am just getting old. But $15.00 USD for just one 6mm building seems kinda high for me. |

"Maybe I am just getting old. But $15.00 USD USD for just one 6mm building seems kinda high for me." Strictly speaking from a manufacturing point of view the cost of development is quite high and time to build the master (average scuplting prices are 10 dollars per mm) the mold is probly around $60 USD USD dollars (and lasts on average 100 pours) to make probably if its solid resin your looking at 7.00 per building pour costs not to mention needing a pressure pot and compressorfor molding (mine were about $500 USD total and thats a 2 gallon compressor and a 2 1/2 gallon pot). You also need vacume chamber and vacume pump for molding (about 500.00 USD again) so hes actulally making about a dollar or two a building. Dosn't sound so bad now once you look at these costs. |

Looks like it would cost me way more than $15 USD to make my own – seems ok to me – and Moe, that building looks really cool |

Darkrazor – that's some very interesting information and insight into what goes into the production of those resin models. You could certainly put together a beautiful modern Western CBD with these. |
