It was Jason that actually inspired me to submit my work to magazines, and to Scott here, and he's a great friend... I apologize for getting wound up at the comment made earlier by another member, but found it uncalled for. I agree that his work alone speaks volumes.
As for adding the price of the rendering on this project, I feel that the point would be moot... the idea here was to view the renderings as a bunch of guys just throwing ideas around, and as a way to give a visual springboard for the build. Besides, giving something back to the community here was a pleasure (and an excuse to draw more!) Had this been a full-bore, ground-up build focusing on body and interior mods, etc, then hell yes, a rendering should be a requirement to have all involved on the same page, and, of course, figured in to the budget. For a community build, where the focus is on teaching those new to the hobby, the renderings are just what I said before, a visual springboard, and another aspect to consider when planning a build, that being hiring a designer to help narrow the vision.
Great points made by all!
