What would be the going rate to do the following:

Make a ship with the Teutoburg back half, the third "nacelle" or whatever its called on the Premonition and the saucer shape of the Premonition. Must include everything to have a fully functional, buildable ship in FLEET OPERATIONS, match the style of FLEET OPERATIONS and the ship should be about 4/5 the size of the SOVEREIGN. Each piece should conform to make the ship look like an original and not a piece meal.

You'll find there is no going rate it's up to the individual modeller/artist what they prefer to charge for their effort and time. Some will charge more for difficult or out of their usual area of expertise. For example I am a TMP era modeller when it comes to Star Trek and not overly comfortable to doing post TLE ships. There is a lot more complexity when it comes to future Federation ships.
Also you'll find every artist has their own abilities and style when it comes to textures. Trying to match the FO style can be difficult for many artists.

Thanks for replying. I'm going to see if there is anyone interested. You never know.

This sounds like a fun ship to build. I might as well give it a shot - if you don't mind that there won't be an ETA. Life is complex...
The Teutoburg part would need some heavy rework though because the third nacelle of the Prem would obstruct the Teo's deflector. PM me if you're interested.
