After being let down by the last builder who decided just not to build at all, I'm seeking a capable, reliable and experienced builder who can put together a good looking Imperial Storm Trooper Avatar. (Star Wars  ) It is for the use of a Roleplay Group and therefore will be needed Full Perms (Copy/Mod/Transfer). I'm looking to pay in the region of L$10,000 for it. If anyone thinks they might be able to do this well, then they should Contact Tenyaka Denja in-world via. IM, or notecard if he's offline. Please have previous examples of work available to exhibit THANK YOU

$10,000L is probably not enough money for the work required.
Maybe if they charged as low as $2500L/hr....which is incredibly low for that type of work.
Also, that sort of avatar can easily be resold, permanently - and $10,000L is hardly compensation to the maker for that.

From a certain point of view...

As someone who would be using said avatar, the ability to mod would be amazing, however, if resize scripting was available, then certain mod rights would not be required.
For example Furious' Trooper armor has this and it allows me to reshape the armor to fit my shape. Whereas with the 501st current armor I had to change my shape to fit into the non-mod armor.
As for reselling, the creator interested would likely realize that the roleplay group is looking for an exclusive armor that we wouldn't just want to allow just anyone to have. Otherwise we would just be using one of the 15 available commercial armor variations now.
While Briana is certainly entitled to her opinion, I've found that most capable builders of specialized themes (like Star Wars) don't do it for the money anyway.
But lets explore that. As we would be seeking a variation on the classic white (I'm assuming this is in regards to the two divisions), the maker could certainly market their non-exclusive variations of a quality armor to the hungry SW masses and make plenty of lindens on top of what the group is offering.
Just a thought.
