Hourly rates are 170 for the first hour of a sitting, and 150 an hour until the end of the sitting.
Couple of questions.
1. Has anyone found a better shot of the shoulder patch on the short leather jacket?
2. Has anyone worked on the actual belt, not the buckle, but the belt itself? I haven't found a picture that will show me the back, but I've seen some that show off the sides a bit.

The clay was just clay, but the silicone for the mold and the plastic were both Dragon Skin.

Is he wearing a translator behind his ear?

For the premiere I plan on everything but the Helmet, with Halloween and Cons being the time to break it out. I don't want to be in a crowded theater with this helmet on my lap, constantly worried that it will drop or get scratched.
On that note though, another piece of the puzzle has arrived. The Haynes shirt as everyone else has got. I decided on the "Denim Blue" colour, because in my eyes it looked the closest in references. In person I'm a bit less thrilled with it, but it will work for me. Maybe if I distress it some I'll be happier.
I'm ok with the fit, but could have gone a size smaller (from L->M). I may give the shirt a hot wash and a dry cycle and see if it shrinks any.

I bought the same shirt, in both a S and M. I'm much smaller than you. The S was way too tight, the Medium was a little to big, so I kept the M and i'm having it altered by a friend to fit better. I don't like the ribbed wrists and it's too long for me, so i'm having the sleeves shortened and the body hemmed to fit better so I can show off the belt. With the jacket on, it looks pretty good together.
Bit of a silly question, but considering Walkmans were just before my time, does anyone have a guess as to what type of Walkman Starlord is sporting? Would this be the closet to that one?
Also, does anyone know where to get the orange foam earpads for the headphones? I've been looking around, but no luck. Thanks!

It's a Sony TPS-L2. It's blue and silver, it says sony at the top and walkman at the bottom of the face.
They are still available, but I think it was the first cassette walkman, so they are rare and sought after by collectors, not just star lord cosplayers.
I have seen a few come up on Ebay. But they go for $100+. I think what you have is pretty good.
The headphones came up on an UK site recently and i got a pair, but i don't know the link off hand, and I think they sold out because they were very cheap.

I got these as well. They are great for the cosplay, but if you plug them in and listen to some tunes you find out why they are so cheap :lol

LOL, i hadnt tried with mine yet. I might just clip the wires off and hang the headphones around my neck. 
Keep in mind that he wears two short jackets in the movie. If you go with the Fan Jackets pre made jacket there is no shoulder patch, but there is a long greeblie on it.
There is actually some sort of patch or design on the left bicep of that jacket, there just hasn't been a clear shot of it yet

Funny that it comes up again now. I just saw a clip that shows his shoulder pretty clearly.
It looks like the same sort of metal pieces you can see in a few places on his long coat. For example, check out the bottom of this pic.
There's also the Hot Toys figure to look at, but I don't know if it's completely accurate. (Open 3rd one from the bottom in a new tab for the best view you can get)
