I have a wall mural to do and wonder what you would charge for something similar. It is a new Dodge store...18x35’ wall, new stucco with just flat asphalt beneath, no obstructions. The mural will be a band with USA Tough Ram Tough in red with white outline on a gray field, 32x4’
Behind it all will be a section of the USA flag unfurling in the wind, three shades of each red, white and blue. flag will be 32x10'. Fairly realistic and photo-realist from 100 feet away.
All done on a scissor lift in latex.
Any ideas? Be interested in seeing if I am reasonably close to what others would charge.

I hit it $7500, after talking to various pros. Client wants to spend half that. Oh well. He can get some inexperienced painter who will learn all about new stucco.
My experience in dealing with bottom feeders has taught me to simply walk away. Will let him simmer a day or so and take one last swing at him. Life is good.
I do sincerely appreciate all of the opinions from Letterville!

There schould be aviable a penetrol-like oilbased stuff that mixes easily with acrylicpaints. Then you have the first layer of paint and the size in one operation. Thin it well with water, float it onto the wall. Allow drying time.
