Depend on several Factors.
1 Are you doing a Full removal and Repaint or a Touch up? Full removal and Repaint is much more expensive.
2 What Colors are you using? Different Colors can cost different prices. Flat Paint is usually cheaper the Gloss.
3 What kind of Paint? Poly or Lacquer?
5 How complicated is your paint scheme? As in all things Time=Money.
Generally on say a 737? 100-175k. But if your doing something like Alaska Air did? The Sky is Literally the Limit.
I've seen and done paint jobs that used over 700 gallons of Paint but that was on a C-5 and we reprimed and Painted the ENTIRE A/C

Alaska Airlines (with subsidies from the Alaskan fishing industry) spent $500,000 painting their special livery "Salmon-Thirty-Salmon," a Boeing 737: http://www.alaskaair.com/as/www2/Promo/fishplane.asp
A normal paintjob costs well under that, probably in the $125-200K range for the same plane, depending on how complex the paint job is.

Its one of those, if you have to ask you can't afford it things.
Around 300K for the smaller jets.
