“This is a Bandai Star Wars 1/144 scale Slave I kit I received from my son, Matt,
for Christmas,” says Charles. “I'm a firm believer that no matter what your age, you should
always get a toy for Christmas. This was his gift to me.” He built it straight from the box and painted it with Tamiya acrylic applied with cotton swabs. To photograph it, he added cotton balls to the base and used a cloud background from his HO scale model railroad layout.
