Me and Artoo

nephew Zach so the two of us can be in the picture together. This R2-D2 model

I've had since 1978 (Based on a date I must have scribbled in on the model's

inside panel) After almost 36 years the poor little guy was in pieces, so I completely disassembled him, replaced some of the missing parts with one I made myself,

corrected some of the inaccuracies from 'Revell's' original design, and repainted

the little astro droid. The removable rear panel I glued shut. He and I are now

together for all to see...

He's actually in the right hand corner of the photo (actual size). I'm standing in

with a photoshopped version of the same model. I like him better standing on

his two legs, rather than his third. May the Force be with you!
