Talk about painful SW memories, I made a scale model of the Millenium Falcon. (from blueprints and made it out of Balsa wood) and gave it a very good paint job to closely match the movie look. It was a labour of love and it was to die for. My nephew was young (8 years old) and would always tell me how much he loved the model and used to sit and examine it to his hearts content. Being his godfather, I decided that he would be able to take good care of it and decided to give it to him for his 9th birthday. He was overjoyed and very grateful that I would give him my prized possesion.

Well, that model didn't Last more than two weeks before it was totally destroyed. I haven't made any models since, and still don't have the will to get back into modeling.

To make a long story short, sell the stuff, only give it away if the alternate choice is to place it in the trash. It will be less painfull that way.

nuf said, cheers!
