The most entertaining part of the build was reading the box which states this is the second Death Star, "but the project ran behind schedule" and had to be visited by the emperor to encourage more work to be done. So even in a future of laser beams and anti-gravity devices, dictatorships will still be the worst at successfully completing high-quality projects.
It is about 60mm across. BanDai says it fits in the palm of your hand. I bought it at a flea market. It took two hours to spray paint; highlight; and assemble. The exterior was painted Vallejo flat black, then rubbed and sanded off to leave only the panel lines. The same was done to highlight the decks under construction. Those were also brushed with dried silver off a toothbrush.
