[Darth Benzar]

Just thought id introduce myself in this topic since it fit me better. I am Darth Benzar I cosplay Dark Starkiller, My girlfriend is Empress Darth Alura she cosplays Mara Jade. We both design and make our own costumes for comic cons/conventions. I have a redbelt in Tae Kwon Do with multiple kendo stick and sparring tournament 1st-3rd places. Currently we use saber bodies and soundboards from the other guys but like to customize them with TCSS pommels, chokes and emitters. So here some photos of us and you will be seeing more of...enjoy

Welcome to the Forums!

[RavenXp]

Indeed, welcome. Love the pics.

[Starwinder]

Cool costumes. And welcome to the forum!

Awesome, love the work. I found trooping with a blade encumbering. I can only imagine two. I guess shorter blades are the key? I run mine at 36" as it is what I duel with.

Ya. Im running 32" blades. @' are in the hilt so 30' stick out. I make sure as long as they come off the ground when attached to my belt 1 1/2- 2". This way I can walk around and not have to slop, attach blades for photos or keep my hands always occupied with holding them.....thanks yall for the welcomes
