Looking good!
DC approved. Not that means anything :p
Definitely a unique-looking hilt here.
Nice work
I'm finally finished with this saber. I put the CFv7.5 in it, because I wanted the pulse effect. I'm OK with the way the saber turned out, but I'm not terribly thrilled about it. I need to be done with it though. I do like the cool lava-looking effect from the pulse. I used leftover blade foam (neopixel) to diffuse the light.
The story behind this saber is that a master sent his apprentice to steal the egg from a Dathomirian viper. These vicious creatures only spawn eggs once every 500 standard years, and they are believed to enhance force abilities. The apprentice failed to retrieve the egg. Worse, the viper clawed his saber right out of the apprentice's hand. When he returned to his master, he got sent him back to fight the viper with only the Force. The master intended the mission to be a death sentence. The apprentice sought revenge. The apprentice returned, not with the egg, but also with his retrieved-but-damaged saber, a captured spawnling, and the skin of a slaughtered Dathomirian viper. It's told that such a skin has mystical properties and can withstand the blade of a lightsaber. What if one used such a skin in construction of a new saber....

This saber is a beauty. The etching and claw damage is awesome and that backstory conjures some great imagery. :cool:

Its a very cool saber. I love it, and the backstory.
