Hidden WristSaber Version 2.0

[Dalesabers]

Hey Guys,
This is my first build post on the forums so enjoy. It's a custom prop piece that is in it's second stage of development and will be refined greatly in the 3rd version. It's essentially a collaboration project for a mutual friend of the girlfriend and I.

He wanted to do a costume combining elements of Assassins Creed and The Force unleashed and what was born was the Jedi Assassin. I'll post pictures of the final costume when it has come to finish at the Toronto Force Gathering for the 2011.

So let me know what you think

Personally I'm not getting a couple of things with this build.

1. Jedi Assasin.... Really. I say this because inspiration can often make the difference between a good saber or bad.
2. What is the box bit????

We need some closer shots to give some good advice on how to improve this.

Right now I'm not too keen.

[Dalesabers]

well the name was something that was coined in the creation of the costume and the box was just to cover the exposed electronics and track guide for the blade.

Jedi Assasin.... Really.

Dident have to make it sound like that.

The rest looks ok, but the box IMO ruins it, it's just so big.

agreed - it needs a bit of streamlining.

[Dalesabers]

yeah the issue as to that was just a bit of recycling. I had little time to redo a second box for the pictured version (was on a tight deadline for a convention) but the third one would be drastically streamlined and improved on a lot of points.

The points that I have noted would be a change of activation (instead of going over a lever switch it'll touch plates), it'll have some cell batteries instead of AAs and definitly have a cleaner look since I have plenty of time to build the 3rd version. The box would also be much smaller to accomodate the improvements that I've listed for the next version that'll be built.

so does the saber detatch from the deployment device for normal saber use?

[Forgetful Jedi Knight]

It has some promise, but only the Sith would use something like that for assassinations. I'd be curious to see the final outcome.

no the blade is permantly attached in this version. The next one will have a removeable blade.

We thought about that and went into the classification that he'd fall under the Jensaari order but since they were indocturned into the NJO, we decided to keep it classfied as a jedi character.
