The K.B. Saber

[Blue Fox]

So, many moons ago, I did some saber designs in Lightwave that I thought would be a bit of a challenge to build.




Well... it took some time, but here is the K.B. Built by DoClo. There are minor differences but it did stay true to the design. If you're going to the convention then you will get to see it in person if you meet him.




I wasn't going to share pics of this one but I thought it was too good not to. ^_^

Congratulations! I am glad to see you get another dream saber built. Don did a beautiful job.

[Blue Fox]

Actually, this is Don's. Most of the sabers I design I dont see ever being built. They are just my imagination at work. Don said he was actually going to keep this one.
I couldn't tell you what is in it beyond that it's EL and tri-rebel.

I'd like to get back into doing designs but I dont have the time to work on my models these days.

[Vlad Doon]

Superb design, and thumbs up to Doclo. I still don't know how he acheived such windowed rings... Superb again

[Silver Serpent]

Very impressive. It looks like he used the EL wire to make the illuminated rings.

Beautiful saber and the renderings are just stunning.

[Darth Ryo]

Impressive indeed, excellent curves!
I wonder how those rings are lit on the body looks so cool!

[Crystal Chambers]

Cool.... My guess is the EL wire is fit into lathed grooves. It does give the illusion the slots are cut through.

[Batosai]

that's one of the coolest sabers I have ever seen!
Impressive!
A view more pictures would be nice

[Blue Fox]

Thank you for your comments.
When DoClo gets back from the convention I will ask him for more photos. I think it uses an Ultra Sabers sound board with its own custom fonts too. But i will see if i can get the specs tonight. There is another saber in the works that will feature the lit ridges and uses a Makototsai blade. It's almost done, and I will post pics when it's finished.
