Thread: J.R.S's Starkiller inspired saber (first full MHS Build)

    That's a lot to pack into one saber. The only feature it's missing is flash on clash. Nice job. I like colour changing chambers. I did one last summer. The only change I'd recommend is to swap the thumb screw on the underside to a glass eye screw. They can actually light up too if you can drill it out. Otherwise the current thumbscrew may be more appealing with a cup washer under it.

    Thanks you, and yes it is loud, but not quite as loud as it seems, I think its just that I was shooting it while it was sitting on a large piece of glass and the camera is only about 10 to 12 inches away.

    Thank you. I got the idea for the color change chamber from your Raxis Primal saber, which is still, I think, my all time favorite lightsaber. As for the thumbscrew it is something I'm looking to change although Im not sure with what yet, I'll give the cup washer idea a try.

    I love the color change crystal chamber. Really accents the amber blade well IMO. Nice Job!!

    Very Nice... I am going to build a starkiller soon myself now that my garage is starting to come around.

    Like everyone else said, awesome on hinting on Starkiller while making it your own! I'm curious on the bars in front of the crystal. Are they custom made from something?

    I completely agree - this is well thought out and executed with that 'real work-a-day' light saber look. No Jedi would be unhappy to wear it!

    Congratz on excellent work and I really like how you took the basic SK theme but 'made it your own'. Personally I've always preferred custom sabers 'inspired' by those in the movies, games etc rather than exact replicas and this epitomizes that Creativity imo...BRAVO!
