It's not a friggin' Bronysaber for once!
I'm a big big big fan of Disney's new film, "Frozen". I knew as soon as I left the theater that I was gonna make a lightsaber for my favourite character. Elsa is a character whose magical snow and ice powers have controlled her life, leading to isolation and fear. She mainly uses her powers to defend herself, and is very afraid of hurting other people. Basically, she's the perfect Jedi Consular. The design reflects this, making Makashi and Soresu easy to achieve, creating the perfect defense.
Almost all the parts are media blasted to create a "powder snow" look. She sparkles in the light while giving the user a good, slipless grip. The BBW Tri-Rebel is wired to mix the blue and white, creating an "arctic blue" look to the blade (it looks way better in person). There was originally going to be a chrome shroud to accent the media blasting, but I didn't want to risk scratching up the gorgeous look it already had. This saber is also my first to use Madcow's "Hoth" soundfont, letting the weilder feel the icy power of the saber in combat (it's also a pun).
