Who likes organic looking sabers?

[Luke-SkyMarcher]

I really like your design, Corbin... I think it's very elvish-looking, like it came from Rivendell. Reminds me of a high-elven style saber I was considering doing a while back.

i really like the look of them, i am not a very good sculpter, so i would have to devise other means if i ever decide to make one .

[Jeb Ardunis]

It is a toss-up between organic and sculpted. I'd venture to say that the organic style would indeed seem as if the saber were to be formed via the rock/wood material look. Quite possibly, and I could be talking from my rear here, that LS Jedi wield more a 'wood' type hilt, whereas DS Jedi/Sith wield more a 'rock' type. I figure it to be a better way to reflect the wielding character's persona (soul, if you will...) if the material it's casted from be semi-resemblant of their alignment.

Regardless, I do dig the designs...

Hard to get more "organic" then these... thats right... Wookie sabers!!!

[Mat Katarn]

that first wookiee saber is tight, maven. you make that sucker?

[Sairon]

That saber looks like the one from Plo-Koons master, don't remember his name though.

You're walking a fine line when you make organic sabers.

If you're not careful they can turn out looking like victorian table legs, a pile of twisted metal, or Medivial sword hilt w/o the blade.

However, if they turn out well, they can be more beautiful than regular lightsabers.

You really have to have fine taste and a lot of skill to make a Organic saber look good.

Im so glad this thread got resurrected. I was looking everywhere for pics of that aquatic saber Corbin posted. I based my last CF saber Ferus Gladius off of that design. The emitter stuck in my head and I wanted to make an exact copy one day.

I knew that shroud design looked familiar Fender I also really liked that saber but didn't remember where it was from. The one you made that was inspired by it was very sharp, very well done.
