Thread: Lightsaber featuring my latest crystal chamber!

    Talking Lightsaber featuring my latest crystal chamber!

    Hello again guys!
    This is my latest design featuring modified mhs parts+sinktube and the "strange" crystal chamber I made last week.
    It is not finished yet...

    PS:all the rings on the base of the hilt will be gold and the two black bit on the top will probably be gold too.
    I am looking forward for some feedback and any ideas that you may have!
    Cheers

    Yeah, that crystal chamber looks good mounted inside the saber. Looks like it's an actual functional piece of the hilt and not just some eye candy show piece. I'm going to use that wire feed idea myself(only with one or two wires).

    I like the emitter shaping, and the windows for the crystal chamber are very cool.

    The hilt past the chamber needs a lot of clean up though. With the emitter being so distinctive, I'd think the hilt would be a nice contrast if it was a little more simple. Don't go too overboard with the shiny, the sculpting gives this sabre a lot of character without extra color.
    Yes, I spell it sabre. I just like it that way.

    It is stubby. With one 7" hilt section, and a blade holder, the MHS parts are maybe a little over 9", he's including the emitter forks, or whatever in the length.

    I think the hilt is too busy. Keep it simpler, and let the crystal chamber be the busy part so it doesn't have to compete with the hilt.

    I like it.. I dont think the business of the hilt takes away from the crystal chamber. the exposed wires and stuff make it look a little crude and I find it makes it look star warsy
    there are alternatives to fighting..............like gettin the hell outa here!!!!!
