Thread: Doppelganger

  1. #1

    Default Doppelganger

    This is the 4th hilt I decided to build but the second completed.

    This one I can't take credit for the design though. I saw a hilt called "Jaded" over at Parks and I really liked the basic design so I decided to see if I couldn't create a look-alike using MHS parts. I've named this hilt "Doppelganger" for obvious reasons. I did add a couple of my own touches however including o-ring grips and my first use of a Graflex clamp.

    I'm quite pleased with the results. A pretty basic hilt I suppose

    I haven't yet decided what guts are going to go into it yet at all. I'm open to suggestions on blade color and LED type etc.



    I'll post some better pics later.

    i think this saber looks more sith, and therefore i suggest a red.

    That's the canon Mara Jade Skywalker hilt. It's known throughout geekdom to have a purple blade. Look up "Mara Jade" or "Mare Jade Lightsaber", and you should get plenty of example pics.

    Hilt looks good!

    I think my Star Wars geek cred just dropped about 100 points -- LOL

    On the bright side, at least I copied something canonical

    Nice! Replicated a canon saber without knowing it, fantastic!
    Sure you could go with the purple, I think an amber or yellow would suit this one nicely too.

    Nice saber. I also think Amber would look good.

    Looks real good with a full clamp.

    Personally I think that hilt looks good in a blue or a green, but a red-o would be very sinister.
