I did get a couple of pictures of this one with my phone that i sent to my buddy Brian that owns this one last night:
 
The camera in the phone makes it look more orange,  but it is a sweet-corn yellow in person on the first sound bank.

The second bank:

Pretty accurate of the color there.

Third bank:

This is basically the same setting I used for the Sith soundfont on Remnant,  Hot Orange.  Better pics tomorrow,  and hopefully a video on Friday.

All done:

  Brass Saber 29 (BS-29)


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lit up:
 

 
It really is yellow in person....the camera likes to pick up too much of the red...I changed the settings in the camera several times butnever got an accurate representation of the shade.
 

Video coming soon....I hope.  ;)

I love how tightly your shroud hugs the hilt. Also, I really like the choke on this saber. It looks alot like the choke on the GCS Ascend, which is the best choke ever IMO.

Nice to see a classic saber get an upgrade with today's tech :)

Classic saber?  It's brand new,  there was no upgrade. ;)

Oh, my mistake, I had thought this was one of your original brass sabers that you were upgrading!

Jay, that shroud work is SUPER nice! It's nice to see that since it's not seen a whole lot any more. I really like the look of this one...A LOT! Props to you, Sir.  ^-^

thank you,  my friend!  It took some time to get tall of those slots looking right,  but then,  the saber did take over a year to finish.   ;D

Looks great!

Guess you went with an RGB instead of GRW like you first mentioned?

GR would have given a nice yellow but then you wouldn't have the purples and blues or greens we see now.

Really cool saber. Sure your friend is happy with the fit and finish and polish on this one. All your sabers are very smartly done.
