Title: "Brakim" Custom MHS Saber w/ PRIZM v3.5
Post by: COUNT DOOKU on June 20, 2015, 03:26:12 PM

Hey Saberland and FX Sabers,

I finished this custom a while back, but just now getting around to posting it up here. Brakim started as a request to make a "Futuristic Vader Hilt". Taking influences from styles of minimalism, the auto industry, and the rebooted Tron film. TCSS did some awesome machine work on the middle section lathing out some grip lines. After the base was designed, I added a custom cut shroud inspired from Vader's mask. Then a bit of satin black powder coating finished it up for a final saber I'm quite proud of.

Internal Specs:
Plecterlabs PRIZM v3.5
RGB Custom CREE
3.7v Li-ion System
2W Bass Speaker

Thanks guys. I'll miss making custom hilts like these for the next few years, but it was good to finish on a note like this saber.

Nice work, Austin. Sleek, functional and definitely Vader-esque.  8)

Going out on a high note for sure; streamlined elegant design with an air of deadly efficiency - definitely futuristic and worthy of a Dark Lord of the Sith. BRAVO!
