Fantastic work...I can certainly see how polishing that brass overlay could draw blood and earn its Lethal name...those flames are quite spectacular!

As is the "translucent gold" powdercoating...it really looks like a shiny gold...would look good for "electrum" accents on a Jedi Master's saber too eh - did you have to polish the underlying aluminum to a mirror brightness to get that effect?

She's a beauty.
To DREAM the IMPOSSIBLE DREAM. To FIGHT the unbeatable foe. To BEAR with unbearable sorrow. To RUN where the brave dare not go. To RIGHT the unrightable wrong. To LOVE, PURE AND CHASTE, FROM AFAR [-sigh-]. To TRY, when your arms are too weary; to REACH the unreachable Star!... This is my Quest; To follow that Star, no matter how hopeless, no matter how far...

Must RESIST, don't bid, must resist.

Truly an awsome piece of artwork.  I am always amazed at the beautiful sabers you guys put out. Keep up the awesome work.

Hey Onli-Won, thanks for the complements.  Yes, we do have to polish the underlying aluminum to a mirror finish, otherwise you will not get that result so there is quite a bit of prep work.

Je-Rel, we'd be happy to do a render for you and would, of course, accept a commission for a "lightsider" version  ;)
