Sorry for changing the thread's name, i thought this one would be more appropiate.
Formerly called: first steps into mini lightsaber modding..
Well i have some updates on the Vader ROTJ.
I will be starting paint job on the Luke V2 tomorrow, but for now i leave you with the Vader progress:
First I cut these parts with a saw and then sanded the interior of the shroud so that it fit the graflex hilt:
(clicky pics)
Notice the little button on the left of the first pic? Well I used that and half a transistor for the control box:
I found a screw/rod that fit perfectly in the hole left by the graflex emmiter rod:
I still need to work out the emmiter d-ring cylindric holder/part, the latch, the knob on the back part of
the emmiter (it's already there but not glued yet), the allen bolts and the paintjob.
For now this is what it looks like:
Any tips, suggestions, questions or comments welcome.
More pics tommorrow if I actually get some work done.
