First Lightsaber Cross Section
« on: August 22, 2013, 09:17:38 PM »
Inspired by the work of our own Jedi Yar-Nala, I decided to take a crack at my first lightsaber cross section. After fooling around with image after image, idea after idea, this was my final product.



This is how I pictured the internals of my own personal saber were it "real". I'm not nearly the artist that Ray is but I know my way around a lasso tool in Photoshop.  ^-^ :)) I'm open to critiques! Thanks for taking a look!

Welcome to saber building. You've taken your first step into a larger world!

SWEET.

Totally impressed by your work on that Machinimax!!   It looks really amazing. 


The question isn't who is going to let me;  It's who is going to stop me!

Mentioned more of my thoughts on the IRA... but I'll comment on here as well.

Thank you for your kind words. I think you did a really nice job with this... very clean ... and well chosen parts.

What's nice is that you were able to "imagine" what's inside your personal hilt... and that makes your cross section all that more special. :)

Great job.

I am Jedi Yar-Nala.... and I approve this Cross Section. :D

Really nice work !
i love how u use the diff parts here and use them on your own imagination !
one word comes to my mind: "saberbash" like kitbashing with models !
Very inspirating !!!
Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.
