Its time I introduce myself
« on: February 16, 2010, 04:26:54 PM »
I would like to present my first saber.  It is called resurrection.  The backstory on this saber is simple.  Had Anakin Solo lived to achieve Master, this would have been his saber.  It is influenced by his original saber, his brother Jacen's as well as Luke and Obi Wan's.  It is built with MHS parts as well as a few extras I threw in.  It has an Anakin MS soundboard, a P4 green LED and is powered by 4AAAs.  I will be completing the crystal chamber (not visable when closed) and adding it to the chassis in the next few weeks.  I would say this saber is 90% complete.










I absolutely love this saber.  It duels well as a two handed saber and also spins well, balanced at the choke.

Very nice, looks great to handle and spin. And I really like your choice of that dark bronze/brown instead of the traditional lighter bronze and the way it plays off of the black and silver.

That's great!  IMO, not enough people try to tackle EU characters... let alone speculate on their would-be futures. 

14 posts and this saber? hit the ground running, eh?  :D ;D  Keep up the good work!

welcome! Love the colors, as Hullbreach said, I too appreciate the darker bronze with the Green.  (brass seems to be a bit too popular for my humble tastes)

I also love that you have a story for your saber, a real "what if"...

Keep up the good work!  I look forward to the other 10% as well as your future projects!

Thank you to everyone for your comments.  I have only a few posts now, but I have been reading here and at TCCS for a while.  Sorry the pics lack detail, perhaps I can take some better ones soon.  This is a great forum full of very helpful and knowledgable people.  I thank you all for sharing your knowledge.  At the moment I have three lightsaber projects going.  They are all in different stages, but you can be sure the building bug has gotten me.

Looks someone did his homework!  Nice job!  I made the pictures "clickable" for the full size image,  btw.

This is a really nice looking saber. I love the dark bronze and the leather grip section as well.
Great work!

A very serious no nonsens saber you have there and the grips are macho man.
If I had to go to war, I would pick this saber out of a bunch.
It really looks very cool.
