Starkiller Offline Junior Member The Force Will Be With You......Always Posts: 25 Thank you received: 3	Quick question (sorry if this is in the wrong place) Does anyone happen to have photos of the shades of blues that SaberForge offer ? I know majority of cameras don't do the blades or colour justice but just so ive got a rough idea of what to expect when I place my order I wanna get the right blue for my Saber : ) Any pictures will be much appreciated Cheers folks : )

But I'll do my best with what I currently have: Deep Blue Light Blue Arctic Blue Cyan Is there a particular blue from the movies that you're going for? Usually it's easier for people to say "I want a RotS Obi-Wan blue," for example, to which we would reply "deep blue is the way to go". Hope this helps!

DarthMario95 Offline Platinum Member Posts: 428 Thank you received: 201	Hmm, for ANH blue I would suggest medium or light blue. Deep blue is perfect for the RotS blue that you see in your sig, Starkiller, but is too deep for the lighter blues you find in the original trilogy.

Yeah, the thin necks can be disassembled. Here's my empty Redeemer. The copper and brass neck pieces are threaded together, and the black grenade section too, but I think they may be glued and I haven't been able to separate them yet. But I know for a fact that the copper and brass pieces are threaded together. The activation box itself also is removable, but the bottom half of the hilt is one piece.

It still might be Cyan, idk, but the green saber is contributing, either way.

BZArcher Offline Platinum Member Posts: 322 Thank you received: 90	I'd really like a saberforge blade that comes in close to this color: Would the Cyan be about right, or do you think I would need to ask for a customized color?

BZArcher Offline Platinum Member Posts: 322 Thank you received: 90	I've tried - I dunno if it's the lighting in the video or just me getting old, but I have a hard time seeing a lot of differences in the spectrum as he goes through the brighter blues to the darker greens.

I work in building supplies where color is crucial. So many of my customers try to pick out colors off of a printed page or from a computer, and usually have it end up being different than they expected.

Please understand there are variances caused by screen settings or printer settings. The best thing I can advise is that every portion of the video is shot using the same conditions so rather than using the video to judge the exact color your color choice will be; consider the video as a reference to show the differences between the colors. (which one is lighter, which one is greener...)

Seeing something in person is always the best method for choosing a color, but with that not being an option just be thorough in your research and be prepared for slight variance from your expectations.
