I posted a photo of this in an earlier post but I thought I would show a few pics of my own. I weathered the knobs with black paint and then light sanded them. I also wrapped it in linen that I dyed first with coffee, than I gave it a quick dunk in both brown and black dye. I think it looks good but I think I will change it out for leather soon wrapped in the same spots. I quickly made an amethyst crystal blade plug. I am not sure if I like this and will probably replace it eventually. This saber is very heavy and I like it a lot. I am going to put sound into sometime in the next couple of months. I plan on making a custom stand for it like I did for the Consular. Just wanted to know what you guys thought.

Thats pretty sweet dude. Just looks like a dug up, ancient sith lightsaber, ready to kill a fresh batch of Jedi!

Still impressed by the originality of this hilt and how well detailed it is!

This is a very impressive job I must say. I've never really been into the Sith lightsaber styles exactly, but man, you captured it perfectly here. It's downright scary looking.

I know this was mentioned before, but I can't help but think how true it is... Every time I look at this hilt I'm immediately transported back to Korriban from KOTOR.



Now, stop reading this and get back to scouring the galaxy of Jedi already!

If I could get another saber, I'd get one of his and get a sound upgrade added into it. I checked the ones on his ebay page - :ohmy: . So beautiful.

That is absolutely awesome. If I was a Jedi and saw someone coming with a Lightsaber with a handle like that I would definitely run!

I just bought one of ALWs off eBay (a beautiful green one) which I am looking forward to receiving.

Please keep us posted on the sound upgrade (if you go ahead) as well as the stand.

Will do. I am working on the stand for it now. I will also be attempting the leather wrap this weekend as well. Please let me know how you like your ALW saber.

Thought I would share an update with you. I added leather wrapping because I thought it needed it. I also built a stand to put it on using my laser at work. Welded it together and called it good. I might paint it, or maybe just let it rust...

Beautiful! I love the idea of letting the stand get a nice patina of rust - seems like it would set the whole display off nicely.

Thanks for sharing!
