Oh, that one's my favorite so far, gotta say. I can totally see an Assassin toting one of those in a galaxy far, far away.

Got another one for you guys, a pair actually. These were fun to make:
First up "The Crazy Old Wizard":


Clocking in at almost 5'4" without it's 26" blade, this full bodied staff can't be wielded by just any conjurer of cheap tricks.
The windowed Emitter 6 (along with a blade length adjust, naturally) allows the staff to shed light even when not used as a weapon. The regal and simple Body 2 is an apt extension, and really any smooth sided switch works. Below that is a gray wrapped Staff Extension 1, followed by four Staff Extension 2s, ending in final coupler and a Jade pommel, and silver finish throughout. Perfect walking stick for an old man, or a mythic hero.

Next we have "The Black Istar":


The weapon of a Master, corrupted by the Dark Side. Where once sat a pure white crystal there now resides a red one charged with malice and fear. Slightly longer than it's brother staff, it uses the Venom emitter, Switch 4 and the Reborn body to create some vaguely mace-like edges, followed by two Staff Extension 1s and two Staff Extension 2s, the pommel coupler, and the sinister Relic Pommel.

A new one, for any Elder Scrolls fans around here:

Supposedly wielded by a Force-wielder who carved out a small galactic Empire with it, the heat of it's blade is said to be unparalleled.
It's actually just a very basic katana hilt, using the longest katana emitter and body, Switch 2 and katana pommel, all weathered, and a yellow blade.

Edit: I got TES on the brain and wanted to do another one, so here's:

Wielded by a powerful Consular for whom Sith Lords were a speciality. The Epoch emitter felt like the obvious choice, but I took some liberties with the body, using Switch 4 and Body 3, and ended with the Rebel pommel. The Relic would be perfect if it were a little smaller, but alas. Edit: I'd actually really like to see this in a bronzed/gold hilt.

Wabbajack (fitted with an RGBA LED):



Mehrunes' Razor:



Was also designing ones for the Skull of Corruption and Sanguine Rose, but they ended up the same as Wabbajack with a different emitter, blade color and finish.

This was fun a fun one to do. Couldn't think of a clever, Star Wars name, though:


Uses a Relic pommel, Dissident body, (very appropriate) Mauler switch, and for some reason the Sorcerer emitter made me think of J's slicked back hair. Since that couldn't be green, the blade is (and I think it looks better that way). I'm not 100% sold on the black pommel and body, but I like the contrast with the pale switch/emitter, like Joker's tainted skin. I gotta say, despite the strange colors, I'd use this saber.

Hi Borommakot,

That works well, I can hear Mark Hammill cackling as I look at it! (Don't worry I haven't gone mad check out the Batman games and the Anthony Ingruber thread to see what I mean!)

I had been thinking about a possible Robin/Nightwing themed Saber with yellow, red and green possibly, combined with black like yours!

Kind regards,

For Tyeth

Back with another one:

Adom Jin-sen never asked to become a Jedi. This saber reflects that brooding and disquiet of one who's had greatness thrust upon them. The Fallen emitter was the perfect choice in form and implied background; it's brass ring also denotes the character of the one beleaguered by all this darkness. The Venom switch is there for it's simplicity and small size, while Body 6 and the Sinister Prophecy pommel work in tandem to allude to the layered nature of the character.

The red knob on the Mauler body reminds me of the Joker's acid spitting flower on his jacket. Now I'm imagining how cool a Mark Hamil Joker cackle would be as a boot up sound!

Hi all,

I just thought it would be a cool feature for people in the know, giving the saber a SW and Batman theme. Who knows with the new soundboards in development it may be possible! Or even for the lock-up or blaster sound so you can "taunt" your opponent mid battle with a cackle!

Now I'm on a Batman kick.

Here's one based on Nightwing's escrima sticks:



And here they are when he connects them like a staff:



The Boy Wonder, based on Robin's shield-staff he uses in the Arkham games:



Emitter 8B, katana switch, and venom body.

And finally, one for miss Harleen Quinzel herself:



Made it a pike so she could use it like her mallet or baseball bat, and the Mauler switch so it matches her Mista J (Borommakot's Joker saber).

Ahah, I did almost the same thing for Nightwing's escrima's! It's a pretty freakin' good look. Nice work :)

Im still beating myself up trying to get the right build for a Sith Sabretooth light saber. If anyone has any ideas please share!
The wounded Jedi looks up at the massive man wielding a 6' long light saber! The last words the Jedi hears is "Yes, I am Sith"

I came back to TES in order to do one as Chillrend.

Relic Pommel felt closest to Skyrim's Glass Sword pommel, followed by sophisticated-yet-simple Body 9, Swith 9 in silver (though ideal would be a brass or green finish in the ovals), and Prodigal Son emitter 1.
