I ordered an Epoch for my son recently, and I asked for some coloration changes to the hilt that I was not sure could easily be described. So I got out my elementary level "Paint" program, and downloaded a picture of an Epoch, and painted the changes that I wanted. While crude, I think it adequately demonstrates what I had in mind. I sent that picture to Phil via e-mail, just to make sure.

Obviously, his smiths will do it better than I could, and if so, it is gonna be one awesome Epoch!

Copper tried this a while ago, but with white, and unfortunately they couldn't do it. Hope they can make yours happen though!

They responded positively to the idea, I was just not sure they understood exactly where I wanted the coloring, thus the picture.

I anxiously await their reply to the e-mail.

I saw somebody do the opposite, where the inner areas were black while the outside was bare aluminum. It looked kinda cool but I like the way the Epoch looks normally.

I do too, but this is for my son. He wanted something that could be interpreted as Sith, or Jedi, depending on the blade color. He initially went with yellow, but we asked for Quick Disconnects so we could change it to blue, or green down the line.

I think a Disciple with a black wrap could be Jedi or Sith depending on blade color, maybe some light grey weathering could also look nice.

If it had been available a couple of weeks ago when he ordered, he might have agreed with you. As it is, he had his heart set on the Epoch, and since he paid for it himself, he got what he wanted to spend his hard earned cash on. The only reason I did the ordering was because he does not yet have a credit card, so I put it on mine, and he paid me back.

That's pretty awesome; I know I spoke with them recently on some customization I want to get done on an Exhalted and they said they were able to do it, and that's not much different than what it looks like you have there, so hopefully they get back to you wiht a positive answer. Better post some pics of it when it comes in, too!
