Ever make something you're proud of, and at the same time ashamed you even bothered? You know what it is. Go look.




Its about 275 polys before you subpatch/mesh-smooth it. It is VERY much a work in progress. The thing I am most pleased with is the lanyard eyelet and the chain link for hanging it.

Comments, criticism, flames, etc. appreciated. Well maybe not the flames.

I think Carl was limited by the size of the original pic. :D

Steak, the materials are all just stock materials from the Net. I don't remember where I go the chrome, but I adjusted the tint for a darker cast. The darker metal is a blued steel with a slight tint change. The only other materials in use are from the September 2002 Newtek Texturing contest. I can't remember the creator's name, but I have it at home.

As for a name? Its just a lightsaber hilt. Then again, they have names in Jedi Academy, so I guess this one could be called.. um... Stone.

first i thought it was a spark plug....
then i thought it was a shock...
then i saw the file name and realised I just dont like Star Wars all that much...
It is very well done though...
The area around the link in the third image is just.. odd... the reflection is bright around the link, but just below that its darker, almost a rust colour..

[color=66ff00]Very nice, I like the design, it's very functional and thus more realistic. :nod:

The blade length is 130cm long, I read that in 'I Jedi' though so it's not guaranteed to be accurate...

Of course I'm simply going to use this as an excuse to show my own RL™ lightsaber. ;) (and my sucky photography skills)

[color=66ff00]I made it a few years ago. I'm flattered that you could think it was one of the parks sabers, they're quite good. :nod: [/color]

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

If it was an actual working saber you and everything else would turn into a very hot mush. ;)

If you can get a less harsh light on that and give me closer pics at multiple angles, maybe I can make that in 3d. :D

Thorn, could you upload a pic with the section you're talking about highlighted/circled/whatever? I'm not sure I see what you mean. :(
