    Mar 12, 2011 - My Obi-Wan ANH saber..... #1

    Hi folks!
    Just thought i'd share my Obi ANH with you.
    It's a bog-standard Parks (boo...hiss....) with improved calc bubbles, nice transistors with decals from JDPilot, and a screw/curved-metally-thing- and alu foil....lots of various paint techniques and some evr so slightly violent hammer work.

    Looks fantastic, like it's spent 20 years in the Tatooine desert. A great finish/paint job goes a long way on a Parks saber, you have a good looking saber.

    That looks great. The Luke V2 and the Obi-wan saber have always been my favorites when it comes to how realistic the weathering looks.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this one actually lit up! Great job on the weathering.

    Reminds me of something I did a couple years ago on a MR ROTJ Luke :



    The feeling of beating up a high end licensed prop replica is priceless lol

    Awesome! It definately looks like it has some age to it. I like it better then any of those that have that pristine look to them. Makes it feel more authentic.

    Damn that's a fantastic transformation if there ever was one - warmest regards mate!!

    I agree that it looks like it's be buried for many years in the desert and its great to see how brilliantly a parks can be modified…

    Although certainly not as worked over as yours, this is how I finished my Parks a few of years ago.

    Cheers for sharing and enjoy..

    Highest regards
