Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

Little confused how it going to work?

So we start building after date is set but cant post anything even on this thread till its finished, and even then we send pics to a neutral member who posts them all at once?

is that right?

correct. We will submitt a couple of photos and brief description to a neutral member Once the time is up. This will help keep favoritism at bay. Keep as many wip photos as you want, but just hold them till later.

OK I think I'm in,
I've always fancied turning a new hilt design out of wood but didn't see the point until now :)
 
Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

I would like to get around 20 members in on this. Getting closer.
 
Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

Its going to be short periods of work due to the single digit temps here in the midwest
 
Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

I'd definitely be interested in participating in this
 
Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

Are we going to say every part of this must be a new design?

As she still has the busted saber our versions could if we wanted to, possibly, recycle some parts from said saber.

For instance can a button only similar to, but not exactly like a graflex button? or is that ok?

I don't have any opinion either way or even access to real/replica parts, but would just like to know if its better to think of her as not having the skywalker saber still at all.

Does that make sense, am i overthinking this?

It's your freedom as a designer! No rules from a design point of view. It wouldn't be a design contest if there are rules like that! But please don't give away your ideas here!
 
Re: Build Rey's new saber contest Taking entries

Really want to confirm, but it really does depend on when we decide the deadline will be. I will be out of town a big part of February.

If I say yes and timing doesn't work, can I back out? I have a really solid idea for this.....
