Star Wars The Acolyte (tv series)

[universaljoint]

I like that lightsaber. Simple. Not overly complicated looking and crazy ornate like so many have become. I don't get why it has the two types of belt hangers though. I would have thought a Wookie lightsaber would have more wood and or bone in it (part of the grip, or a simple inlay- nothing crazy). Though bone would be a better visual contrast to the dark fur and mustard tunic. Just a more natural look. But basic is good.


The mustard tunic is okay. I mean, I don't know what else I'd expect to see on a Wookie.

Being that Joonas playing this wookie makes me wonder how different from chewie he will be? I do hope we get to see some wookie action, fierce saber dueling of some sort.

Interesting the saber has a covertec and a D-ring

I can find faults with that lightsaber, and the belt ...

It does not make sense that it has signs of being subjected to high temperatures, unless it is made from Cortosis and someone has been trying to cut it in half with another lightsaber.
Otherwise the lightsaber would have malfunctioned severely, and I find it unlikely that Jedi would keep parts of a malfunctioning lightsaber.

The Jedi symbol as belt buckle? Really?

In the production of the prequels, Lucasfilm had a rule: Jedi did not wear black. Dark brown: sure. Just not pure black. Some things happened to look like black on screen but it was actually coloured in person.

I don't know what's worse, that lightsaber design or a man bun on a Wookie.

Don't hate me because i'm beautiful!

George forgot to follow his rule

Dark brown, purple, blue. No spot of black in these costumes.
Barris' top is actually a ribbed fabric, with horizontal panels on the front in a slightly different blue. Can you see it in this picture? No, it all looks black, but it really isn't.

 

[guabe]

Not black?

So if that's not black then this ain't black either. Just super dark brown

 

[Captain Dunsel]

It's even worse:

 

[Psab keel]

I saw the costumes in person back in 2016. Dark shades of blue or brown, but not black.

Came here to say the same thing haha

here is a better picture of Ula. It's like Hans Hoth Jacket. Everyone thought it was blue or grey when really it's brown.

It's not an argument. Just stating facts.

Here is a good example of how camera color calibration and lighting effects the color of a fabric. Same costume two different cameras

Flash off it's black.

Flash on it's brown

Stranger how? Like one is made out of Ewok bone? that would be pretty cool if Ewok bones were like ivory so people hunt them down and make cool stuff out of them.

 

[guabe]

maybe because of this Halliwax ?

Heat staining (or faux heat staining) has been used a lot on Disney/Lucasfilm Star Wars lightsabers and blasters. I think Kylo Ren's was the first to use it. Then on his Jedi lightsaber. And Rey's. And there might be a couple others.

It's hard to find the english version. It pops on ebay every now and then for around $500 but goes quickly.
